Patrizi’s Cuernavaca - Review - West Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"The people behind the much loved Eastside pasta trailer Patrizi’s opened a brick and mortar location in the Cuernavaca neighborhood in West Austin. The counter service restaurant serves breakfast (with panzerotti), lunch (with salads and sandwiches on house-made focaccia), and dinner, with no waiting in epic lines hopefully" - Raphael Brion

Patrizi’s has long been a beloved spot in Austin, and the West Lake location carries on that tradition beautifully. While it offers the same handmade pasta and rich flavors as the original East Austin food trailer, this location provides a more spacious and comfortable dining experience without losing the charm that made Patrizi’s special in the first place. Every dish we tried was outstanding, and the drinks were just as impressive. The atmosphere was lively, and we happened to visit on a trivia night, which added to the fun. While it’s a bit of a drive, the quality of the food, the welcoming ambiance, and the overall experience make it well worth the trip. Highly recommended!

Loved Patrizi’s pizza. Would love to go there again to experience some more pizzas, bruschettas and garlic breads. The entire menu is made fresh. They grow their own ingredients including the greens.

We stopped here for lunch as it was a recommendation from Pot Daddy. So glad we did! Staff was super Fri and accommodating. Food was fresh and amazing. And outdoor seating was perfect!! A must try!!

Initially introduced by a coworker - the location I believe - was in a caravan near a theatre. This is a sister branch a little away from the city but the food again is just incredible. They do have additional risotto and Roman style pizzas along with a bar here. The classic pastas are again just spectacular and pizza was nothing short of amazing ! The drinks were awesome too ! I would come back here again when in Austin.

Food and service kicks ass! The staff were very helpful and attentive. We especially love the mocktails that they make in house

We stumbled upon this magical spot completely by chance. We just needed to kill 30 minutes, but ended up staying for two hours. The cocktails were absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere—both inside and out—was amazing. The courtyard is super cozy, the people are great, and the quirky jar-glasses just added to the charm. A must-visit!

Such and amazing place and though it's secluded it's cozy. Outdoor sitting with live music is neat and pasta and garlic bread and bruschetta are AMAZING. Will post pictures soon.

The great, classic Patrizi’s experience but at a brick and mortar spot. Excellent service and amazing food. Our particular favorites are the carbonara, the pomodoro, and the garlic bread. The carbonara is accompanied by a generous helping of guanciale/pancetta which lends the perfect bite with tender fettuccini, a rich egg yolk and fresh, crisp scallions. While this location is likely out of the way for most, I believe it is well worth the trip especially considering you can get focaccia pizza and crispy risotto which are not offered at the vortex location.

I was so disappointed when this location didn't become a Mexican food restaurant. Then I found out it was going to be Italian, which is very low on my list of likes. Patrizi's has made me love their food. It's so ridiculously good. The house made pasta is off the chart. I've had plenty of pasta and surely some of it had to be house made. None of it was even close to how good Patrizi's pasta is. You know what's as good as the pasta? Their focaccia. You need a quiet secret place to eat it mercilessly without others judging you. It demands no less. But wait - there's more - they pretty much use the focaccia to make their pizza. Holy smokes. There are a few salad choices and somehow they make those sparkle too. The house made giardiniera is delicious. While the meatball is what everyone raves about (it's worth it), we like the chicken arrosto. Add that to any pasta order and it perfects it. The location is a little challenging to park at. It's extremely popular so parking gets full most evenings. The building and grounds are pleasant and there's a lot of room indoors and out. Live music and trivia on designated nights. The bar is well stocked and I love their negroni. Take out has been easy especially now that the online portal is running. The only thing that could make this place better is if they applied themselves to some enchiladas. Meantime, what they do is spectacular. Take my money and feed me focaccia!

I've been hearing a lot of good things about Patrizi's and when they opened their second location, I had to see what the hype was about. I ordered a few different dishes, however the overall experience did fall flat for me. The carbonara was underwhelming. The bacon bits weren't crispy, but they were plentiful. The egg yolk added that signature creaminess, but outside of the saltiness of the bacon, there wasn't much flavor. The leopold lacked depth of flavor and texture. It felt very one-sided and could've used some toasted pine nuts for a crunch in my opinion. The pasta was almost cooked al dente, but still had some tough, uncooked spots where it could've used a few more minutes of boiling. The lemon thyme immediately punches you in the face with a strong tart flavor that then mellows out with the parmesan. Arguably the best out of the 3 pastas, but also had the most, albeit strong, flavor. The bruschetta was a good bite. The dish came with 2 generous pieces of crispy bread and the tomato and arugula topping added a beautiful freshness. We came on a pretty busy Friday night, but the food came out quickly. You order from the counter and they deliver the food to your table. There's plenty of seating and a separate bar you can order drinks from. I got the espresso martini for about $10 and it was refreshing. Service was attentive as they checked on us multiple times. Bonus points for having tons of parking.

