Looking for authentic Italian food that has been made with passion and then served with class? I have something special to recommend to you for this week-ends eating out experience! Look no further than the heart of downtown Austin on E. 2nd St for one of the newest Italian restaurants in town.
OSTERIA PRONTO http://www.osteriaprontoaustin.com/
At Osteria Pronto, they pride themselves on creating an Italian experience you will remember when you dine there. Chef Gilberto Ramirez and his talented culinary team create dishes you will crave that use fresh ingredients and traditional recipes. Chef Ramirez has a wealth of knowledge in Mediterranean and Italian food. By using the finest ingredients combined with his extensive knowledge, the dishes he creates are some of the finest Italian cuisine in Austin. The décor is modern with an inviting atmosphere and the wood finishes & soft lighting create the kind of ambiance you want when dining out.
Start the evening with some Gulf Shrimp that have been chili marinated with fried garlic and green onions. Follow that with a bowl of Tuscan soup with Italian sausage, white beans, carrots and tomatoes. For your entrée, try Veal Picatta with toasted faro, spinach puree and picatta sauce or maybe you’d like the Wagyu NY Strip – a 14oz. TX Wagyu strip with potato terrina, kale and roasted baby carrots. One of the specials at Osteria Pronto is their Pollo Al Mattone – chicken that has been marinated with chili & sage accompanied by potatoes, mushrooms, kale and Thumbelina carrots and served with herb jus. Desserts will have you trying to decide what sounds best…there’s the Caramelized Lemon Tart with lemon curd, vanilla crust and whipped crème fraiche. Or how about a slice of Hazelnut Chocolate Crepe “Cake” with nutella, raspberries, candied grapefruit and hazelnut tuile?
Stop in this weekend and see why Osteria Pronto is among the best Austin has to offer.
