La Volpe Austin

I came here for my Valentine's dinner and the atmosphere, service, and food quality was perfect. This establishment is a local business with a personal chef that customizes the menu every few weeks... and let me tell you: each dish we had contained ingredients that were perfectly thought out to the exact measurement. Our server was very friendly and our food came within a timely fashion. Every dish is hand made fresh in the kitchen so they are able to customize your order to your dietary needs. I am usually not a fan of seafood or salmon but decided to try the salmon en brodo and it was one of the most tasteful dishes I've EVER had. The flavor was rich to the extent that I had to request a spoon to make sure I get every last drop of the sauce. The lamb chop was cooked to perfection (medium well) and frankly, it almost tasted more similar to a steak. The smell that often is associated with lamb wasn't present, and personally I view that as a great thing. The purple carrot mash was phenomenal and paired so well with the lamb! It tasted JUST like mashed potatoes, but so much healthier. I wasn't the biggest fan of the avocado chocolate mousse. Couldn't taste any avocado, and for a vegan dish, it was good. It's just nothing too memorable and it was a tiny little portion. I overall recommend this place to anyone with a tasteful palette or looking for an intimate atmosphere!

Amazing spot in downtown! The only thing that surpassed the delicious, locally sourced, scratch made food was the outstanding service! Our server Brandon was world class and the front of the house manager, Paul, made my Birthday an amazing experience. I look forward to going back and supporting a great local restaurant and its servers.