Everything we ordered here was absolutely delicious, and we didn't even try the pasta they're known for! The menu has changed since my last visit--they no longer offer the focaccias. We had the margherita pizza, which was packed with flavor, and couldn't resist trying the Marfa tomatoes, which were also fantastic. I would suggest ordering a different pizza flavor if you get the Marfa tomatoes since both dishes have similar ingredients, but either way, it's all still delicious. The mocktails are incredible--so fresh, clean, and not processed at all. Honestly, I'd come back just for those! But let's be real--I'd come back for the food and dessert too. We had the carrot cake and the pepita soft serve for dessert, and both tasted so fresh. The olive oil and pepita in the soft serve were indescribable and a MUST! The service was exceptional. We ended up chatting with almost every staff member, and the whole experience reminded me of the small-town charm Austin had over a decade ago. I will definitely be back! This place is a hidden gem!

My cousin loves off Cuerny and we often stop in for a bite and drink and every time it's delish! Parking is plentiful and some of our faves are the fresh and crispy rainbow salad, cacio e Pepe, carbonara, garlic bread, roasted beets and craft cocktails. Super friendly counter service and lots of seating to settle in and catch up over some decadent carbs.

Been wanting to come here for a while and today was the day! Great ambiance, service was friendly, food was on point. I LOVE Italian food and appreciated their twist on classic dishes such as Cacio E Pepe and Carbonara. We also ordered the garlic bread and it was so fresh with ample amount of freshly grated cheese. We each ordered a half version of our pasta dishes, and it was more than enough. We had plenty to take home!

Our first time at Patrizzis, and we will definitely return. Let's start with the main show, the pasta! Cooked perfectly al dente. This place uses few ingredients in their dishes and they are high quality, proving you don't need truffle oil, a pound of cheese, or heavy cream to make a dish spectacularly tasty. We ordered diavolo (it's legit insanely spicey), carbonara, and a pasta with red sauce. All very, very good. Aside from the spiciness, the diavolo has a lemony flavor that is so good and would likely pair well with chicken. The red sauce was very good, and the carbonara was not suffering for pork. We also had their side salad and it was terrific. Lots of variety in the mix that was flavorful. The ambience is casual, and thank God for that because we just came from spending two hours in the lake! ;) It's not inexpensive. Our three dishes and the salads were $77. That was pre-tip and drinks. Overall, we'd still return despite the prices. After all, this is lake country, so it's going to be bougie. My husband insists I add this is not a brotalian pasta joint. If that is humorous to you, you're welcome.

I've heard so much high praise about Patrizis and I couldn't wait to try it. And I'm glad to say it lived up to the hype! The pasta is deliciously al dente and the perfect texture. And the sauces and toppings all feel pretty fresh. As for the flavors, I definitely had some favorites. I think the pomodoro is my personal favorite, and that's coming from someone who usually leans away from ordering red sauce. The carbonara is decent, but nothing too unique flavorwise. However, their carbonara has huge chunks of meat which I'm never gonna complain about. The lemon thyme was really good but sooo lemony. I was a fan but it was a bit too much for my friend so beware before you order. The Leopold was just alright for me. I had expected a creamier sauce and it was a little too peppery for me. But still good, I finished it all! And I really love that you can order by half sizes and the prices are still consistent, that way you can try two flavors for actually the price of one instead of the prices being jacked so that it's not worth it.

Such yummy Italian food! I got the Lemon Thyme and it was delicious! Exactly what I expected. They use the same pasta for all the dishes so you don't have to factor in different pasta shapes. I could tell that the pasta was homemade. The garlic bread was incredible. I have no idea what the secret is but the flavor was so rich. It comes with 2 large pieces so great for sharing. There's a separate bar in the restaurant with a whole separate drink menu, so if you order food first they will start a tab for you. Another cool thing is that you can order a half portion of the pasta instead of the full, if you're not too hungry. For a normal portion, go with the full. I enjoyed the vibe inside - it matched well with the food. There are a good amount of indoor tables, including half booths, and outdoor ones. There only seemed to be a few spots for parking in the front of the restaurant but I may have missed seeing the rest of the parking - I would think there has to be a lot more parking considering the amount of tables inside.

