68Degrees Reviews

Wonderful meal wine selection and service. Location a little weird as it is next to gas station.

Such a wonderful addition to the Austin restaurant scene. An intimate setting, excellent wine list and great food. If you need to take a break waiting for Mopac traffic to clear, this is a perfect spot to sneak away.

Really good food and a very friendly staff! Definitely will eat here again. Had great gluten-free and vegetarian options. Really good calamari and chicken parm! Definitely will eat here for meals to come!

Excellent food, drinks, wine list and staff. Place is so cool too!

Fresh From Scratch Italian.It doesn't get any better than this.

Great service, great food. After hanging out at Deep Eddy pool it makes for a perfect little stroll to get delicious eats.

Really good service. Food was tasty and a nice cafe atmosphere. Good pasta. Nice selection of food and wine.

Love the wine list, decor, service, menu, parking and staff! Thank your for having all my favorite things!! Found my favorite lunch spot! Nothing better than a cheese board paired with Frogs Leap Chardonnay and Salmon Salads!!

The food and service here are absolutely phenomenal! It was so hard to just pick a few items because everything looked and sounded amazing! Highly recommend for your next Italian meal in Austin.

If you like "new" takes on classic cuisine this is your place. I'm not sure if it's an Austin hipster thing, but it's definitely not classic Italian and it is overpriced. The next day I get a notification from Open Table stating that we didn't honor our reservation?

Dinner was delicious... Stew was on point.
Service was great, AJ was super nice about accommodating food allergies.

Quiet, upscale atmosphere. Food was fresh and tasty.

68 Degrees brought me back to my childhood with that Chef Boyardee sauce on the chicken parmesan

We love Andiamo in Santa Fe and were excited to see they are sister restaurants. Our group ate at 68 degrees for my sister's bachelorette weekend and had an amazing time. The service was great and everyone loved the food. Thanks for a great evening!

We ordered the chicken parmesan and grilled salmon, with caprese salad and the Cesar salad to go. The caprese salad was 70% large tomato wedges with a couple small slices of mozzarella; Cesar salad wasn't cut up at all; and the chicken parmesan sauce tasted like it was from a can. Beautiful ambiance inside, but definitely not worth $60.

Delicious pasta, wonderful service. Will visit again!

Fantastic service and amazing food! The staff is very friendly and professional.

Excellent Bolognese and spicy penne. Decor is lovely and staff is always great!

This place has amazing food. Amazing clean restaurant and friendly staff. Thanks much!

We went before Thanksgiving so maybe that's why it was meh?
We got the fettichini with mushrooms and added chicken. It was underseasoned but with healthy portions.
Also got mixed green salad that was ok as well.

We tried the bolonese and the ravioli and had the same underseasoned issues.

The thing that shined was the polenta appetizer. It was crispy and flavorful with a great sauce.

I'd try this place one more time but it's on probation.

The petite tenderloin was 2 bites. Way too small for $26.

Glad there is another restaurant in our neighborhood! I really like the atmosphere with the outside and inside dining options. The food is good, but too salty for me. We ordered the polenta, which was great and two pasta dishes that were pretty good. The linguini with tuna and the penne with sausage. The linguini was very fishy tasting, but still very good. I would give it 5 stars if it weren't for the salt hangover I had for 2 days after.

68 degrees kitchen has that homey feel to it and they go the extra mile to take care of their customers, feels like how it should feel when doing business with locals. Oh and btw the food was great with awesome prices. I would recommend this place to all of my friends and family when looking for a place to eat.

Just another great place to eat in Austin. Try their sister restaurant in Santa Fe.

Great atmosphere, good food and wine. Service was quite slow but we weren't in a hurry. Server said they don't have any management there which can create chaos when they run into a problem, which I guess happened the night we were there. Don't really understand why they wouldn't have a manager and the server said it sure would be helpful if they did.

Good food in a cozy location. Front desk staff is professional with reservations and etc. Food is brought out fairly quickly. The prices make it difficult for me to eat here often but it is a good place for special occasions.

