I always recommend this as a go-to brunch spot. The restaurant is beautiful and the food is delicious! The food is made me thoughtful ingredients, yet still taste incredible. I also love the smoothies and often grab one after a workout Nextdoor to Barry's. read more

Hip, slightly-upscale spot for a healthy meal. The ambiance is great and service was lovely. It very much aligns with the overall feel of the 2nd street district. Their iced americano is fantastic, and they have a great wine selection. We ordered the bread and butter, brussels sprouts, chicken tacos, and the butternut squash. Everything was delicious, but be warned that it is a bit on the pricier side for the amount of food you receive. Parking can be tough but it's worth the challenge if you're looking for a nice place downtown for a feel-good meal. read more

Walked in on a Friday afternoon for some lunch & got seated immediately. The ambiance inside is sooo beautiful, I loved it! The food was yummy, especially their steak tacos! My friend and I each got The Elixir drink and would have liked another one but our server was like no where to be found the second half of our meal. Started off strong and ended poorly. We were searching and had to flag the server down to get our check. Kind of weird because it was pretty slow ha! But def a cute spot and will try it out again! read more

With so many places to eat in Austin, I promise you won't regret choosing The Well! The decor and ambiance is very comfy and elegant. The bar and drinks are delicious. But what really stands out is the food! The menu offerings are somethings you won't find else where such as pomegranate guacamole! Everything tastes great and most importantly made with quality ingredients! You do not feel overstuffed or groggy after eating here! You can enjoy a great meal and appetizers knowing it had been created and crafted with the best ingredient! Definitely a must try! read more

Ambiance is amazing. I came here for the avocado toast and it was even better than I imagined. Great food, great drinks, and great service!

Food was excellent, service very friendly, cool ambience, however...there were some odd things about the experience. For one, the booth seats are much lower than the chairs and far from the table, so you have to lean forward and look up if you're on the booth side (I'm tall, btw). Second, silverware was placed directly on the table instead of napkins. There should always be a place for silverware that is not right on the table which could have cleaning product or germs from previous diners. Third, food runners didn't know who ordered what and that should just be part of the running job considering the price of items on the menu. Next up, the tacos were served on a small-ish plate and were pretty difficult to eat. I imagine a lot of people spill this dish and a much larger plate would fix that. Also, the dessert which the server knew was going to be shared was placed in the middle of the table with no dessert plates. Again, awkward experience and potentially very messy. And lastly, the bathrooms left much to be desired. One stall was not working at all, one was gross (that's all I'll say about that) and the stall closest to the main door had a wide gap which people could see right through. Overall, the experience was OK, but I'm still giving 4 stars bc the food was that good. We ordered the curry squash, mushroom tacos, and apple dessert. Highly recommend those items, just don't sit on a booth, ask for extra plates and napkins, and use the bathroom before you go. read more

Average spot, I had high hopes The food is mediocre for the price. Service was lacking. read more

If you're living in or just visiting Austin, you have to check out The Well! I'm vegan, and I was overly pleased to see the options they provided here. I went the first day I came into town and absolutely LOVED it so much I went again the next day. The atmosphere is beautiful and comfortable. Both the inside and outside seating are lovely. Such a great date/lounge/hang out or work spot! Now let's get to the food. I got avocado toast, the revive smoothie as a bowl and the vegan Cesar. All of which were so good I got the same exact thing the next day. The iced latte was also really good!!! The staff was so nice and accommodating and the owners were so sweet as well! I beyond highly recommend coming to The Well!!!! read more

The environment of this place is extremely inviting and warm. Everyone that works here, the managers (Dimas), the hosts, the servers (Christine and Camila) and bartenders are so friendly that it makes you want to return. The happy hour is a great deal as well as many grade "A" drinks are 1/2 off. The food is fantastic as well. Highly recommend it! read more

This is one of my favorite gluten free restaurants in Austin. The ambiance is relaxed, the decor is fun and modern (cool art and high ceilings), the service is always on point and the menu always leaves you satiated. We went to celebrate my mother's birthday. The staff took extra care and had my mother feeling like royalty. So glad we have access to this Austin gem. read more

Super yummy and fresh food. I loved going somewhere not having to ask questions about food preparation (I have celiac disease) since the whole place is gluten free. read more

I went my first time to the Well this past Sunday. I met a friend for brunch and really enjoyed the experience. The decor and environment is very nice and worth a stop just for a selfie. ;) It really was nice though. The wait staff was very kind and welcoming. I enjoyed a tequila cocktail from them and the vegan chorizo hash. The hash was delicious and filling. I would definitely come back for another brunch. read more