The brick-and-mortar emporium for Austin's heritage Italian cuisine is absolutely worth the drive, and an extra work-out. I've been grazing around town (and The Vortex is a scene worth enjoying, local bands galore, proper people-watching), but out here in the Hills is where it's at - a little Texas sprawl, a lot of Italian goodness. Someone is always at the door, welcoming like family, happy to help guide choices on their varied but straightforward menu. After a few visits, I can confidently say their Cacio e Pepe is my favorite. Freshly handmade fettuccine pasta with in an elegant balance of grana and cracked black pepper - it's like grown-up Mac 'n cheese, just as comforting, far more delightful. Because I'm halfway to Rome, of course we're having double-carbs, and the Garlic Bread with more grana and garlic confit is addictive. Crispy edges, pillowy center, deliciously savory bites of garlicky butter are the ultimate indulgence while spreading out with friends or family (indoors, generous AC and seating for groups, outdoors, a large patio and local music venue). This visit we tried the Risotto al Pomodoro - an incredibly fresh display of perfectly roasted chicken, basil, and house-made cheese atop crisped risotto and a rich tomato sauce. It was creamy, savory, warm, with just the right amount of tart acidity to finish clean, begging for more bites. Patrizi's Salad is the pick (the creamy Italian dressing is an archetype) when going for greens - balance, after all! While waiting, their bar is fully stocked, including some proper Texas Lemonade for the whole family. And that's what they're all about - the Patrizi's serving yours, whether it's a friend family or those we're born with!

This place makes me feel like I've never had freshly made Italian food and pasta until now! I got the Pomodoro and it satisfied that Italian craving. The noodles were indeed homemade and left you feeling satisfied and full but not lethargic. The sauce had a tomato taste with farm cheese dolloped on top. Mixed together, it was perfect. Service was helpful and helped us pick out something from the menu before we ordered in line at the front, which was both unique and inviting. The restaurant has a cute indoor and outdoor area, and the setting seemed more relaxed and casual but nonetheless high quality!

So I never actually ate in this restaurant directly, but my program got it catered for an event nearby. I can't comment on the service or ambiance because of that but the quality of the food was quite good - I really did enjoy the pasta that I had. It did have chicken, but it would've been still just as hearty with only the sauce itself and I could tell there was a lot of butter in it so definitely was pretty filling, even just after eating half of the container of it. Since it was catered, I don't know if there were other options for vegetables (I imagine probably) but I wish we had had some veggies because it was a lot of carbs by itself. If I wanted Italian food again and a Patrizi's was nearby I would absolutely eat there again! But given the nearest one is a bit far from me, I don't think I would seek it out otherwise.

I love Patrizi's! I was a regular customer of the food truck back during 2020-2021 when I was still living in Austin. My favorite dish is the Great Leopold, just love the fresh taste of the sauce on the pasta. I also highly recommend the garlic bread; the confit garlic just melts in your mouth and is so delicious! This most recent visit I went to their new location on the west side and it was a great experience. The outdoor dining area was very fun and easy to enjoy a meal with family and friends. They had outdoor heaters and a live DJ which was great, Drinks were served at the bar inside, and there's a water & utensils station outside for ease of use. This was the first time we tried dessert, and we had the ice cream with olive oil. Sounds weird at first, but it was so good. The oil added a nice texture to the ice cream and honestly went very well with it.

This was my first time going to Patrizi's and I'm really glad they opened a brick and mortar with extended hours! The restaurant is quite big and there's lots of indoor and outdoor seating. They had a DJ playing music outside and it was beautifully set up with lights all around the patio. We ordered the cacio e pepe, carbonara, diavolo, and leopold. They were all delicious, but my favorites were the cacio e pepe and carbonara! Both were creamy and had lots of flavor. The diavolo was tart and spicy which was quite good as well, and the leopold was bright from the pesto. Everything was delicious and I had a great time! Highly recommend Patrizi's and will definitely be back.

