About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Charming
Great for creative cocktails

Just as in Italy where the food is genuine and locally sourced, you'll find the same at Intero with farm-to-table Italian cuisine. At its core, the concept behind Italian cooking stems from necessity and gratitude for regionally available ingredients. Intero, translating to “whole’’ in Italian, embraces this concept utilizing local ingredients from their entirety, paired with traditional Italian techniques and cooking sensibilities. This naturally sustainable approach allows for innovative, yet familiar dishes that highlight the seasonal availability of what’s grown and raised in Texas.

Additionally, Intero provides an authentic nod to the sweet side of Italy offering specialty house-made artisan chocolates (including truffles, barks, and sipping chocolate) along with other traditional Italian desserts in classic, seasonal and unique flavors.

Enjoy various Amari, select wines and craft cocktails indoors or out, set in Intero's modern casual atmosphere.

Our friends Adam and Erin recommended Intero and we could not be happier with the overall experience! The food, service and ambience was exceptional! I called it the 4th secret Michelin Star of Austin! It felt like we got to create a core memory there celebrating our good friend, Erin’s birthday, and that is priceless. Thanks to everyone at Intero for making it so special.

Intero has exceptional, seasonal dishes at reasonable (but still Austin) prices. Their service is attentive and kind without being intrusive. Chandler and Sam made us feel welcome and like they were actively glad we were there. The on-site chocolatier is such a fun, unique little add to the evening. We’ll be back for our next special occasion.
