Olive & June

Great food and great atmosphere. Went here as a group of 6 and they were super accommodating and very friendly.

The food we had was great, almost had about half the menu collectively, and the wine was also really good, even at the lower cost point.

The ambiance is really nice. We sat in doors since it was colder outside, but both areas are really nice.

Would recommend trying this place out

There were 7 of us including my son and his fiance and we were all excited to see the 3rd floor space and try the food as a possible rehearsal dinner location. We were told when we checked in that someone would come to our table at the end of our meal to escort us to the 3rd floor to see everything but this never happened. To say that our service was poor that night would be a vast understatement. It took over 30 minutes to receive our initial drinks we ordered once we were seated. My son's duck was served raw and had to be sent back. My son's fiance's mom had to wait an additional 10 minutes from our entrees being served for hers to arrive as it appears her order was left off. Our server seemed flustered and unapologetic about the length of time everything was taking. At the conclusion of our dinner, we were the only people remaining in the restaurant and again, no one ever came to our table to talk with us about the event space. Furthermore, we questioned the automatically charged Employee Wellness tax that was included on our bill (along with the mandatory 20% gratuity since our party was over 6 people despite the fact that our service was deplorable) and our server wasn't sure what it was and had to go ask someone and then came back to say it covers their health insurance. We would not be pleased to have to pay a tax on an expensive rehearsal dinner for 50 people to cover the health insurance of the restaurant employees.

In conclusion, the entire experience was shockingly bad and it was clear that no one was interested in any further business from us.

Visited for Valentine's Day dinner, and had a lovely experience! Service is exceptional. We were half an hour early for our reservation but the host graciously seated us right away. All tables received a single rose which I thought was a beautiful touch. Our waiter was attentive and helpful as we perused the menu, providing recommendations proactively and answering our questions.

The cocktail list is extensive but I was surprised to see all cocktails were whiskey based. Would be great to see some variety of spirit choices here. We ordered the Honey I'm Home and the Bramble On. The Bramble On was fantastic and memorable!

We ordered the pork meatballs for appetizer - these were fantastic! Highly recommend. Love how they incorporated fig into the dish for just a hint of sweetness. The meat was tender and the sauce is bursting with flavor.

For mains, my husband ordered the capellini (pesto pasta with crab), and I ordered the bucatini all'amatriciana. The capellini was delightful - the pesto tasted fresh and delicious with a nice crunch from the pine nuts. Good quality crab as well. My bucatini was pretty good but a tad too heavy.

For dessert we chose the dark chocolate tort. Very rich and heavy but delicious!

Another wonderful date night spent at our favorite Olive & June. Once again, the staff is always welcoming and very present throughout the night. I always forget which red wine it is that we enjoy so I'll write it here for others and my own future reference (nebiollo).

They have a small menu of items that get rotated throughout the seasons and everything is worth trying. They also do meat substitutions with veggies/mushrooms if you prefer.

We went out for a dinner with a couple of friends at Olive & JUNE and the overall experience was amazing! They have the best outdoors for evening/night time, in my opinion! It looks magical like you're at a wedding party or holiday gathering. I just love the vibes and their food was exquisite.

AMBIENCE/LOCATION: This restaurant is hidden on 35th St. Their indoor space is quite small but they have an outdoors that is wonderfully decorated with lighting and it's covered so you're protected from rain or cold wind. We went there when it was cold and we were seated outdoors where they have decorative lights like the holidays and the space was closed off with fancy clear plastic tents protecting you from the wind/cold air with commercial outdoor heaters. I was setting close to the heater and I was so comfortable all night. The lights are dim and romantic if you're on a date it's magical, or like a holiday gathering if you're with friends or family (Note: it's not a suitable place to bring younger children in my opinion).

FOOD: We ordered drinks and appetizers to start off and let me tell you their cocktails were SO good (I had to order a second glass ). Their flavor profiles were quite creative and the overall food was exceptional.

SERVICE: Our server was friendly and attentive and even though it was packed that day, we didn't have to wait long for our food.

PRICE: the price is expensive but you pay for the overall experience/ambiance/service, and the quality of food which is reasonable in my opinion.

VERDICT: All in all, I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a romantic date night spot, or a special occasion with loved one(s), or a gathering with friends!

Everything here was delicious. Ambiance is spacious and charming. We had a party of 8, service was great! I don't remember which pastas we ordered but I'm definitely going back. perfect for dates, dinners w friends, or to treat yourself to some freshly made pastas.

This place is an absolute gem. The decor was simple and overall the environment was cozy and relaxed. The food was delicious and the service was amazing as well. They had a large selection of wine which is a huge plus and literally everything on the menu was delicious. Must try if you are a local or in Austin.

We had dinner here for the first time for our 20th Anniversary. It's a nice little place, right off Mopac with "complimentary" valet parking.

There aren't a lot of things on the menu but it's obvious everything is very well thought out. We had a marvelous young server, Aiden. He answered a few questions. My wife had a glass of wine. We ordered two different seafood dishes to share.

We got some very nice, fresh bread with seasoned butter. The first dish was seared scallops. They were cooked perfectly with quite a few different herbs and veggies. We each had 3-1/2 marvelous tasting scallops.

The second dish was a crab pesto pistachio pasta. dish. Two beautiful (and delicious) blue crab claws (with the shell removed and meat exposed). This dish was perfect too. Just the right mix of flavors and they went together perfectly.

We were "convinced" to try a free dessert for our anniversary. They brought out some fabulous vanilla custard with shaved hibiscus ice on top. Again, the flavors mixed perfectly.

All-in-all a terrific experience for a special occasion. The place is nice, very comfortable feeling. Service was great with everyone so attentive but not overly so (which can be more annoying than poor service).

Went here for an impromptu date night on a Saturday. Wasn't sure what to expect but we easily made a reservation a couple hours before. The place is lit up real pretty though I'm not sure if that's always the case or if it's just leftover from the holidays.

We shared a beet salad which was huge and the tagliatelle. The beet salad was nice and light, definitely more fulfilling than I'd expect. Tagliatelle was also good with the full shrimps. With the complimentary bread served, we even had some leftovers. The ricotta and olive oil spread that came with the bread was also really good!

Only awkward thing of the night was that their system was down, so we just got a written receipt. Waitress was really kind about it, just a little unfortunate it took a while to check out.

Everything about olive & june is top notch. Had to sit indoors due to this summer heat, but the ambiance and vibes were on point. Super friendly service and took care of our mom on her bday and made her feel special! We enjoyed the meatballs and strawberry bruschetta for antipasto and shared the Wagyu pappardelle and the capellini with crab for mains. Both were incredible, especially the wagyu on the pappardelle. I know the menu changes from time to time so glad i got to try it!