Came here for lunch on a late Saturday morning, looked like we were the first customers of the day We'd been to the food truck quite a few times, so we wanted to try something specific to this location. The pizza on focaccia sounded interesting, so we decided to split a mushroom and pesto pie. I asked if it would be possible to add sausage to one half, which they said was okay. We were surprised when they made it a half Italian sausage pie instead. The person taking our order said they understood what we meant, and that the kitchen just did it wrong. The pizza was quite good, all the ingredients were very tasty, it had ample toppings, and the bread had a nice level of crunch. With that said, it would have to be one of the best pizzas I'd ever had to justify $30 for a pizza of this size, especially considering they got the order wrong. Very yummy, just not something I can see myself ordering again. The vibe overall felt very unwelcoming, as if we had visited someone's house uninvited. We asked a few simple questions and the responses we received really made it feel like we were a burden. They had been open for over a half hour at that point so it wasn't as if we caught them right at opening. Overall, we'll probably stick to the food truck in the future. If you're in the area and craving the food trucks offerings I think they're still worth going for, but I wouldn't go out of your way to explore the menu items unique to this location

Brilliantly fresh and flavorful Italian food with a great outdoor space to enjoy. Salads were fresh, delicious, and unique. Meatball panini was hearty and satisfying. Everything has a bit of something special that elevates it from traditional Italian fare. Staff was friendly, attentive, and service was quick. We will be back!

I love patrizis and was excited to try the brick and mortar location. They have more options than the food truck, but I'm always here the for pasta. The pomodoro and carbonara are my favorites. I got the half size of each and they were delicious. Parking is kinda limited, but there's plenty of space to eat inside.

Such an interesting spot to have homemade high quality pasta in a casual Americana setting. The pasta itself is so delicious and the setup feels unique to me. I wish there were more varieties in the red wine they offer but I tried 3 different pasta dishes and each was fantastic. We also tried the affogato this time which was tasty. My husband loves this place so we'll always be sure to stop by whenever we're in town.

Patrizi's isn't just one of the best Italian places in Austin, it's one of the best I've ever been to. This place is amazing. Before even talking about the food, I have to talk about the restaurant itself. The inside is nice and homey and the outside is a great patio under the trees and they even have live music most weeks. It was a little cold this night but they had heaters to make it really pleasant so we sat outside despite the weather. Their cocktails are special--they have homemade limoncello and liqueurs and syrups that make every drink feel like a step up from other places. But of course the real winner is the food. The pasta and bread are handmade and just so good that I'm getting hungry writing this, which is always a good sign. We ordered the $55 2-person feast that includes a bit of everything. It included a salad with a vinaigrette that was so good that we finished it despite everything else on our plates. The beet salad made me like beets! The garlic bread was so good that we didn't have time to even contemplate how good it was before it was gone (and it was covered in roasted garlic and Parmesan). The meatball was fun to take bites of between our three pastas. And we spent the whole meal trying to decide which pasta was our favorite, because the pesto, red sauce, and cheese and oil "sauce" were all so good that we couldn't possibly decide. We've been here a few times but this is our new favorite restaurant.

We were in the area and was looking for a quick bite somewhere, and stumbled upon Patrizi's. We ordered two items from the menu to share and absolutely loved them! Chicken Parm Sandwich - Generous amount of chicken that was prepared and seasoned perfectly; focaccia bread was toasted. It was flavorful and with the perfect amount of melted cheese too. Pomodoro Pasta - Housemade pasta, prepared perfectly al dente and the tomato sauce was so tasty. Would 100% recommend; and will definitely be coming back - they have a patio area and a great selection of drinks too!

PATRIZI'S IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST PASTA IN AUSTIN, HANDS DOWN!! Y'all get ready for my review because I have a lot of wonderful things to say. Shoutout to Joey and Eric for taking care of us and giving exceptional service! This was my first time at the Cuernavaca location which has a different vibe than Manor. I like them both but I think this west location is now my favorite. People ask me about food recommendations and Patrizi's is always at the top of my list. Excellent bar selection with extremely knowledgeable bartenders. The carbonara is my go-to; it has so much flavor. I tried the margarita pizza and seared risotto and Marfa tomatoes and they were great, carbonara still wins for me. And save room for some delicious sundaes. Patrizi's you never disappoint. Thanks for making my birthday so special!!

Horrible customer service. Loved this place until the unaccommodating bar manager wouldn't allow us to customize a drink that is sold in a drink form or without as a mocktail. I'm allergic to tequila and she claimed it wasn't made to be with vodka and tough luck basically. Shocked they allow this at such a nice family establishment. Customer should always come first and seems like an easy accommodation.

