Great restaurant -I’ve never been to Italy, but I feel like this is as close as it gets in Austin. They have a nice outdoor space out front by the entrance. We went there on a Thursday night, and were able to get seats at the bar. The bar tenders there were so awesome. Needless to say the food did not disappoint. The fresh pasta was so tender. Honestly, this is the best gnocchi I’ve ever had. Each one was like hitting into a soft clue. My only regret is not haven’t gotten the pizza.

Our first time here and everything was absolutely perfect! The food was delicious, full of flavor, texture and beautifully presented. Daniel at the bar gave us the best dining experience. Found our new favorite restaurant in Austin. We will be back!!!!!

Delicious food and great ambiance. From the moment you walk in, the hostess was so welcoming and kind. Our server Chloe was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Food was incredible from the fresh ricotta appetizer to the house made truffles for dessert. 10/10 recommend

Intero is an easy 5 stars. Our waiter, Veyua, was one of the best we have had, genuinely lovely and attentive. I ordered the duck and found it too gamey for my palate, though the risotto was one of the best I have ever had. Without hesitation they offered to bring another entrée, even though it felt like the issue was on me. I tried the roasted pork and OMG, it was phenomenal, easily the best thing I have eaten in a while. Stellar service, thoughtful hospitality, and food that hits. I appreciate the entire team and will be back soon.

THIS WAS A 10/10 We got the bolognese pasta and the roasted potato and garlic pizza everything was super good the atmosphere was dark whenever we were there at around 9 but our waitress was amazing super friendly and after we ate we felt full but still super light. The pasta was cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of seasoning and chew, the pizza had almost a thin crust but a thick outer crust was very good. The only thing i would say is that if they ask you if you want your pizza to be brought out when it’s ready or whenever the pasta is ready I would ask for it to be brought out when it’s ready so it can be hot but overall amazing food.

Good food with decent service, the ingredients freshness could be felt in the dishes. The ambiance was decent but felt a little crowded especially during the peak dinner time. The waiter was kind and energetic, he explained the menu very well. Would definitely recommend for a date night.

Great service and good ambience, focaccia and the oyster mushroom pizza were great. Pork was well cooked and had lot of flavor.

Tried their vegetarian menu, their mafalde pasta was one of the best we’ve had. The burrata with fried eggplant was not bad, but also not excellent. The service can be significantly improved. The staff at the bar was super friendly and attentive, however the table staff wasn’t friendly at all. Felt like he was just checking boxes.

4.5/5 This is our second visit to Intero and they’ve been consistently wonderful. The service has always been kind and prompt. We ordered their charred cabbage, burrata, family style beef which was a briased beef culatello with creamed greens, and brown butter cake with cinnamon gelato. They all tasted great and portions were fair. When we were here last, their pasta dishes were also superb. Getting a reservation wasn’t difficult which, along with the overall dining experience, puts this place a notch above many of the other fancy places in town. Highly recommended!

This is a great date night spot. The service was exceptional and the food was good. It’s a creative take on modern Italian cuisine. The best part of the meal was the brown sugar cake.

Liked the food and drinks! But one moment with a dessert 🍨 that needs to be addressed here. Gelato and a prosecco pour sounds great on the menu. The real life version is kinda bread crumbs soup. Would be great to make some adjustments otherwise the whole dinner experience is ruined…

Intero has the highest price to food quality menu of any restaurant I have eaten in. For example, the broccoli salad basically felt alive on the plate. This makes sense as they proudly share all of the farmers they do business with to get such high quality and fresh ingredients. We had a wagyu cut served family style, focaccia and cheese and the grapefruit sorbet. Every dish was amazing with complex but not competing flavors and freshness. All made in house! They are a scratch kitchen, which means that if you get there for a later reservation like we did, there may be an entree or two that is already sold out. We shed some small tears for the pork shoulder, but now we know that we just have to go back and take the time to get there before 8:30. My only bones to pick at all for Intero are the lack of a good non-alcoholic beer option and the atmosphere of the restaurant itself. Offering three Athletic Brewing options like Upside Dawn, Athletica & All Out would cover most beer tastes well. Sadly, the atmosphere does not match the quality of the food or the service the staff gives. A lot in there needs some love, the tables are pretty chipped up, it was pretty cold (tho it is December), and the art and or other ways of making it cozy inside are missing. I think working with someone who has a bit of design sense and this place could look great for not too much money. That being said, Intero is still going to be our go to restaurant for a treat night out as a couple or meeting up with friends for dinner.

My husband and I came here to celebrate a birthday, and overall we had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and thoughtfully prepared, which really made the evening feel special. We ordered the grilled redfish and the risotto — the redfish stood out as the star of the meal, cooked perfectly and full of flavor, they used Thai basil in the sauce instead of regular basil, and the grilled fish had smoky flavor. The risotto was good, I loved the touch of hazelnut and peach, but not quite at the same level. We ordered each entree individually and the portion is big. If you came here before 9/14 they’re doing restaurant week special but I personally think the individual dishes worth the value more. As a sweet surprise, the staff brought out a birthday cake, which was a lovely touch. We also tried the truffle dessert (amazing truffle!) and panna cotta , both of which were excellent. The only downside was that, since we visited on a Sunday night, we felt a bit rushed once dessert arrived. Shortly after serving it, the staff let us know another party had checked in for our table, which made us feel like we needed to leave before we were ready. That said, the food and presentation were memorable, and I would recommend this restaurant for the food, the service is ok.

A beautiful restaurant in the heart of Austin! The food is absolutely delicious however, this place is not for the vegetarians. We ordered bottle of wine, around 4 starters and entree for each of us. I loved their Bucatini - very flavorful and every bite felt like heaven. The summer melon salad was good. Tue blistered shisitos was okaish. I was surprised that they had honey in the burrata plate and it couldn’t be separated - I was looking forward to ordering it but couldn’t since I am allergic to honey! We ordered all 4 desserts and as expected the brown butter cake with cinnamon ice cream turned out to be the best. Their house made chocolates were good too. Overall it was a good experience however, my suggestion to them would be to accommodate the dietary restrictions too so that you can cater to more customers if that’s what you are looking forward to from business expansion standpoint. I recommend advance reservations!

Their focaccia bread is literally out of this world. Their white pasta is super yummy. I would not get the eggplant. The sausage was OK. The service was phenomenal! My waitress was such a cutie and she explained the menu very well with a great energy.

Eh its okay I had the fish ravioli and it tasted like deconstructed pizza. The shishitos were good but not enough for 3 people. The portions for "Sharing" are barely enough for 2 people let alone 3. The bread was good but again 4 slices for 3 people. The saving graces were the deserts, for me the winner was the peach panna cotta. The cake was cornbread like and a little dry but the cinnamon toast ice cream was overpowering but refreshing. Rosé they had tasted like dirt it was not good. The other wines were also very earthy. We got an espresso martini it comes with lavender, the espresso was burnt tasting and overwhelmed the other flavors.
