The 12 Best Fancy Restaurants In Austin For A Special Occasion Dinner

"Olamaie looks like it was plucked off the cover of Southern Living magazine. The renovated 1930s bungalow is complete with well-manicured hedges, white wood paneling, and a cute patio where you can sip on sweet tea from a mason jar while chatting about the weather. It’s just a few blocks from the UT Campus, but you wouldn’t know it from looking around the cozy dining room. This is a place that feels like it takes the key tenets of southern hospitality—politeness, home cooking, and charm, to name a few—and applies it to fine dining. As a result, it feels warm and inviting, and you’ll somehow always leave with a small box of leftovers that’s just as good the next day.  " - nicolai mccrary