First time venturing to this quaint, mountain-lodge type restaurant nestled back in a neighborhood near the river/lake. I went based on Yelp reviews and was pretty happy overall. I'm on a lowering my carbs kick so it is nice that you can get a 1/2 order of their house made pasta (all fettucine) with the various sauces. I chose the red one because I wanted to try the meatball, which was very very good - as was the pasta and sauce. The pasta was a perfect al dente as well. I had a house salad along with it that was massive and very fresh. Ordering is a little odd in that you open your tab at the first counter and then proceed to the bar for any beverage including tea or soda. The bartender was helpful and I got my drink and found a table. You have a table tag and they bring out the order. When you're done you close out your tab either at bar or front ordering counter. Really cool ambience.. hard to describe but the pictures already on yelp are accurate. When you close your tab there are the customary tip recommendation percentages.. which I thought were a little high since you don't really get full wait staff service... I don't mind tipping the cashier/bartender and people that bring out the food, but it's not full service so I think they should start the recommended tip at 10%.

This is a cool place and the food is good. Very grateful for the many vegetarian options. But please consider the salt level in your dishes. They are extremely salty and make it hard to taste the dish.

I am updating this review as I revisited this awesome place almost a year ago. We sat down on the grassy area this time as my friend has a toddler so they can't sit still very long. :) My friend went in to get a drink with her baby on her hip and came back with the owner carrying her drink for her!! Now that's service!! She talked to him about how much she loves the original spot on Manor. The bottom grassy area is lovely. They built a stage way at the end since the last time I was there and added a lot more picnic tables. Maybe they have music? I'll have to check the website. Hold please. Yes- they do have music and on Wednesday nights they have trivia. I ordered the rainbow salad and it was amazing!! Check out the photo and you will realize why they named it that.

This was my first time checking out the brick and mortar location of Patrizi's and I was so impressed. We came here at a week night and had no problem finding a table. They have ample indoor and outdoor space and it is seat yourself as you order food and drinks at the counter. The service was exceptional as everyone was so helpful at providing suggestions and checking on us. The food is incredible and this location offers a larger selection than the food truck. I can't recommend checking this place out enough. Everything you order will be amazing! I can't wait to come back on the weekend and enjoy yummy food and live music on the patio

Ambiance: 4.5/5 Food: 4/5 Amazing ambiance! We went there to celebrate my birthday. It was 100°F with real feel of 107°F. They have a setup of most plus fans which really helps to beat the heat. It is pet friendly restaurant. Our friends have a dog so it was plus for outdoor seating. Everyone had a nice time. Food is good. Service is excellent. We were there in the restaurant for couple of hours. Not that busy on Saturday. Live music is good added touch. Our order is as shown in pictures. All dishes were good. However my personal favorite was Pomodoro pasta over pesto.

Parking - in front and round the side Service- bartender was knowledgeable and really friendly. Would def come back for drinks. How it works? Order food at the front. Go to the bar to order cocktails. Food - the caprese sandwich was delicious. I was a bit surprised at how much flavor and texture came through. The ingredients were fresh, the bread both soft and crispy, and all the flavors complimented each other. My partner did have an issue with the chicken parm, I won't discuss it here as I'm sure it's not that common, but I suggest the CAPRESE. Trivia night on wed! Outside has a huge outdoor area where I am sure they will have live music. Side note: love that they up-cycle jars for cups

My boyfriend and I wanted to try a new place to eat, we visited the Cuernavaca location which is a restaurant. The other Patrizi's is a food truck at the Vortex location on Manor Road. If you didn't know, the food truck it is the original Patrizi's. Everything is homemade; the pasta noodles, the cheese, the wine, the bacon, EVERYTHING! The restaurant is seat yourself and they have indoor and outdoor seating. The patio is a bit small, but nice nonetheless and around nighttime it's perfect to be seated outside. The ambiance is very chill and relaxing, they had music playing softly and the decor in the restaurant wasn't overwhelming, everything complemented the restaurant. Since we had never been before, one of the employees gave us the rundown on everything and was super nice! Basically you can get a regular plate of pasta or a half portion and the same can be done for the salads. I am not sure if the same applies at the Vortex location. My boyfriend and I were hungry so we got full portions. Pictured at the bottom: I got the Diavolo pasta which had the perfect amount of spice and lemon. I also had the cucumber basil mocktail (green drink) it was refreshing and not too sweet, almost like a fresh lemonade. My boyfriend and I each got our own garlic bread (it's a must), we also got the Patrizi's house salad to share (which I nearly ate all by myself, it was sooo good), and pictured at the top left is the Carbonara pasta which was so creamy and the bacon was amazing along with the pink lady cocktail. The food was great, and the flavor was all there, however, the pasta was barely warm when it came out and got cold pretty quickly while eating. Other than wishing the pasta had come out hotter everything was delicious to say the least and do recommend to try it out if you haven't!

