    pot daddy drinks
    Vian N.

    we came here after a pottery class at Pot Daddy, and they offer a complimentary drink (alch/mocktail) if you bring the piece you made at Pot Daddy!! the drinks tasted like a sweet orange juice, delicious their garlic bread is heavenly, slightly crispy and coated in oil, parmesan, and garlic!! insanely airy 10/10 love the carbonara was also very good, thick, and cheesy. the salty pancetta added good salty flavor to the dish would come back

    I've only been to the food truck location in East Austin once a long time ago, but boy it was so delicious this time I totally forgot how good it was! We ordered 2 small pastas and a salad and everything was so flavorful, fresh, and amazing. Highly recommend!!

    Such a gem of an Italian spot! The downtown location is my favorite, but the newer Westlake location is great if you want to sit indoors with AC instead of outside. The bruschetta and all of their pastas are a must-try. I honestly love every pasta I've had here, but I always end up leaning toward the carbonara and I always add an egg! The service is also super quick and efficient; they make sure to answer any questions while you're in the front of the line to keep it moving fast. Definitely a favorite!

    I'm actually not sure if Patrizi's got better since I visited years ago from my college days, but I remember always not loving Patrizi's despite how much of a cult favorite and Austin classic they are. I also LOVE Italian food, so it made me sad that I didn't crave Patrizi's as often as I should've. However, my friend who's never visited Texas came to visit recently and of course, I had to show him Patrizi's. We went to their further location where they offer pizza, and we got two pastas and one pizza and everything was so delicious. I actually could see myself ordering from here for takeout orders, and I wish they were closer because you can never go wrong with handmade pasta noodles. I do think the pesto pasta is underwhelming for my personal taste, but I loved their classic tomato with sausage pizza.

    Yum! One of my favorite restaurants in Austin. I always get half pastas when I'm here and I also tried Veggie Sott'olio. I wished this dish was warm and not as oily. I think it would be great if they added some Parmesan cheese too.

    Tiramisu

    I had heard so many great things about patrizi's from the atx locals and it's safe to say, I was definitely not disappointed! When we entered, we were welcomed by the inviting staff and walked us through their ordering process and menu. This surely made the process feel less intimidating and I really enjoy that they do a lot for to ensure customer satisfaction. My friend and I had ordered the garlic bread and pesto pasta as well as a PotDaddy Punch (received a complimentary coupon at pot daddy's right before!). This was definitely one of those meals that tastes as good as if looks. The leopald (basil & arugula pesto pasta) was delicious and the flavors between the spice and zest were worth noting. The garlic bread served shortly after and I really loved the flavors, all that was missing for me was some melted mozzarella on it. After devouring that delicious meal, we decided that no Italian meal is complete without tiramisu. The cake was extremely moist and airy which I really enjoyed. It also tasted very rich and espresso-y! The inside was decorated very nicely and they even had a window that you could see the fresh pasta made in house! Super cool dining experience! Already thinking about my next time coming back!

    Chicken Parmesan sandwich

    Patrizi's off Cuernavaca is hands down one of the best Italian restaurants in Austin. Tucked away in the gorgeous Westlake area, this place delivers serious Italian comfort food vibes with the kind of fresh-made pasta that completely ruins you for anything out of a box. We went early on a Sunday with a group--no wait, which felt like winning the lottery because every single thing we ordered was incredible. The cacio e pepe was rich and peppery perfection, the chicken parm and meatball sandwiches were cheesy, saucy masterpieces, the lemon thyme pasta was bright and unforgettable, the rainbow salad was crisp and fresh, the garlic bread and bruschetta were total carb heaven, and the tiramisu... honestly, it's so delicious. Between the food, the chill atmosphere, and the beautiful location, this is the kind of spot that makes you want to come back again and again. If you love Italian food, go to Patrizi's.

    Do you see a fork in here, no? Cause there ain't one.
    Rebecca N.

    I ordered to go here so my daughter could eat something before her nap. Guess what they didn't have for pasta?? A plastic freaking fork. So I asked for a metal one because I ordered to go and needed something to feed her with??? Like a spoon and knife ain't gonna cut it for pasta??? And they wouldn't give it to me. Asked for a manager or owner and none to be found. Only giving one extra star because they did offer us coupons to come back, but girly why would I want to come back.

