    Food was excellent but for the quality of dining experience we expected better service. Our waitress had no suggestions for food or cocktails (almost like it was an inconvenience to be asked) and seemed less than attentive and not very friendly.

    Cafe Malta is a hidden gem. They have a seasonal menu but we enjoyed the gnocchi bleu as an appetizer (pretty much a meal in itself), the braised short rib is always a hit and the pasta dish I had (Magliata I think it’s called) was pretty good as well.

    We had a birthday party at Carve Barton Creek 12/20/24. It was a very enjoyable experience because of Colton (manager) and Lexi, our server . We wanted to change tables. Colton was very kind and accommodating. He checked in with us several times throughout our dinner celebration. Every bite and sip Lexi brought us was delicious. The eight of us tried almost everything. Thanks for another fun night!!

    What a delicious gem hidden in a South Austin strip mall! Food was absolutely delicious! Prices were more than fair, especially for drinks, happy hour pricing, although we weren’t there for happy hour, was noted as EVEN better! We had a bit of trouble with English language barrier with our server, but got everything we wanted and done correctly, and there were a few pestering flies throughout the meal but overall a truly well done restaurant that is completely deserving of your patronage. We will be back!
