Restaurants near Main Building University of Texas at Austin

Josephine House is a must for anyone new to Austin or even if you’ve been here for years like me. I love the experience every single time, from the service to the incredible food. Today I tried a pumpkin muffin and I usually hate pumpkin. But it was hands-down, the best pumpkin muffin I’ve ever had. I will say parking is always a bit of a challenge. There is a small lot with three or four spaces, but parking on the street is encouraged by the restaurant. Just be respectful of the neighbors and don’t block anyone’s driveway. And do not park in the fresh plus lot. A friend was towed from there previously, so be warned. 

Best meal in Austin! Fantastic experience. And didn't even need to worry about gluten!

Wonderful dining experience! The roasted bone marrow was amazing. We love the pasta special of the evening and the extra special touches they added to our anniversary celebration. Thank you for the sweet anniversary card that we accidentally left on the table. Sammy, our waitress, was so sweet and her recommendations and service were perfect. A very memorable evening!

Esthetically pleasing atmosphere, delicious food, chicken thigh entree worth coming back for, trio of spreads on the lunch special was a great way to share and sample a few different things, nice wine selection, nice, helpful staff.

We were pleasantly surprised that a restaurant on a college campus rivals the best in the city, in every respect. It does.