Patrizi's pasta is such a staple here in Austin. The price for a meal here is very reasonable. The food is consistent at both of their locations. All of their homemade, hand pulled pasta is delicious and perfectly cooked al dente. My favorites are the carbonara and Pomodoro! Definitely treat yourself to some garlic bread loaded with garlic confit. My friends and I like participating in trivia with Geeks Who Drink, and this particular location has been one of our favorites because of the food. GWD hosts here on Wednesday evenings in the outdoor area. Parking is a bit difficult as the lot fills up quickly, and the road is dark.

We love Patrizis ans while we usually visit the one at the Vortex, we really like the ambiance in the outpost on Cuernavaca. We especially like the indoor and outdoor space which are both very dog friendly. They had live music on the steel drums when we were there and the patio is a vibe although in hindsight we might have sat inside because it was a bit warm and there were some flies. Service is order at the counter when you walkin and servers deliver food to your table. Everyone was pretty friendly and made sure we were enjoying our meal. The food is the star here. You have to try the garlic bread; it's the best thing on the menu and everything is else is so good. We got a side salad which was good, the pizza is incredibly fresh and crispy straight from the pan it was cooked in. The leopold pasta is really good. Overall even though it's a drive from where we leave we will be back again soon!

This was my first time going to this location a few months back. We had a wonderful experience. It is counter service to order. Get there early because it gets packed! Chris recommend this cucumber cocktail and he made it and it was delicious and a perfect summer drink. We all shared different pastas but the Cacio was my fave. Shoutout to Chris for also recommend the soft serve with olive oil... I've been dying to go back just for that! Great spot well around!

Don't let the made from scratch thing fool you. The food was disgusting to say the least. Instead of cacio e Pepe, I got Pepe e Pepe. The garlic bread was only 2 sticks for $7 and was not worth it. The buttered noodles tasted really strong. The pasta with red sauce and meatballs was probably the most gross. It was cold and doused in onions and had a taste that we can't really describe it, it was just not good at all. It seems that they douse ingredients in that make it so overbearing. We are super disappointed. This taste nothing like Italy or let alone upscale Italian food. By the way, if you want water or a coke, they give you these tiny cups. Not worth it!

Come at night if you try this place out. Most people heard about the pasta, which is only served at night. I unfortunately came during the day, so I could only order salads and sandwiches. The salad and sandwich were okay. Not really worth the price for the amount I got. I didn't walk out feeling full. At least the service was good and the interior was beautiful. They even had a patio that would've been lovely to sit outside at if the weather was more pleasant the day I went. Parking is tight. Try coming when it's not lunch rush or dinner rush because it would be a nightmare if you were trying to park while another car was trying to leave their parking space. Or visa versa.

Was already an avid fan of Patrizi's but I think I love it even more after costing their Cuernavaca location! Tucked away in beautiful hilly country, it's the perfect patio adventure. They have a more extensive menu at this location and it did not disappoint! Fresh pasta, bread and risotto. You can't complain! Staff friendly as always. It's worth the drive if you're wanting a bit more intimate and cute spot to go as a date or even with a group of friends!

Went here for lunch right at 1pm on a weekday this summer. We decided to come to this location versus their main, other one, as we heard this one was far less popular and trafficked. Word on the street was right, as it was so slow that we were the only customers in there at the time, so service was prompt. Staff was personable, knowledgeable, & friendly. We both ordered the patrizi's salad and the non-alcoholic, pomegranate shirley. Both of us thoroughly enjoyed our salads & shirleys! The chicken thighs on the salad were juicy and extremely tender, and the veggies on the salad were crisp & fresh. While skeptical at first that they didn't have any ranch dressing on hand, i was pleasantly surprised at how much i loved their house vinaigrette dressing on the salad! The shirley was a refreshing drink & complimented the salad well. I will be back for more, bet !

