    Protein Pancakes and Chicken Caesar Wrap
    Sage O.

    I wanted to love this place so bad. The vibes on the patio are amazing and service was fine. However the food and portions for what you're paying I would much rather go to local foods, true food, or flower child to get the same quality of ingredients and "healthy" going out vibe, since those actually taste good. The protein pancakes were very disappointing and my friend even says she can make better ones at home. They just tasted like they came from a kodiak pancake mix, nothing special. The chicken caesar wrap was very small, there was hardly any chicken and the croutons were not crunchy, they were just dense and not enjoyable to eat. The spritz was very refreshing and enjoyable. I might be back to try their steak and eggs because I heard that's good.

    Went here for a Saturday lunch without a reservation and it was busy. We were able to sit at the bar easily and got great service. The place has a very cool esthetic. The food was amazing. I wish I could have ordered more. Lots of things I want to try in the menu but the steak and eggs were cooked perfectly. It is exactly what you need for a mid day post workout protein meal. I will definitely suggest this place.

    Salted Date Macchiato
    Evalani C.

    Was so grateful and excited there was a seed oil free and gluten and dairy free restaurant in the area!! That is rare. So I had to try! Met up with friends who hadn't seen in a few months. Made reservations a week or two ahead and there were plenty of times to choose from. We sat outside as it was a decent day to do that. They do have heat lamps if need be but we didn't need those. Even though it was outside it still felt private. I ordered the salted caramel macchiato and the chicken pecan salad sandwich which came with an arugula salad. The coffee was ok. I was hoping to like the flavor more. But that could just be me as I don't drink coffee and when I do it's usually sugary coffee. This one is obviously healthy so that could be it. Still, I expected more. But the sandwich and salad made up for it!! I read mixed reviews about the sandwich and was hesitant to order. But I would get it again it was soooo good!! Filling, not heavy yet didn't feel hungry after. The salad was surprisingly amazing. It had a vinaigrette that was very delicious. I went on a Saturday during brunch. Was hoping to be able to order regular tacos but they only offered breakfast tacos. So would love to come back when it isn't brunch. The interior was beautiful as I had to walk inside to use the restroom. The restroom was tiny though. We were piled in there waiting for 3 stalls to become open. Could use a bigger bathroom for an establishment that busy. But the interior decor was absolutely breathtaking! Such a vibe! Will definitely be back. Can't wait to take my hubby and my sister who loves eating healthy as well. Ps. Would really love to see nutrition facts on the menu. Knowing the macros seems to be pretty commonplace with people now days. And probably more so with people who choose to dine at The Well. Please put those on the menu!! :)

    Acocado Avocado Mousse
    Chrissy N.

    Always love picking up my lunch here. Staff is nice and good is fresh. Decided to try their avocado mousse and the ingredients look great but it wasn't my favorite when it comes to taste. The chicken grain bowl however was amazing in every way. The flavor, the freshness, the texture and the dressing. I can eat this everyday. They also offer cold pressed juice, shots and made to order smoothy but I didn't try it this time.

    Squash curry
    Rachel T.

    I can't believe I haven't been here sooner!! The Well has been on my radar, but when I was attending a show at ACL Live during SXSW, this was the perfect opportunity. I was with a friend that is vegan and I suggested here for dinner. We looked at the menu and agreed to try it! We shared the Thai Lettuce Wraps V $15: local mushroom, organic, mint, organic wild grain trio, ginger, fresno and organic jalapeno, local gem lettuce, cashew. They were SO flavorful and delicious, however 4 small lettuce leaves were not enough. We asked for more and got 4 more small leaves, which they charged us $2 for. I do think that's a bit crazy. I would order this app again though! We each tried the Coconut Curry Squash for dinner- V $22 - local seasonal squash medley, seasonal bell pepper, heirloom cherry tomato, pepitas, sesame seeds, organic heirloom grain trio. I didn't know the grains would be so similar to the lettuce wraps, so next time I would get one or the other. I loved this curry though - WOW. It tasted like fall. So fresh and delicious. Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable. I had a glass of garnacha and my friend had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. My glass was $15 on the menu but I was charged $17 on my bill. Prices are super high for the portion size, but the food was so delicious I will definitely go back. Beautiful restaurant conveniently located right downtown on 2nd st.

