Everything is delicious, go with friends so you can try everything. The favors are bold & everything is homemade & fresh. Restaurant has a great vibe. The cocktails are also amazing

1st day of their new French themed brunch. Def get the baguette. French omelette really good n traditional. Heads up: pastries on cart are $3-5/piece

Great personalized service! Mentioned that I was vegan in the reservation and everything was tasty! Loved the eggplant dish the best. Everything was off menu, so no guarantees on the same experience

The dim sum carts were fun, and everything we ate was amazing. I have to say though the best course was the kale and carrot cake for dessert. Mind blowing good. Cocktails were also excellent.

"Order the menu, and grab whatever catches your fancy from the roaming dim sum-style carts filled with special dishes. Make sure to get the handmade pastas and knock-out desserts." -Eater 38 Read more

Dim sum, velveteen rabbit... Just about everything farm to market. Small bite plates, so enjoy a little of alot. Only downfall... Shared restroom area.

Excellent Rainey street eatery featuring an eclectic menu full of fun flavors. A must visit while in Austin.

An amazing amazing place!! My taste buds are still overwhelmed with how good the food was.

They'll try to turn your table incredibly fast so you need to set your own pace. Food is a B/B+. Some dishes are amazing, others are a waste.

Farm to table local & all are small plates. The $8 for a 1/4 of bread (no butter) about four small slices, exemplifies the pretentious but sometimes hilarious service. Think Portlandia.

The cacio e Pepe at dinner is excellent. The steak as well.

The desserts are unreal, especially the tres leches

Menu changes daily. Pastas are to die for. Hidden gem.
Jennifer ThomasJanuary 22, 2016
Dim sum (small plates) that come out on carts at dinner! Definitely get the Sunchokes

The broccilini will bring me back. Nice wines too.

They mill their own grains in house to make their pastas/breads/pastries!

Get the cacio e pepe. You won’t regret it!
Erin GApril 27, 2017
Food was good but definitely pricey. If you know what you're getting into, I'm sure it's great!
Samantha SmithMay 22, 2016
Burrata and all the pasta dishes are great.
VoniaMay 27, 2016
The carts with tapas and ordering cards that emulate dim sum. Priceless.
Ben ZweigFebruary 6, 2016
Ask to say hello to the chef! Save room for dessert.
Marta HorodetskaApril 2, 2018
Mmmm, maple pecan sonoran tart. Love!
Connie RecchiniFebruary 17, 2016
The lamb tartare and burrata toast are killer. The desserts not so much.

What a bomb ass meal. Liked brunch so much we’re coming back for dinner.
Chris TopherNovember 11, 2015
Dim sum goodness and amazing service!
RaniaSeptember 26, 2018
Love the concept, setting and vibe but most of the food turned out bland. For the price there are better places in downtown
Porter MasonNovember 8, 2018
Bread. Crab. Everything.
Hailey NguyenNovember 25, 2017
Trendy farm-to-table place, interesting concept but food is too salty
Alyssa WJuly 14, 2017
Very vegan friendly. They customized many dishes and even made a vegan dim sum item.
