   This was a lovely experience. The restaurant is quiet, tastefully decorated and very spacious. The food is excellent - almost bold in its simplicity. I had roasted figs stuffed with goat cheese and wrapped in prosciutto, a simple mixed green salad (just a TINY bit overdressed and also needing one more element to give it another dimension), and fresh pappardelle with wild boar ragu - braised deeply in red wine and deep in flavor, and pasta perfectly cooked. I didn’t have wine but the list seemed excellent. This restaurant is authentic Italian and doesn’t need to say that out loud (and it doesn’t). Highly recommend

   BE ADVISED: I'll start with saying I can see why this restaurant had so many good reviews. The food is good and the restaurant is beautiful. However this was our first and most likely last visit. I have been going back and forth with exactly what to say in this review and decided to speak out to potentially save someone else an unpleasant experience. After being sat my partner and I had explained this was our first time visiting, we were handed both our menu and wine menu and given time to review. I should add the wine menu is extensive. We had several questions about both but received no real overview of either. After being left alone with the menu for an extended amount of time we gave up and finally just ordered when the waitress finally came back. By this point we felt uncomfortable and less than welcomed. I hate to mention this but it was hard not to notice my partner and I were the only inter racial couple in the entire restaurant. We would have loved to have ordered drinks and more food if someone would hav taken the time to walk us through the menu a little more. It felt very apparent that this restaurant seems to cater to a specific demographics. If you are looking for an inclusive dining experience I'd suggest staying closer to downtown Austin.

   I hadn’t been to Siena in many years because the food struck me as ordinary. Much has changed. Every single item was superb this time around, well prepared, flavorful, and attractively presented. I will return soon.

   Our server, Jon, was excellent. He was efficient and gracious at the same time! Considering it was Mothers Day and the restaurant was packed, that was quite an accomplishment. The food is consistently delicious at Siena and we were glad we made an early reservation.

   Great, private, intimate restaurant for amazing food, stellar service and to mark a casual night out or a very special occasion. We have been dining at Siena since it first opened and it a rare gem of a restaurant in that the consistent quality has never changed.

    The hostess wasn’t welcoming! Making a big drama of a reservation of 3 vs 4 since I have a lap child. At the end, I knew they were going to seat me in a table of 4… so her point was disappointing.

    Made reservations for my best friends birthday. We were seated quickly and offered the balcony for our dining experience due to the special occasion. Which was very thoughtful of them. The restaurant was beautiful, and the food was absolutely amazing. Our waitress was truly a delight, and our service was 10/10. Will definitely be recommending this gem to others!

    Excellent food and service. Building looks great. Only complaint I have is that there were a little too many tables in the room we were sat in, so it was a little loud with all the ongoing conversations. I could hear everything the tables next to us were saying because the tables were so close together.

    Great meal as alway. We shared and sampled a salad, the Mele, some meatballs, and the ravioli. Topped it off with Tiramisu. We are fairly light eaters, so this is a great way for us to enjoy a lot of restaurants. Siena is always very accommodating. Lina, our waitress was lovely and personable as well as attentive. Nice evening all around. We like Siena early in the week when it is less crowded and a bit quieter.

    We love Siena & live close by so we go about every 2 months. We love your frito misto calamari as an appetizer & we usually get your salmon with crab & shrimp. Last night we were not that hungry so we ordered the chicken with the portobello mushroom & split it. Out of frito misto so we just got the appetizer calamari. The chicken was delicious. Our complaint was the wait service. She never came by to check on if we needed anything. I would have liked to have another glass of wine & my husband more water. Never offered bread. We asked if you still have it & were told yes but did not get it. She came by & slapped the ticket on our table & never said anything. Just ran off. Same when she picked it up. Never been treated so rudely at Siena.

    Very disappointing. We’re been coming here for years and really enjoyed their Mother’s Day brunch last year. So, we booked for Easter brunch. The food was below average and poorly seasoned. The Quiche was very dry and tasteless. Service was inattentive. We won’t make the same mistake again and have struck Siena off our list of where to dine.

    We dine at Siena perhaps 2+ times a year. Also enjoy taking out of town guests there. It is a beautiful room accompanied by ample free parking. Excellent menu choices and always friendly, attentive service. Siena remains one of our preferred "to to" dining options. It never disappoints.

    Our server was wonderful. The restaurant was beautiful. The food did not match either. The special NY strip was not a good cut. Super tough. Asked for medium, got rare for most of the steak. Did not send it back as the cut was so bad, it would not have been any better.

    Would have loved to give this place more stars if it wasn't for the general manager. Our waiter was fantastic and food was decent. General manger approached our table after seating us and told my husband to put his hat forward. My husband and myself were both dressed casual but appropriate. My husband had a hat on. Looked on website and there is no dress code. If there is a dress code it should be posted on website. Also others in the restaurant were dressed similar to us. We were celebrating and it really brought the mood down. Probably won't come back unfortunately.