    Beet-cured Salmon Sashimi
    Christina H.

    For those who are health-conscious, The Well is definitely one to add to your list. Created by the culinary director behind Devil May Care and TenTen (Jon Oh) and a nutritional consultant (Liv Langdon), the menu is entirely non-GMO, soy-free, refined-sugar-free, and easily modifiable. I wouldn't say the food was bad, but the flavors were a bit one dimensional and missed marks due to the emphasis on clean ingredients. The menu is on the smaller side, so we stuck with light bites and drinks. We ordered the Market Fish Ceviche, the Texas Wagyu Beef Tartare, and the Beet-Cured Salmon Sashimi. The ceviche felt too diluted and lacked the creaminess I was expecting. The tartare had good flavor but tasted a bit like a salty burger, which made it oddly addictive. The Salmon Sashimi was a bit more familiar in flavor, as it reminded me of a Salmon lox on a crostini. Since I was on a health kick for the night, it only felt right to end with a wellness shot-- a wellness shot that is-- and ordered the High 5 (carrot, pineapple, ginger, turmeric, and lemon) which was perfect--spicy (ginger), yet refreshing.

    The ambiance is moody and the decor is modern and chic. The Well boasts hand painted artwork on its walls and a comfortable space to enjoy a meal. I had the Blues on the Green cocktail. The blue corn salt went perfectly with the drink. It was refreshing. We started with the aguachile. It was fresh, the citrus paired well with a kick of peppers. I had the pasta bolognese for my entree. The pasta was a bit hard but the bolognese was savory and seasoned perfectly. It was a hearty meal. The portion was large. The service was a bit slow but I would definitely return to The Well to try other menu options.

    Sustainably-Sourced Salmon
    Mira D.

    Went to The Well for dinner with friends and it was such a wonderful experience. I ordered the sustainably sourced salmon, which was served on a bed of organic spinach and kale, and it was absolutely delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly. It was tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. What I really love about The Well is the thoughtful menu. Everything is gluten- and dairy-free, and there are so many vegan options, which makes it a great place for groups with different dietary needs. It's not easy to find a spot that feels both health-conscious and indulgent at the same time, but this place nails it. The ambiance is also beautiful. It's warm, modern, and inviting. It's the kind of place that works equally well for a casual dinner with friends or a slightly more special night out. I'll definitely be going back and can't wait to try more of the menu.

    Texas Wagyu Steak & Eggs
    Erica D.

    This place does healthier whole foods so well! Everytime I've come I've enjoyed my meal so finally decided to write a review after coming here for brunch - we hadn't made a reservation but thought we'd just walk in even though it was a Sunday and altho we got quoted 45 mins I'm glad we sat and waited because we were seated within about 5-6 mins! We both ordered their wellness juices - I loved the high 5! For food we got the potato & "chorizo" (vegan) hash (added an egg) which was delicious flavor wise but deducted a star for not being served hot or even warm. We also got the steak & eggs which was delicious and a huge portion which makes the price worth it. Don't hesitate to come here - great flavors and love the ambiance.

    Coconut Curry Squash
    Nida A.

    I absolutely love this meal. The service was perfect. The drinks were extremely healthy. They don't use any seed oils, gluten or dairy in any of their meals. A perfect, delicious health heaven.

    Sustainably-sourced Seared Salmon 6oz
    Ciara W.

    The Well is super aesthetic and really pretty inside -- definitely one of those Instagram-worthy spots. It says casual, but I felt a little underdressed showing up in leggings and a jacket. The service was great though, no complaints there. The menu is all about being healthy -- dairy-, gluten-, and soy-free -- which I think is awesome in theory, but the food itself just didn't blow me away. It was good, but honestly felt like something I could make at home. For the prices, I was hoping for a little more flavor and excitement. I like bold, rich flavors, and this spot felt a bit too mild for me. I get why it's popular -- it's super pretty and has a good vibe for groups after work or weekend brunch -- but it's just not really my vibe.

