- CCarlaVIPNashville •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoFirst time: Made reservations about two months in advance— the place was packed! Everyone was either celebrating something or spending time with loved ones. A great atmosphere! The food was outstanding, a great selection of wines and liquors at the bar. Service was faster than expected, especially considering how busy the place was. Reasonable prices all-around and excellent experience from the staff and the atmosphere.More infoRed Ash ItaliaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.9
- SSammiMiami - Dade •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoEverything was great! Hostess and server were very friendly and helpful. I’ve visited the location in Miami several times and it was nice having a location here in Austin as well and everything is just as good! I got the squid ink tonnareli and it was spicy and delicious. Vibe and ambiance was nice, entire restaurant was spacious. Highly recommended having a reservation?More infoNorth Italia - Austin 2nd StreetPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown•4.6