Amazing food and service, everything we ordered was so flavorful and delicious I would definitely come back. They make some seltzers in house which were also pretty good. I love that they don't use bad oils and all wines are organic! And that everything is high quality. 10/10 read more

This was my first order at The Well and I have to say I'm supremely disappointed. I ordered two smoked beet salads, one with chicken and the second with double chicken for my friend. We both agreed that the salads felt incomplete, and when I checked back on the menu, turned out there was no burrata or olives. Also, there was no added chicken on the second even after I confirmed it twice with the lady at the counter. More than that, it felt uncharacteristically bland and careless for Austin, especially for a $40 meal. I can't say I'll return based on today's experience. read more

Average at best restaurant in the heart of downtown. Will be surprised if this place lasts over a year without major changes. Nice atmosphere but food was lacking Pros: - nice atmosphere with good space around tables - affordable - healthy options - good service Cons: - smoothie was flavorless - broth was not great and the chicken they put in it tasted like dog food lol - bacon was very undercooked - food was just not good read more

If you are looking for a Vegan menu welcome! Lets start with the ambiance, cute and cozy... I sat outside temperature around 66° and nice.. Didn't need a heater but hubby did... We happen to arrive at happy hour (Great to know it exist) everything was half off. I've never eaten here but decided it is time to stop cooking but enjoy a day out, since we are out bike riding! oh and its my bday. Jae was our waiter and amazing love those nails, and very attentive. Cedric from France was so darn cute and would not give me the recipe that I tried to talk him out of. Ok here goes I had the Vegan Queso, with cashew ricotta, the Vegan Guacamole with organic strawberries, and jalapeños OMG (Oh my goodness) AMAZING!!! Well, surprise surprise, I was gifted with a avocado mousse well as you know most men love sweets!! He really enjoyed my bday surprise. I wanted to thank The Well for options and a beautiful atmosphere, and for sure for being accommodating. read more

Hip, New American eatery with an emphasis on healthy food options. I've walked by this downtown location countless times and often wondered what it was like inside. For whatever reason, I didn't find too many reviews of it so I sort of wrote it off even though it looked pretty interesting from the exterior. Eventually I was able to try this place out though and it turned out to be a good experience. I started with The Cure, which was a spicy, vegetal cocktail that I found to be quite refreshing. We then shared the salmon tartare, which was absolutely my favorite dish here: the blend of sweet fruit, spicy chili, and savory salmon and avocado was delicious. For my main, I got the Texas wagyu steak, which is a tri-tip cut with a beet puree, and some side greens. I thought the steak could use a bit of salt and seasoning, but aside from that, the doneness was good to my taste and the cut was exactly what I was expecting. It is worth pointing out that the service here was excellent: our server was really nice and gave great recommendations. Given the downtown location, parking can be a bit of an adventure, so keep that in mind. read more

They have healthy options but their proportions are way over prices and their customer service is very mid. The pictures they include of their products over promise what you actually receive read more

Absolutely love this place! I​'v​e come here regularly for smoothies​ and they never disappoint, but after having tried the brunch this past weekend, ​The Well has ​proved it's definitely on another level than your average "healthy food" restaurant​ - especially here in Austin where they're a dime a dozen​. We got the ​C​hilaquiles and the ​A​vocado ​T​oast with soft scrambled eggs - incredible flavor ​and mix of ingredients ​in each​, especially for the chilaquiles​. The portions were so generous and so, so filling. This place definitely proves that you don't have to sacrifice flavor and quality in order to eat healthy and feel satisfied​.​ They also have make their own craft cocktails in-house​, which are delicious, and have a cute outdoor patio with shade and dog-friendly, too!​ read more

Ambiance is great. Seating is nice. Very open space. Very clean and great friendly staff. I dont think i would return. Summer Squash Salad - refreshing, flavorful, very generous on the cashew ricotta. The sunflower seeds were a nice crunchy touch. Would not order again. Blue Matcha Latte w/ Nutmilk - Very odd flavor, watered down, not creamy, not sweet even after adding more agave. Smoked Mushroom (waitress recommended) - Very bland, toast was a tad burnt around the edges, definitely would not order again. **We had a significant amount of cashew risotto with our of Smoked Mushroom & squash salad order so i wished we would have chosen different dishes. Seared Seabass - Very bland. Nothing special about this dish. I was quite a bit disappointed on the wait for this dish only to find it very small and lacking everything. Fish was very flakey at least and melted in my mouth but i just wish it had flavor. I didnt get the WOW factor with anything I ordered so I dont plan to return. I dont drink so i did not try any cocktails. Im curious about the Mushroom Risotto because i love both but i dont plan to be disappointed again with lack of flavor. read more

