APT 115

"Apt 115 feels like you’ve stumbled into someone’s home. It's located at the bottom of an apartment complex, in a cozy, remodeled studio—fitting given their focus on small producers and low-intervention wines. You could just as easily arrive dressed up for a nice date night, or pop in for a quick drink after work to enjoy something from their rotating selection of 10 wines by the glass or a list that spans over 400 bottles from across six continents. There's also a food menu with small plates and a five-course tasting menu that changes every few months." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion

"Le Cowboy is currently undergoing a pop-up residency at East Austin wine bar Apt 115. This residency, originally set to end in 2024, has been extended through January 2025. There are a la carte and $75 prix fixe menus, previewing dishes from the Le Cowboy restaurant, including items like squid ink tagliolini, ragu alla bolognese with garganelli, and chicken parms with fettuccine alfredo. Meals are complemented by wine pairings chosen by Apt owner Joe Pannenbacker. Since the pop-up started in late October, the wine bar was named a Michelin-recommended restaurant in November." - Nadia Chaudhury

"Apt 115 has transitioned back to its original concept as a wine bar and retail bottle shop, discontinuing its a la carte and prix fixe food menus. The bar will still offer small bites like oysters, cheese and character boards, and bread." - Nadia Chaudhury
