I love food. If you have been following me for awhile then you know that. Combine my love of food and exploring where I live and BAM we got a post about great places to eat in Austin!
You can see my other Posts about places to eat in Austin here.
This week I am sharing two new places we tried that really enjoyed!
I am rarely in the mood for Italian outside home. Being lactose intolerant kind of kills the buzz when you know that half the plates will be smothered in some kind of dairy plus I legit am just a spaghetti and meatball person. Anyway, I wanted Italian. So we looked at our Google Maps lists and found I had saved just the place!
Red Ash Italia

We actually got there relatively early and ended up just making it for Happy Hour which meant that all the Apps were $9 and the small pasta plates were $8. Turned out to be one of our cheapest meals plus it delicious and the atmosphere was so cute! Check out this back wall
Gloria’s Latin Cuisine
We live right across the street from The Domain which is a big outdoor mall with lots of restaurants/bars/shopping. So it isn’t unusual for us to wander over in search of a food when we don’t feel like driving. We wandered into this place for brunch on a random Sunday before running errands.

They had $2 mimosas and $3 bloody marys….and they were delicious!! I had a Mango Mimosa and a bloody and I think AJS got like 3 Bloodys. I thought the food was good, not amazing but definitely a good choice for latin food near where I live. I’d go back for those drink specials though!
So there you have two new Austin places to try!! If you are ever in the area feel free to reach out and I can give you some recommendations for places to visit and foods to eat!!
