The Kitchen

4.5 stars Great new addition to the ATX dining scene. It's located in the new 6G residential building. I love the decor here and the service was great even for a new spot that just recently opened. The menu choices are interesting and more creative than most of the other spots around downtown. Food here was generally very good. Food:Crispy cauliflower - didn't taste much of the cauliflower but the fried bits were goodBeets - very goodCrab fried rice - excellent with lumps of crab meatSquid ink Lo mein with lobster - very good Grilled oysters - delicious and not overcookedBone marrow - very good with the lamb but not as good as the Comedor bone marrow tacos Churros - decent; very soft and fluffy Goat cheese cheesecake - very goodMousse dome - decent

Place is beautiful. We shared the tomahawk, which was amazing. We ordered the carrots and then ended up ordering a second serving. Incredibly delicious. Also, try the churro doughnuts..... sooo good!

It was a pleasant experience! The wine was good, the bone marrow was probably the only thing that stuck out as a good item. The steak was extremely salty. It would have been nice to have like some bread or something at the start too. It wasn't very busy, the servers were super nice. It was very dark in the restaurant and the menus are printed in VERY small font which made it difficult to read. Interesting options for sure but I likely would not go out of my way to return or recommend.

Food was soooo delicious. We got Indian tacos, crab rice and steak. Oh man, the Indian tacos were outta this world. Ordered it 2nd time. The service was exemplary. Both Leigh-Ann & Gary are excellent. We talked for a long time about how the Musks turn everything they touch into gold (wish I could have said hi to Kimbal & Elon). The ambiance was lovely. Definitely coming back for food and drinks.

Had an amazing dinner here! There are people leaving reviews that are purely political, and they should be ashamed of themselves. Go eat here and then be real with yourselves. The food was amazing. Some of the dishes were special and outstanding (the Crispy Cauliflower, Gnocchi, and the Grilled Oysters), and some were only amazing (the Denver Steak was a bit too salty for me, but still very good). But there was nothing mediocre. The hostess and our server and everybody else we came in contact with were incredibly friendly. We felt well taken care of. We will definitely go back again since we are locals. This is one to put on your list for sure.

My new favorite spot. The food and service were exceptional and extremely unique. The fried oyster was ridiculous. The restaurant was beautiful and very clean.

Had dinner here last night and was not impressed! Service is MEH & food was not good at all. We really wanted to love this place because a Musk owns it but it's really lacking! Gave it 2 stars because the ambience was nice!

Would have provided 5 stars but the restaurant was so cold the experience wasn't as nice as it could have been and the music was off putting. Rap and dance wasn't what I would expect at a place like this. The restaurant looks unwelcoming from outside, in fact it doesn't look open. We live in the area and have walked by it several times without really knowing it was there. But once inside you are greeted with a beautiful ambience, vaulted ceilings and an upscale but very comfortable even homey environment. We didn't have reservations so we sat at the bar. The service was excellent, the bar was busy but we were greeted quickly. She explained the shareable menu and made some recommendations. We had the carrots, the cabbage, beets and the KC steak. A few glasses of wine and the cheesecake rounded out our experience. Bartender was great, funny and she had everyone laughing and talking together. Each dish was delicious. Surprisingly delicious for how simple it seems. Flavorful, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. They are not making anything outrageous just doing good food very well. We just moved to the area but this has been our best experience in Austin and one of the best we've had in years.

Joseph was our server.. he had great service and explanations for each dish. The KC strip was very good, the cauliflower was super unique and equally delicious. The oysters might be the freshest I've tasted in Austin. The old fashions were smoked well and they did a customer super dirty porn star blue cheese martini. Loved the dimmed ambiance, high ceilings and bar aesthetics. Might come back just for the oysters!

This place is an absolute disaster. So pricey, and both the food and service are horrible. Went for dinner on Saturday night of their opening weekend, and waited 45 minutes for a drink. 2 of our plates were served before the martini came out. When my martini did come out, it was made wrong. The person I was dining with didn't get his drink -- that he ordered as soon as we sat down -- until he asked for the check. Even worse, the manager came over and offered dessert on the house because of the drink debacle. They then ADDED THE DESSERT TO OUR TAB, in addition to leaving our drinks on the tab. The food was incredibly below average for the $$$ price tag, but the service is an absolute clown show. 0% chance I ever return.
