"Apis cares about its food (so much so, it strives to become Austin’s Blue Hill Stone Barns, with a fully vertical farm), and it shows with its fare. Indulge and linger over the prix fixe or casual bar menu, showcasing the best of what Apis can do, from house-aged and cured meats, fresh scallops, to honey combs (though entry is a bit confusing). While you’re out there, it’s worth checking out its casual counterpart, Pizzeria Sorellina, right next door.Distance from Austin: approximately 40 minutes" - Nadia Chaudhury
