About Arlo Grey by Kristen Kish

Arlo Grey, a restaurant by celebrated chef Kristen Kish, offers a memorable dining experience with a focus on high-quality ingredients and creative dishes. Guests should try the Mafaldini mushroom pasta, served family-style with its rich umami mushroom sauce and shaved parmesan. The AG Grilled Sourdough, recommended for its flavorful olive topping, and the AG burger are also popular choices. Many guests praise the thoughtful presentation of dishes and the use of Central Texas ingredients, especially highlighting the crispy rice, black cod, and the peach upside-down cake for dessert. The restaurant's scenic wooded view near the river creates a quiet, secluded atmosphere perfect for a special occasion. Highlights include fried steamed buns and grilled oyster mushrooms, which many find delicious and comforting. The sourdough paired with an olive and feta spread is a favorite starter, and the burrata and rigatoni are highly recommended by staff. While some guests experienced inattentive service at the bar, others found the staff attentive and helpful, offering great drink recommendations and personalized service. The overall experience emphasizes the quality and creativity of the food, making Arlo Grey a worthy visit despite its higher price point. The cozy setting and excellent food make it more than just a meal—it's a special outing, with many guests eager to return.