    Love Thy Neighbor: Patrizi's absolutely embodies that. After finding out that a dear friend's son, who had recently extinguished all efforts in battling a terminal diagnosis of high grade glioma, only food request was Patrizi's own butter noodles we knew we had to reach out asap. Lyn and the whole team not only came through but they came through BIG. The extra time, the extra servings, were just everything during such a dark time. So just wanted to return the love and say thank you again. Gestures like this give us all hope. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    Caprese Sandwich
    Trinh T.

    Patrizi's is one of those rare places that feels like a secret you want to share--but also want to keep all to yourself. What began as an food truck now has a second location with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for bigger parties. This review is for the new location. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - The Cuernavaca location is a beautiful evolution of the Patrizi's experience. Unlike the original food truck setup, this spot offers both indoor and outdoor seating, making it ideal for everything from casual lunches to cozy date nights. Inside, the space is warm and inviting, with rustic wood accents, soft lighting, and a relaxed, modern Italian vibe. Outside, the patio is lush and shaded--perfect for sipping wine and enjoying a long meal under the Texas sky. 1 Star. Service - This location operates as a fast-casual restaurant, and the setup works beautifully. You order at the counter, receive a number, and your food is brought to your table. The staff are friendly, efficient, and happy to answer questions or offer recommendations. 1 Star. Food - Let's talk about the stars of the show. Caprizi Sandwich - Think of it as a Caprese salad turned up to eleven: thick slices of fresh mozzarella, juicy tomatoes, fragrant basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze, all nestled between perfectly toasted bread. The bread has just the right crunch on the outside and softness inside, soaking up all the flavors without falling apart. It's fresh, rich, and deeply satisfying. Beet Salad - A beautiful contrast to the sandwich, the beet salad is earthy, sweet, and vibrant. The beets are roasted to perfection, paired with creamy goat cheese, arugula, and a light vinaigrette that ties everything together. It's refreshing and balanced--a great way to start or complement your meal. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. Patrizi's offers some of the best Italian food in the most casual and unpretentious setting. Its laid back heel is pretty amazing considering you're getting high quality Italian fare. 1 Star.

    bruschetta and tomato salad
    Lola M.

    I went to Patrizi's last night, a hidden gem with pasta, salads, amazing starters, and all with some live music. We started out with the bruschetta. Every single bite was bursting with flavor, and the crunchy yet soft bread was the perfect pairing. We got two salads: one with tomatoes, arugula, and farm cheese; the other with mixed greens and garlic confit. The two pastas we ordered were incredible. One was a mix of two pestos (one with lemon and the other with dry roasted tomato), and the other was entirely roasted tomato. We also got a meatball that was incredibly juicy and well-seasoned, covered in red sauce. When you arrive at Patrizi's, you get in line at the pasta bar, where after ordering, you receive a number to put on your table. We got lucky and had a couple of musicians setting up right when we arrived, so we enjoyed live music throughout dinner. There is a little theater inside where you can buy drinks such as wine, beer, or soda. Overall, it was an amazing experience. There is parking outside, but if it's full, it's possible to find street parking as well.

    Oh my goodness. I'm still dreaming about their garlic bread. If you are looking for incredible and reasonably priced Italian, this is the place. Everything is made in house. From the bread, to the pasta, to the cheese and when I say it's incredible, I truly mean it. We ordered a few different appetizers to share and different pastas and every single thing was so good. The serving sizes are very generous and we had leftovers and it tasted just as good the following day. The servers were knowledgeable and answered our questions and were so excited to welcome us to their restaurant as first timers. We ate outside on their back patio and it had lots of shade and different areas for seating. They had a dj there who was playing vinyl records and the vibes were so nice. It was like swing mixed with different vintage styles and we loved it. I missed their name, but they were even dressed like a vintage sailor and it was iconic. Can't wait to go back again!!

    So glad they serve pasta all day now! Came on a Sunday evening (yes they're open Sundays) , order at counter, grab a cocktail in the bar and grab a seat in or outside on their patio. Pasta is all in house made fettuccine with various sauces. All great portions and flavorful! The Leopold and Pomodoro were amazing! The porch sipper was a very cucumbery refreshing cocktail.

The sandwiches came with Garlic Fries. The Fries were delicious but unfortunately mine were lukewarm. I certainly could have asked for a fresh portion, but was hungry enough not to bother. That's the reason my rating wasn't 5 Star. Because the restaurant was pretty empty on this Saturday afternoon, I feel the Chef shouldn't have sent out fries that weren't piping hot. The Meatball Sandwich however was marvelous. Freshly made, tasty meatballs with sauce and cheese on their focaccia bread was a real treat. I took half home and ate the rest for dinner.