Ambiance is nice...although a little.loud. service was good. Enjoyed the food but found it good, not great.

My experience at 68 Degrees Kitchen was horrendous. I dinned with a large party, was given the wrong order. Waitress gave me a smirk when I informed her of the incorrect dish; she proceeded to bring out the correct dish suspiciously fast. The chicken that I attempted to eat was under-cooked and quite frankly, disgusting.

After the completion of our meal, the waitress looked at me and asked "what's wrong", I told her that my chicken was under-cooked and tasted poor, she replied with an unemphatic "sorry" and took my dish away.

Furthermore, the waitress forced our party to divie up our own check, calculating who ordered what dish (we were a large group, completely inappropriate). I am astonished at our porous treatment at 68 Degrees and cannot fathom that I spent 16 dollars on a meal I could not eat.

The management made no attempt to remedy our experience. I will recommend friends and family to avoid this establishment.

Really enjoyed the prosciutto sandwich off the lunch menu and local beers. Sitting outside on the deck was very nice.

Had dinner last night with another couple. Atmosphere casual, relaxed and friendly. We all enjoyed our food immensely. I had a lasagna special which was delicious,. My husband had the Bolognese and loved it. Wait staff friendly and helpful. Hope to go back soon.

The oyster fettuccine and lamb meatballs were great. The staff have a great recommendation for wine.

Excellent food, service and an outdoor dining option!

Wonderful experience, lovely atmosphere and great food.

Very small portion sizes. Tastes good but expensive.

I enjoyed the atmosphere of a locally owned restaurant a refreshing break from the corporate chains that tend to dominate the Austin restaurant landscape. The food was outstanding, and the service was excellent.

The Ravioli of the day is a treat. Good service but the dining room was a little breezy from the vents.

The food was good, but the service was bizarre. Among other things, a few of us received plates with side items missing and were told that the chef was unable to make our side items due to a backup in the kitchen. Seriously? That's unacceptable after your order has been confirmed. I do not plan to go back.

Good food and polite service in a quaint but modern and relaxed atmosphere.

We celebrated a birthday and the dinner was delicious!

Really a bummer... Tried to seat us at 6:30 by a wall with a fire extinguisher . Restaurant was 95% empty. The staff managed to seat a very young couple at that terrible table shortly there after. As the menu goes ..no Chardonnay .. No margarita pizza as advertised . The calamari was tough as leather...really as bad as I have ever had . The ravioli was in a tomato sauce out of a can at Randalls . The wait staff was very pleasant and attentive . ...if you're trying to be successful go visit the Grove and learn from their menu , food and wine list.

Absolutely great good and atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Romantic. Limited parking.

Not sure if Mother's Day was an exception but we had a 7:30 reservation for 4 and had to wait even though we showed up early. Another party of 3 showed up before us with a 7:30 reservation and was seated immediately. I over heard the host blaming the seating/reservation system. There was another party of 4 with in the same situation so the staff put together a table. It was basically packing a party of 4 in a 2 person setting. Neither party was pleased with sitting at a small table while starring at the outside table uncomfortably. They need to get it together... not sure if it's worth another attempt.

Try the pasta pomodoro...so light, so flavorful, so darn good! I'll be back again soon.

Pleasant staff, good service and the patio is a beautiful place to sit in the evening. The overall sentiment around the table was that the food was average

Great ambiance and good burgers. Definitely will be back!

Love it. I actually stopped here because traffic was bad. I left with a smile on my face and no traffic! Happy Wednesday specials!

Modern vibe, great service and extensive wine list, food was delicious!

Really good Italian. Loved the Bolognese. For the prices though, I would have expected larger portions

The veal was tough and the marsala had no flavor. The calamari puttanesca had no flavor and the squid was cold. Everthing needed salt and pepper and even that didn't help much. The only saving grace was the waitress who was very nice.

