Best Restaurants for Business Meals in South Austin

Best meal we’ve had in quite some time (and we like to treat ourselves to top tier dining in the Austin area)! Everything was so flavorful, I can’t imagine you can order “wrong”. Starter bread with dipping sauces was a delicious warm up to the whole experience. Dinner order was Pan Seared Fish, Lamb chops, Roasted Carrots, Mushrooms, Israeli Salad, Truffle Fries. Drinks were Biscotti Espresso Martini and a bottle of Martin Woods Cabernet Franc. Dessert was Crème Brûlée and Tiramisu. We’ll definitely be back.

Very pretty place, including the hotel itself. Spent some time at the bar downstairs and then up at Geraldine’s. It seemed almost quiet in comparison, which was great for dinner and then around 9 o’clock. The band came on and it was extremely loud but if I was coming to see the band that would’ve been great. If I had started my dinner 10 minutes before they went on I don’t think we would’ve been able to talk that much. But depending on what you’re wanting to do either experience would be great. Just good to know what you’re getting into. It worked out perfect for us as we had a long three hour dinner and then caught at the beginning of the band before moving on. Good times will definitely come back.

Very reliable place to take family and friends. When are favorite table was taken we took to eating at the bar and still had a great meal and enjoyed our time. The manager was so great that not only did he acknowledge us but went to great lengths to make sure we were happy. Can't wait to go back!

Perla's is Excellent! Went for a date-night dinner. Previously had only done the patio (apps/ bloodys, etc... which is great as well!) but do yourself a favor and have a proper meal there. Service is attentive and professional. Quality of food and flavor profile is something else ! Kicking myself for neglecting this spot the last 15+ years.

We had not been back to Red Ash since before the Pandemic. Shame on us! Now we certainly will make a new reservation as soon as possible, which will probably be a few months from now. Red Ash is so popular that it is that difficult to get a table. But the wait is certainly worth it. This evening we tried the Octopus a la Plancha at our server, Emma's suggestion. Octopus for our first time. It was wonderfully delicious and tender. For dinner we split Frutti di Mare, a wonderful selection of seafood laid on a bed of the best black and white sphagettini. Cooked perfectly! Emma was the perfect hostess and we were able to reconnect with Brand Favata, our favorite server from six years ago. It seems that very few few employees leave Red Ash. It is such a wonderful restaurant!! We'll be back very soon.
