Wow this was good! We came here for our anniversary and really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. Service top notch too. Strongly recommend their sourdough bread and sourdough ice cream.
Ordered 4 dishes for two. Mozzarella outstanding. Sour dough, amazing. The rest, was ok. Under flavored and the pasta, thought was award winning, too al dente. Was hoping for much better
Simply amazing! Recently dined at Arlo Grey after it being on my list for a while. I will definitely return and try anything on the menu because I trust Chef Kish with any ingredient!
Wonderful evening spent in this beautiful restaurant. There were 5 of us so we were able to order every item on the first 2 sections of the menu. This is my favorite way to try a new restaurant- a few bites of everything. Each item was delicious! Would definitely go back. Have been a fan of Kristen on TV and her restaurant lived up to expectations!
Ordered 4 things to share. 2 were phenomenal, 2 were good but not hot enough and lacking flavor. Also had dessert which was unbelievable. Overall an amazing meal but high expectations for a restaurant like this and you expect perfection for the price. Service was amazing as well!
Went here with my husband for our wedding anniversary. They knocked it out of the park! Great food, perfectly from start to finish! The waitress, Trista, did an excellent job!! For such exceptional service, I’m shocked at how affordable it is, very well priced! I would go back here in a heartbeat, what a great food experience!!!

We chose not to take the pre-fix as it was fish heavy that evening, and we wanted some pork and steak. We selected our own coursed menu and loved it! Every dish was perfectly sized to share but still be part of a multi-course meal. Dim lighting makes it romantic, but buzzing environment also makes it good for a group.

Place is closed Monday, Tuesday. I tried the Kanpachi crisp and the Mafaldini, they are just average. The sashimi is fresh, the sauce is ok. Pasta could use a bit more mushroom. Sauce for the pasta is a bit on the salty side. Atmosphere is great though.

I have no idea how people are giving this place anything less than 5 stars. Everything we ordered was absolutely phenomenal and we had such a great time having dinner together as the sun was setting. We were also pleasantly surprised with free champagne and a congratulation card at our table.
If you get a chance, check out the bathrooms. They look super cool. The prices are also freakin great for food of this quality. I don't even know how they aren't charging more. Food like this would easily cost an arm and a leg in Los Angeles.
Great experience and I'd love to come back again next year since we will be here again for ACL anyway.

Our family of 6 went to celebrate my husband’s birthday . The ambiance was beautiful and the service was outstanding. We were familiar with the chef from winning Top Chef and it was high on our Austin visit to dine at this restaurant. The experience was lovely, the food innovative & artistically presented , more importantly.. absolutely delicious! Our family loves to share plates , so this was perfect . Arlo Grey made a very memorable evening for all of us and we Thank You very much! Looking forward to another experience on a next visit in town❤️

We ate here last night and ordered the pork chop, which absolutely dropped me to my knees. It was so good.

Incredible experience with Taco as our server. Crispy rice, malfaldini, halibut, and some excellent dessert. Taco elevated the evening with his story-telling and knowledge of the menu. Highly recommend requesting him.

When we stepped into Arlo Gray, my wife and I knew we were in for a culinary treat. The atmosphere is a perfect blend of elegance and warmth, with natural lighting and unique décor. The service from Ms. Bran and the team was impeccable; our server was knowledgeable, attentive without being intrusive, and genuinely passionate about the menu. Our starter was the unique and flavorful Burrata —a delightful start that set the bar high. For our second course, we opted for the Crispy Rice and it was nothing short of amazing. The combination of ingredients are not what you'd expect but worth the trip for this dish alone. To finish, we went with the Fish and Pork protein's which were packed with flavors and a great finish to the evening. We couldn't have been happier with the menu items we picked! Overall, Arlo Gray offers an amazing dining experience that combines exquisite food, attentive service, and a cool and hip atmosphere. It's the perfect place for a special occasion or simply to indulge in a memorable night out. We can't wait to return!
This is our third time dining here, and it is just spectacular every time. The menu changes seasonally, but they have some things on the menu that they keep year round. I'm trying not to wear myself out on it but I'd love to eat there again tonight.
Food was amazing!!! Must stop in Austin, TX even if you never watched Top Chef! And if allowed ask to be seated in Taco's (yes like the food) section - such an attentive and engaging server.
