- BBradVIPAustin •25 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAbsolutely fantastic on everthing. Food, ambience, service, just fantastic! The entry area or waiting area is about the only thing that could be improved but you need a reservation in advance to dine here so the wait is not long. The prices are fantastic and candidly they could charge more. This is a must stop restaurant in Austin.More infoRed Ash ItaliaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.9