Pasta was al dente, not in a good way. Meatballs were dry. Great option if you're in the area and who I presume was either the owner (possibly the manager) was very hospitable.

Very memorable garlic bread, let it the garlic bread sit and turn into a garlic sponge . Tried half portions of the red sauce with chicken and carbonara. I liked the red sauce, chicken was cooked fine, but maybe a little overdone. Carbonara was good but not as rich/creamy and heavy as I was expecting. Pasta was cooked well but a little bland. Definitely recommend overall, especially for the garlic bread.

Tried the soft serve ice cream today. So delicious! This is the Sprinkles flavor but we can't wait to try all of the others. Service was great as usual!

I have always loved this neighborhood and the location is tough for a restaurant, but man do they deliver on flavor!!! Most places sell either salt or sugar and there is none of that here. From the drinks to the pasta, salads and bread there is a TON of lovely and diverse flavors. Clearly made with love . Loved it!!

The food was good but the lack of service completely negates that. You have to order at the counter, get your drinks at the bar with no bar service and get your own water and refills. And all drink refills. Then they actually have the audacity to ask for a tip?!??

The food here is amazing. So fresh. So homemade tasting. Perfectly plated and sized. Patrizis restaurant itself has that wonderful Austin vibe with organic decor, loads of outdoor seating and a bandstand. We were there for lunch and ordered the Patrizis salad with chicken and the flavor was both unique and tasty. The garlic bread side order might as well have been from the dessert menu it was that delectable. On this Friday afternoon around 2p, the place was fairly empty -I'm assuming because after 4p the menu opens to pasta dishes and live music. The outdoor seating was so cute and offered chalk buckets and lots of grass to allow for kiddo fun as well. Coming back for my birthday to see how the nightlife and noodles match up.

I've been to Patrizi's at the vortex and have had great food. I heard about the store front (with some different menu items) I decided to stop by. Parking is kind of tight so heads up. You walk in and it is counter service. The staff is very kind and explained everything. The food I had was okay, it wasn't amazing. The flavor of the bolognese was there but the pasta came out borderline warm/cold. The seared risotto (which was excited for) was cold. Also the pesto sauce it came with was aggressively spicy (no where on the menu did it say that it was spicy, so heads up). My tongue was numb. The focaccia was really good had no issues there.

West Austin has more to brag about besides it's rolling hills and breathtaking lookouts. We came here on a weekday for an early lunch, and it was one of the best meals we've had in awhile. Everything is made in house and you can really taste it! We were lucky to be able to catch the end of breakfast to try their Italian hot pockets and foccacia bread. The sweet hot pocket is filled with Nutella, pepita, and pecans. It was like tasting an inverted Ferrero Rocher, but replace the crunchy part with homemade dough and powdered sugar. Yummy! The bacon hot pocket is a nice choice for a savory snack or light breakfast. The most surprising favorite was the mushroom foccacia bread. The foccacia is about the surface area of a slice of bread you get in most loaves you get at the store, but in thickness and flavor, it's superior. The bread is covered from end to end with delicious mushrooms- I think there's more than one type of mushroom on it. There are some greens and fresh cheese on top. It was amazing! If you come here for lunch, you'll find a different menu with a choice of salads and sandwiches. We opted for the chicken parm sandwich and it was a great decision! It comes with their homemade foccacia, juicy fried chicken, and the most amazing marinara sauce. I can drink the sauce- it's so good! There's a mixture of yellow cheese in the sauce and some fresh parmesean flakes generously garnished on the sauce. Tip: Save any left over bread to dab on any sauce that falls out of the sandwich! My only gripe is that pasta dishes are only offered during dinner, so we weren't able to try it this time. The food truck location is great, but in several ways this brick and mortar is better. Its a perfect date spot or place to take friends or family. There is plenty of outdoor seating, and no line!

YUM. The service here, amazing. Food, amazing. Ambiance, amazing. My friend and I ordered the spicy italian sausage pizza-- they make their pizza on focaccia, excellent decision on their part AND everything is made in house. For pasta we did the split whole order, so we got the lemon thyme and the pomodoro. We both weren't huge fans of the pomodoro, it was too sweet for me but the lemon thyme was top tier. The pasta is cooked al dente and knowing it's made in house makes it that much better. We went on a Friday night and they had live jazz playing on the patio. It was just the nicest way to spend a summer Friday evening. The music wasn't too loud either which is greatly appreciated.
