• Contemporary American • Downtown
Booked 10 times today
Nightcap was originally conceived as a place for sweet sustenance and sparkling cocktails. Since then, we have evolved into so much more. Our space is now known as a late night, date night spot for guests and friends alike. The cozy atmosphere is welcoming, romantic and is also a great place to dine solo. It’s a space to make new friends, enjoy some incredibly tasteful food and cocktails that aim to please. Nightcap carries an old school Austin vibe that is hard to be classified as a bar or restaurant. We like to consider ourselves as a nightly dinner party at your friends house. The idea is to come over, have a great time and let us clean up afterwards. On special occasions, glitter is our favorite color that is often paired with bubbles. We hope you join us for any occasion and truly enjoy your evening.

    First time to Nido and won't be our last. The view is simply stunning of the Austin skyline. We sat outside and we loved it. The staff was attentive and friendly. The food was great and drinks were done well. Highly recommend for a unique experience sitting on the outdoor patio.

    Beautiful restaurant, we elected to sit outside under the gorgeous oak trees; when it looked as though it might rain, the staff rushed to put up umbrellas and make sure we were comfortable staying out there. Really appreciated the waitstaff and service received, as well as the impeccably prepared food. Can't wait to dine with you all again!

    We had the most amazing server, Vincenzo. He was so helpful and patient with me and any request I made.Vincenzo even had a surprise tiramisu packaged us for us to take home. The food was to die for! The blue crab pasta was easily the best thing on the menu and should be ordered by everyone. The only item we ordered that I didn’t completely love was the bone marrow because it was served with very oily bread which paired with bone marrow was just too heavy.

    This is my go to place for dates or out of town guests! Always 10 out of 10 from service to drinks to the food! I love this place so much, when I first moved to Austin, I told my realtor she could pick any neighborhood to look as long as it was no more than a 10 minute Uber ride from ATX Cocina!!!