Great find in Austin. Needed a dose of Italian food. We made the right choice with 68 Degrees. Great food n service. The pastas were as good as any place here in NY.

Ample menu, great service and quality food. I'm definitively going back soon. Wheres the brunch?

I absolutely loved this place. Great ambiance, great wine, even greater food! Highly recommend the Penne with Lamb Sausage. Wow!

Great food, wine and and appetizers...The friendly hostess Naomi and waiter Luke will keep you coming back with their friendliness and love of what they do. I feel that this place is another hidden gem with cozy atmosphere with classic content. I will definitely come again and would recommend this establishment if you hungry and thirsty for Italian dining.

Great service, quality food, nice atmosphere. Nice that it's near the lake, trail, and zilker if you want to do something before hand and then pop into 68 after

delicious food, friendly service, and an amazing neighbor. Note from Lake Austin Exxon

We had a larger party (12 ppl) but still waited about 1.5 hours for our food. I ordered the Mac and cheese balls and only got 5 out of the 7 I was supposed to get and they were still cold inside and desperately needed seasoning. They were nice enough to give it to us for free but the rest our food also needed a lot of seasoning. I wouldn t come here again.

Great italian dishes, including pasta and specialties. Nice atmosphere.

Flavors are great. Good size portions. The only disappointment is the soft overcooked pasta even after asking for al dente. Will go back for non pasta dishes though.

Great service, friendly staff, and small but very satisfying menu flexibility!


and (removed) parmesan cheese. The rest of their menu a bit hard to be flex-able with but a few of their salads can also be converted. Their bread appetizer is also vegan. The meal was delightful! I hope to see in the future more flexibility towards meatless and dairy free options, as they would most certainly expand their their market base!

A wonderful experience with amazing food. I'll go back again and again.

Reserved table through Open Table App ... Arrived on time .. Table was ready .. very nice cozy 2 person table next to another another 2 people table ... atmosphere felt like small restaurants in Europe. Menu was very clear, not long but very good selection. Great appetizers, Pasta, Salads, Soups, Fish, Meat. Just right amount to not spend 15 minutes choosing ... Food was delicious, ingredients very fresh and very tasty ..

Caprese salad and ravioli both amazing. Cozy atmosphere with friendly service...excited to have this gem in the Deep Eddy neighborhood!

Service and food is excellent. Lunch portion can be a little light if you are really hungry but that seems to be a trend everywhere in Austin and it's a minor thing here so I would still give it 5 of 5 stars.

Great food. It's weird being next to a gas station, but the back patio is nice.

Wine selection was ok. However, I feel bad for any couples that went here on valentines days. We both left feeling very ill after eating their food. Not so romantic!

Quite possibly the best Italian food I ve had in my life. This is not an exaggeration.

Great atmosphere, great food and staff, needs better parking,

Casual atmosphere with good food at reasonable prices.

Server was great. She clarified that the special salad had pork. Good portions and fresh ingredients.

Amazing food loved the Ravioli and wine selection was fantastic.

Last night, my family and I (11 people) went to 68 Degrees Kitchen and we LOVED it! The food was outstanding. The Fettucine with Portabella and Crimini Mushrooms was awesome. The Mac and Cheese Balls were definitely a favorite at our table. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Luke was excellent. He catered to our needs with no problem. Everyone loved his presence and did a great job. We all enjoyed it very much, and plan to go again.

Polenta was definitely the best. Everything was delicious and came promptly and hot. Calamari was fantastic. Large portions with enough to share. Can't wait till the pizza oven is up and running.

A wonderful place! We reserved for a group of seven and had a nice inside spot. A very intimate place with nice, soft lighting and wonderful, friendly staff. A good place to enjoy handmade pastas and great wine selection.

1st time I dined at 68*Degrees, had the Fried Mac & Cheese appetizer and penne with house made lamb sausage! Was phenomenal and has me wanting to come back and try the other items on the menu. Also outdoor seating is available and is dog friendly so took my fur baby and life was good

Cheers,
