“ Lutie's is tucked away at the Commodore Perry estate which is a beautiful property off 45th and Red River. When you walk into the restaurant, you're welcomed by beautiful green tones and plants. Visually the place is stunning. The table setting was gorgeous and were seating next to a window where we were able to see the beautiful property. Bonus. 5 stars - food 4 stars - I wanted to love it I really really did, but there were only a few things I loved. We ordered several things which were meant for sharing. I will touch on the things I loved - the drinks - wow! I normally don't drink mezcal but I had two of the rose drink - gosh I wish I could remember what it was called because it's not on their website but it was too easy to drink! The caviar and martini presentation was awesome. My husband loved being able to make his martini as dirty as he wanted. The scallops were the best thing we ate. The wagyu steak was ok- I'm not a fan of covering beautiful meat with sauces and vegetables. I think meat as expensive as that should stand out as the star. But that's my opinion. I'm glad we tried it and would go back for social hour. I can imagine myself sitting on the patio outside on a beautiful sunny afternoon sipping amazing cocktails. ”

“ First visit to Lutie's celebrated our wedding anniversary. Parking was valet only which was fine. Parking valets were kind and prompt. Inside at Lutie's was quaint and cozy. Bar was full so we had a table. I highly recommend a resy and anticipate sitting close to your fellow diners. Wait staff was very sweet, prompt and courteous. Our only small complaint was bar seemed slow get drinks out to us. We dined on Fritto Misto, Yonderway pork and the trout. All were prepared nicely. YONDERWAY PORK Pricing, though a tad strong, not really over the top. We will return. ”

“ BEAUTIFUL. Servers were very knowledgeable about everything the menu which made the experience all the better. ”

“ I visited Lutie's in the summer of 2023, and though it's been a few months, the charm of the experience has lingered with me. Nestled within the stunning Commodore Perry Estate, this spot feels like a hidden gem where elegance meets comfort. The Food: The flavors were simply outstanding! Each dish was a delightful journey, perfectly executed and beautifully plated (and yes, I took plenty of pictures!). Even though I can't quite recall what each photo captured, I distinctly remember how the dishes were both innovative and comforting. Every bite seemed to carry an extra layer of care and craftsmanship. Drinks: The drinks were just as memorable--refreshing, vibrant, and crafted with attention to detail. Each sip was a little celebration, complementing the meal perfectly. Whether you're a cocktail aficionado or just looking for something light and seasonal, their drink menu delivers. Ambiance: Lutie's strikes a unique balance of lively energy and attentive service. The setting feels intimate yet buzzing with conversation. If I had one small critique, it would be that the tables are placed a bit closer to one another than I prefer. That said, the vibrant atmosphere more than made up for it. The Property: Dining here feels like stepping into a serene, artful escape. While I loved sitting down to enjoy the ambiance, I found myself wishing I had more time to explore the estate's stunning grounds. The lush greenery and historic charm create an inviting backdrop for any meal. All in all, Lutie's offers an exquisite dining experience that's well worth the visit. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to an elevated meal, this is a spot that deserves a place on your must-visit list. Just be sure to carve out time to wander the property--you won't regret it! ”

“ Absolutely fantastic food and service. The location is wonderful nestled in a nice garden close to downtown Austin. The executive chef Bradley is amazing. This is an excellent location for nice meal with your loved one. ”

“ Beautiful restaurant and grounds-- lovely setting to meet friends for a drink and bites at sunset. Service was attentive. Vegetarian selection is okay-- nothing to write home about. ”

“ We arrived at Lutie's 30 minutes late for our reservation and missed the chance to sit inside to admire the beautiful ceiling. No worries, though, because we're already planning our return visit. Service was very attentive and gave a thorough menu rundown, though there was some pressure to order at least 5 dishes, even after we ordered 4 dishes for the 2 of us. We ended up much fuller than anticipated. Their signature estate butter and bread lived up to the hype: beautifully spreadable butter paired with pillow-soft, salty bread packed with flavor even on its own. The scallop crudo, layered with apples and peppers, perfectly hit a tangy, fruity, and slightly spicy flavor palette. So generously portioned too with a bed of scallops. The warm Green Dish salad was super comforting, with smoky, juicy butternut squash. I didn't know butternut squash could be so juicy! The antelope dish, paired with figs, bok choy, and a guajillo sauce, was amazing. I couldn't stop dipping bread in that sauce. It was mind-blowing. For a sweet finish, the Grilled Texas Camembert leaned toward dessert, despite being toasted bread, and had a nice sweet twist. Everything was flawless. We haven't been so excited about food like this in a while. ”

“ Sweet baby Jesus! The food here is outstanding on every level. The five stars and potential Michelin star are well deserved. Everything about this place is meticulous and well thought out. The menagerie of ingredients, spices, cooking techniques and impeccable service all come together to deliver an amazing dining experience. The food is next level. Unique flavors that will awaken taste buds you never knew existed. Our favorites were the Bread and Butter, Barbecued Shrimp and Steak In mushroom sauce. Each dish was jaw dropping delicious. Hard to pick anything wrong on the menu. Talk to your server about your likes and dislikes and they will steer you towards the right dishes. Better yet, throw caution to the wind and just pick a few that sound great. You won't go wrong either way. The service was outstanding. Very attentive and friendly. We will be back. ”

“ Beautiful restaurant, surrounded by greenery. They didn't have openings for dinner so we came here for brunch. The service was fantastic. Our server was welcoming and attentive. We were pleased with what we ordered. Drinks were well-crafted. The mushroom crepe was excellent. Even though the staff said the items were shareable some weren't. We still felt hungry so we ordered the BBQ shrimp and grits. The grits were runny but it was one of the best things we had. It was the most we spent for lunch but what sucks is that we weren't full after we left. I guess we came for the experience. ”
