The wine list is great, but a little pricey. They do half-off pizza deals on Wednesday.
Good and unique food - very casual. The food is really good and unique and a place to go if you like very casual dining. But this is not the place for a romantic date. The tables are crowded together.
DON'T GO!.
Italy is known for his familial atmosphere, like Olive Garden commercials (though that's not real Italy, but you get the idea).
However, this little bistro would prefer that you not stop by. They don't leave the kitchen area except to bring you your food, and they still expect a tip. You have to get up to get your own tea, but if they give you more ice, you have to pay for another drink.
Oh, and do not bring a group of friends and your laptop. The free wifi is more for superficial looks than for actual use. The general manager made several comments, staff agreeing, because we lingered there to work, though we had ordered drinks, several appetizers BEFORE they were half-price, and a meal.
It was disappointing to say the least. They want your money, but they don't want you.…
Awesome Austin Bistro. i love this place. My friend recomended it and I can't wait to go back. The food is amazing and gourmet - but not expensive. The Tuna sandwich made me fall in love with Olives. Normally I hate olives. The pizza is also very good - nice crunchy crust. The fried cauliflower is what shocked me - I had never had it but my mom raves about it from her childhood. She said this was just like the kind she used to get as a kid - only better! Could use better sodas/drinks but I didn't try the wine. A good lunch place or late afternoon snack. The homemade ketchup is amazing.…
Fantastic Italian food and a great atmosphere. Great find!. Went to Cipollina's for the first time a week ago. It was recommended by a friend as a great Italian place with good food, good prices and a nice atmosphere. Done, done and DONE! The food was fantastic. Not your typical Italian, which isn't a bad thing. I had a pizza and devoured it. So good. It took a little while for the food to come, but it was worth it. Plus it gave us time to talk with our friends. All fresh ingredients and nice and hot. The inside is nice and dark & moody. It was still light out when we were there, but I can imagine it could be romantic at night. The prices were very reasonable too. You would think it would've been more expensive for as nice as it was in there. I will definitely be back!…