Thought this new restaurant is fantastic for conscious healthy eaters all around! The pride themselves on health and sustainability and you can taste that through their menu options. I tried all of their happy hour menu options and they even have a great selection for non alcoholic beverages which is trending right now! Places like this tend to get a bad wrap because it's "heathy" foods but their offerings were not lacking in flavor whatsoever. read more

One of the best restaurants in Austin hands down! The best part is their staff - a special shoutout to Natasha (their director of events), Emily & Chelsea. I had my wedding cocktail hour welcome here, and had the pleasure of working closely with their team. Natasha was so helpful in creating an absolutely beautiful event within my budget and on my timeline. My guests and I were treated to excellent service the entire evening, and everyone was raving about the menu Natasha helped me to design. The food is so fresh and incredibly tasty, as well as the drinks. The atmosphere is chic but comfortable, as well as kid friendly. Whether you're looking for a nice place to eat or are wanting to host an event, I would recommend The Well in a heartbeat. I would recommend the guacamole, the falafel, the lentils and ceviche, but you can't go wrong with one thing on the menu. As a nutritionist, i'm so happy to have found The Well and had them be a part of our wedding weekend! read more

Went here for my anniversary dinner and everything was amazing. We were hesitant at first since the previous reviews mainly were brunch focused. But clearly they have figured out how to serve a killer dinner. Snapper Crudo - one of the highlights of the night. My boyfriend hates anything slightly fishy but he was amazed by this dish. The flavors were perfect together and the fish was fresh Smoked Mushroom Conserva - We definitely expected more of a mushroom focused dish and were shocked that the texture eas more hummus-like. Once we tasted it though our expectations didn't even matter. It was unbelievable. The bread was also a perfect pairing. Service: Autumn was so attentive and kind. Hope to get her as our server again when we return next week when we bring our parents ! read more

Amazing food. We came here after a rough hangover and it saved us. Prices were incredibly fair and staff was incredibly nice. I called day of and they were about to squeeze us in. We tried the wellness shots which where great, juices, smoothies and lattes -all amazing. The food was also tasty, huge portions and fresh. We were only in austin for a short trip but would love to go again one day. read more

This place was fantastic! All of the food so fresh and healthy. We got a cold pressed juice, golden nut milk latte, the kale salad, vegan mushroom tacos, and the fish n chips. My fiancé also had two of their spritzers which they make and can in house, they were delicious! Refreshing and no sugar added. You order on a kiosk and then find a seat out on their super charming patio. They will bring your items out to you and if you want to order further items you order off your phone at the table. We will definitely be back! I loved the food and all the plant based options. Good spot for vegans and vegetarians. read more

Wow. I don't usually leave reviews for places, but I had to for this one. The Well is such a gem! I got the chilaquiles, blue iced matcha latte, ginger chicken broth, and replenish juice (spinach, cucumber, lemon). I was a bit skeptical of the chilaquiles before ordering -- cauliflower and carrots? Cassava chips? But OH MY GOD, I was blown away. It was 10 layers of amazing. The flavors were so good, and I appreciated that I was getting some veggies in for the day (they're roasted and taste great in the mole sauce). I felt healthy but also like I had experienced an explosion of flavors. The cassava chips are on the thicker side and hold their own so they don't get soggy in the sauce, also amazing. The Well knows how to make a great dish, that's for sure. The blue iced matcha latte was also perfect. Some places don't whisk the matcha correctly, leaving you with big floating lumps of matcha in the latte, but this was perfectly dispersed and smooth. The ginger turmeric chicken broth was the best broth I've had thus far -- I usually order Brodo Broth from NYC and add my own ginger and fresh turmeric, but this was even better than the Brodo version. Can't wait to try the other flavors! Replenish juice was refreshing and exactly what I needed. It comes in a glass bottle, which is nice to have and re-use. It's also a good size. In conclusion, the Well is well worth a visit. Some of the items may seem pricy, but you'll have experienced amazing flavors/ingredients AND feel great after. Can't wait to try everything else on the menu! read more

Absolutely loved all of our food! It was so nice to find a place that is gluten free and does not use seed oils. Service was also great. We'll be back again soon! read more
