    The food was delicious. The service was friendly and attentive. The Christmas decor was festive. We had a great meal on Christmas Eve. We each had a sale to start with; my husband had the table side Caesar and I had a house salad. Both were fresh and delicious. For our mai meals, my husband had the cedar plank salmon. It was cooked exactly as he asked and the flavors were great. I had the miso glazed sea bass with black rice. The blend of flavors was tasty and delicious. For dessert, the Sticky toffee pudding is a must and it did not disappoint. Our server was Kevin. He was knowledgeable of the menu and very pleasant and attentive. We have dined at Region before and it was extremely special to be recognized by servers that have waited on us in the past. For a great meal with attentive service and comfortable surroundings, Region is a must.

    Wonderful food and service! All of our appetizers were excellent but the tuna tartar tostada is truly exceptional. The Ceaser salad is great but be sure to mix in the dressing that sits at the bottom of the bowl. Salmon and chicken are outstanding. My filet was slightly over cooked but the sauce and the green beans were delish. Highly recommend this place!

    My friends and I have been coming to Austin's for years on a monthly basis. We are very satisfied with everything about this restaurant, food, service and atmosphere. We are recognized and greeted with a friendly smile every time we go there. I recently tried the Pot Roast Cheese Wedges and they were phenomenal! You will not regret the decision to dine here.
