Excellent meal; service could have been more attentive. Parking was easy--50 feet to the door; very quiet restaurant. Will go back--have been here probably 20 times in last 10 years.

Wink continues to be a treasure-- excellent food, attentive service, and superb wine. The seven-course dinner with wine pairings is a dining extravaganza and worthwhile.

I've been coming to Wink for years. It is my favorite restaurant in Austin. They have delivered consistently excellent food, wine & service to my dining parties for decades! I just visited again to introduce my daughter to a truly fine dining experience for the first time & it might have been the best food, wine & service experience I've had there yet. I can't recommend them enough!

Wink is a great restaurant. The food is perfectly prepared and imaginative without being excessively involved. Service is the same- friendly,warm, and thoughtful without being intrusive. They are particularly good on wine- ready to recommend but you'll never feel that you're unsophisticated. The noise level is reasonable. There's a generous, welcoming spirit to the place.

I have never had a bad meal at Wink, and I'm sure I never will! Every course was impeccable - fresh, tasty, and interesting. The service is always wonderful and the wine list is stellar! No better place in Austin to go for a quick bit or to celebrate a special event.

We (4 diners) all selected the 5 course tasting menu with wine pairings. The food was delicious. The wine pairing were perfect with each course. Three of us substituted one or more of the courses with other selections on their menu, no problem. Our waiter, Cody, is very knowledgeable about wine, and provided excellent service. We’ve been coming here for years, and have always been happy with their service & food.
