    This place is a gem. Same owner who brought Uno's to the 360 and Westlake drive location. The food was outstanding. The warm burrata was delicious. And the gluten free options are really enticing. Great service and very knowledgeable wait staff. Will be back for sure!

    We rolled the dice and chose Italian Cucina for a quick dinner. We started with the Bruschetta (gluten free bread was available) and it was very good. I chose the wild mushroom risotto and it was piping hot,cooked perfectly and the flavor was phenomenal. My husband chose the chicken piccata and he too really enjoyed it. We will be back for sure.

    This was a gem of a find! Our server Vickie was very accommodating. We ordered the meatballs & foccacia bread for starters. Then we ordered the chicken piccata and chicken marsala-both equally amazing! We will definitely return!

    This is a complete outstanding restaurant! The food is excellent, the menu is varied, you have lots of appetizing choices and the service is attentive and courteous, the ambiance is cozy, modern and makes you feel comfortable. I have visited many restaurants in Austin and I think this is one of the best restaurants the city has to offer. I recommend it highly.

    The food was delicious, and the service was perfect. Everything we ordered came out quickly. There was a live piano player which added an elegance to the ambiance. The decor is very well done, and the place is possibly the cleanest restaurant I've ever eaten at. The open kitchen concept is very well laid out. Overall, a great restaurant and I'll be back.
