Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Downtown

I'm a regular here so I'll be brief. Chef/proprietor Gianfranco makes a great menu of dinner dishes based on the best ingredients available. His pizza dough and bread dough are first rate, in my opinion the best bread in Austin. Pizzas are the standards along creative pies. The wine vault is unique, with Italian standards but also from countries East of Italy, some superb. The staff is attentive. My favorite Italian in town.

Outstanding service, food and ambience. The server was friendly, professional and helped to customize the dining experience with great suggestions. The octopus, oysters, crab cake, desserts… five stars

Just really tasty yummy food!! And cute place with attentive staff.

Great deal on Thursday, half of chicken fried steak! They also have delicious Mac n cheese and the best strawberry cake! Very relaxed vibe, waiter was awesome, and they have a nice little view outside! Valet parking only ($6) bc they have very limited parking on site but may be able park across the street if needed

My w2ife and I go to the Grove often, and we always enjoy it. The food and the wine are both consistently excellent. I also appreciate that the folks who work there make us feel welcome-- almost a home away from home. It is a great place.
