The ambiance was charming, particularly the well-designed bar and comfortable couches, and the service was very friendly. However, the menu was quite limited and the wine selection was lacking, which was surprising for a wine bar. Additionally, there were no dessert options available. This may be why the restaurant was not as crowded as expected.

Two menu items were unavailable due to the lack of customers. However, the highlight was the mussels, which were outstanding - perfectly cooked and seasoned. They were definitely worth trying.

The classic mussels, cheese board and wagyu beef were excellent. The waitstaff was very attentive, and they have a great wine list. Their beer and cider list however was a bit limited, and I wish their menu was a bit more extensive. The interior is very chic and cozy. Overall a good restaurant.

Clean and inviting, friendly staff, and nice mix of midrange drinks. Plenty of seating, lively atmosphere, you can't go wrong. Really nice happy hour too, which goes 6-8, which accommodates some of us later shift folks which FEW places in Austin do anymore. I had to bump it down a star due to our server. Not sure what was up, but hey, it happens. I'm sure this is rather out of the ordinary.
