Bon Appetit Magazine named Austin’s own Olivia in it’s list of ‘Top 10 Best New Restaurants in America.’ Bon Appetit’s ‘dish to try’ is Olivia’s Milk-Braised Pork Shoulder with Semolina Gnocchi. The issue hits newstands August 11. Go Olivia! See my reviews of their brunch, happy hour, and dinner, and stop in this weekend! My one piece of advice is order the bowl of frites for $5. They are the best/ most simple/ cheapest thing on the menu and come with aioli and house-made ketchup.

Returned to Olivia tonight (August 5) after several prior visits. Fantastic as usual. You better visit soon…..because you’re not gonna be able to get in the door in several months. It’s that good! Super laid-back staff make you feel comfortable and relaxed. This place will be an Austin gem for a long, long time.