    Grass-fed Texas Wagyu Sirloin Steak 6oz
    Krystyna L.

    A great spot when you want to be both health conscious and out and about! The food is all very tasty and you never leave feeling uncomfortable. We went for a coconut squash curry which I thought was going to be more curry like but instead it was quinoa based with a sauced poured over the veggies, was delish anyway. I opted for the side of 6 oz sirloin steak so I could select my own veggies and went with brussels and a cauliflower kale. I ordered medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. Service was excellent, both fast and friendly. We sat outside, warmed by heat lamps and under the string lights. There is parking validated at a garage nearby @ 157 Guad.

    Dominique E.

    Really enjoyed my dinner here at the well. Known for their clean food, I was excited to try a hearty dish, especially since it was freezing outside. I order the curry with quinoa and vegetables. It was delicious! I wish I had more curry but this dish was filling. I also order the beet mocktail. It was tart, sweet, the perfect addition to my meal. Really appreciated my questions being answered by our server about specific dishes and recommendations.

All in all, we will definitely be back to try new items!

With a point system to accrue benefits over time, and at each visit, and impressive happy hour specials for both food and drinks, it's hard not to visit more than once. Every member of service either greeted us, or supported our needs with a smile. Calvin, especially, made sure every step of our experience from walking in through ordering was special. While we didn't indulge in the beverages, we enjoyed the $10 burger special which also came with fries! We paired this with a side of a $6 Caesar Salad (really tasty and thrown together with thinly sliced cabbage, roasted chickpeas, and popcorn chicken). Next time, I'd really love to try the truffle mac and cheese (which was also on HH). We weren't aware of the upcharge for swapping out the slice of American for Cheddar (+$1.50), which would've been nice to know ahead of time, since we both got burgers and wondered about the swap...but lesson learned. Also, BIG lesson learned...the parking validation is for only two hours! We were having such a lovely time at Dish Society, but exceeded the 2 hrs (by an extra hour) and got charged a significant amount for parking. Next time, we will certainly park on the street. We tried reasoning with the parking attendant and they wanted no business in understanding we were patrons of the restaurant. It was certainly an unexpected shock, and didn't leave the best final touch of our evening (specifically in that parking garage). It's unfortunate that we got penalized for enjoying our time at dinner.

    Great menu and food, cozy venue (with indoor and patio seating), efficient server with experience,…read moreand reasonable prices for Austin. Had not been to this restaurant in a good while, and was a last minute decision. Good choice. The whipped feta is always a treat -- light and creamy with a solid feta taste, but not overpowering, served with a few orange slices and thinly sliced almonds, and pita. Special dish! Beet salad excellent, but the Fresno peppers had way too much heat, so pushed them to side. My wife had the Moroccan curry, which had a very spot on Moroccan flavor (been there 3x), and was a large, filling portion so brought home leftovers. I had the grilled pork chop which was large, perfectly grill with a tasty bourbon-based glaze, served with a large roasted garlic clove. Wonderful dish. My wife had a white wine that she enjoyed and my martini, slightly dirty with olives (to start) was a large pour and very smooth. Enjoyable meal in a nice setting once again ...

    My brother was visiting from San Antonio, TX. We were tooling around Austin playing tourist and…read morethen landed at District Kitchen for lunch. This place is so intoxicating from the aqua blue color palate and funky green art work to the alluring lighting and huge metal plate (looks like something from a ship...also their logo). My brother said the green artwork looked like broccoli. My brother ordered the Idaho trout with coconut rice and Brussel sprouts. I sampled his food and it was all good. The standout was the Brussel sprouts...crispy with this absolutely delicious drizzle. I ordered the Mezze plate with a flavor explosion and many desirable texture. It had lamb kabobs, fresh salad (emphasis on fresh) with thinly sliced cucumbers, finely sliced onions and creamy feta (never had creamy feta), red round sweet peppers, hummus with the most delightful pesto like sauce, and olives. Oh my...what a delicious lunch! Morgan, our server, was attentive and accomodating. She moved us to another table when we notice our table was rocking a little. Great catching up with my brother and excellent meal!
