Luxury takes root in the heart of Austin at Nido, bringing the charm of the area together with the culinary techniques of coastal Europe, all perched above Lady Bird Lake and the energetic cityscape.

Nido is located on the rooftop of The Loren at Lady Bird Lake - recently named by Conde Nast Traveller and Travel & Leisure Magazine as "one of the hottest hotel openings in the world." Nido nods to the surrounding and native Hill Country, giving diners a one-of-a-kind respite to experience worldly-travel through food. Nido’s selection of carefully crafted, seasonal menus are internationally-inspired with a focus on classical technique.

Reservations are available for inside the dining room and the dining tables in the bar. Lounge seating is available on a walk in basis in the bar and on the terrace for drinks and snacks.

    Great amazing experience! Great food, views and drinks. When we were seated they only had available seats outside where it was windy and 40 degrees F. It was very uncomfortable and they did their best to switch tables and get us to a point to enjoy the evening. I believe there is an opportunity to make the outdoor patio more comfortable such as adding more heating towers and blankets during the winter. Overall, our evening ended on a good note. Will still come to visit every now and then. Thank you for our evening!

    We went for brunch. I mentioned in our reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary. They gave us complementary champagne and our Bloody Mary’s that we ordered. The view of the river was perfect. We watched the row boats practicing. Due to the cold weather we were unable to seat outside but we sat in the lounge and had a wonderful view. The food was very good. Highly recommend!

    great view, vibe and service BUT I spent almost as much on the PARKING ($16) as I did on the small meal. Stop the madness, contract for lower flat rate with the 3rd party hotel valet service.

    What a great place for drinks, bites and Austin skyline and Town Lake views/pictures! We enjoyed excellent service, lovely ambiance, and wonderful food and drinks; their slightly spicy Bloody Mary was delicious. Smash burger was tasty, as was the Salmon Hash from the Brunch menu. It was very potato heavy but still very very good!!
