    Italian Cucina is our go-to Friday night spot! We love coming here for happy hour and dinner—the food is always incredible, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the service never disappoints. It’s a great value for the quality, and consistently one of our favorites in Austin. Highly recommend!

    It's Italian is clearly the best Italian restaurant in Austin, Texas. It is beautiful and the food is authentic with everything that is made on site. We love it and we love Al Fini, It's Italian's owner. We have never ever had a less than perfect meal there. We like to go there for special occasions and sometimes take friends.
