Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Chef/Owner John Carver

From the OpenTable editors: It can take months to get into Chef John Carver’s wildly popular Italian restaurant, where there’s a custom woodfired grill at the heart of the industrial space. But it’s worth the wait for fresh pasta and epic steaks, like the cappelletti “bishop’s hats” stuffed with spinach and sauced with brown butter, alongside a 50-day dry-aged porterhouse “la Fiorentina.” Don’t miss the charred veggies, like roasted vine tomatoes with creamy burrata, and wash it all down with a house negroni.

    The food is excellent and well worth waiting a couple of months to get in. As expected, it's pricey, but I found the value to be good. We have paid more, for less quality, even in the Austin area. I recommend the Halibut, but the Short Ribs special, and the Pasta Bolognese were also amazing. All good!

    Another excellent dinner at Red Ash despite the vent issue when we arrived which almost shut the place down. We stayed for a cocktail and bread to see if dinner would be able to be served and viola! problem fixed and dinner was fantastic!

    We made a reservation at the bar but when we arrived the seats available were next to the front door. Given that it was 31 degrees out those seats would have been uncomfortable with the door constantly being opened and closed. We asked if we could move and she kindly moved us upstairs. Something very much appreciated. The waiter was personable and provided great service. The food was excellent and not overpriced. All in all a nice night out.
