Best restaurants near me in West Austin / Westlake, TX

Elegant but comfortable with great food and wine. Everything down to the playlist is curated perfectly. Easily one of the two best places in Austin.

Took my girlfriend here for her birthday and had overall amazing experience. Server was very knowledgeable on the food menu and drink list. Also made our night with a sparkling wine toast and kept checking in consistently.

This was our first time to J. Carver's since moving downtown in December and it far-exceeded expectations...it was an awesome experience, amazing food & cocktails, and the ambience was fantastic...we will be regulars!

Food was great- Service was fantastic. My aunt stopped through town and we decided last minute dinner plans. We were obvi underdressed but the staffed made us feel welcome. Our server picked up on the fact we will be chatting quite a bit and left us to catch up (great timing). I knew my aunt was gonna fight for the bill but I already told him- I’m taking it. And I’m glad he held up the bargain and didn’t give in to the sweet old lady eyes. She truly is a wonderful lady and you made this evening make her feel wonderful. So thank you to the server from table 209. <3

Memorable birthday experience with fine Mediterranean food including a shallot hummus, perfect lamb chops, butternut squash and several other shared entrees. Our perfect server Gian Luigi from Puglia, Italy helped make the evening fun and educational with his knowledge about wines and engagement with our family about regional Italian cooking questions. All staff were friendly, helpful with our table request and efficient.
