About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Just as in Italy where the food is genuine and locally sourced, you'll find the same at Intero with farm-to-table Italian cuisine. At its core, the concept behind Italian cooking stems from necessity and gratitude for regionally available ingredients. Intero, translating to “whole’’ in Italian, embraces this concept utilizing local ingredients from their entirety, paired with traditional Italian techniques and cooking sensibilities. This naturally sustainable approach allows for innovative, yet familiar dishes that highlight the seasonal availability of what’s grown and raised in Texas.

Additionally, Intero provides an authentic nod to the sweet side of Italy offering specialty house-made artisan chocolates (including truffles, barks, and sipping chocolate) along with other traditional Italian desserts in classic, seasonal and unique flavors.

Enjoy various Amari, select wines and craft cocktails indoors or out, set in Intero's modern casual atmosphere.

    The service, food and atmosphere were all incredible! Everyone was very accommodating of a gluten allergy and knowledgeable about the menu. Great vibes and clearly a love for the food that made the whole experience that much better - especially Oli!

    Everything was very fresh and tasty!! They were very generous as we were celebrating our anniversary and made the experience very memorable. The wagyu carpaccio and brown butter cake are must orders! Would definitely come back again for date night.

    Incredible- went with friends for an easy Easter dinner and the service was top notch- timing and pace is a huge pet peeve of mine and they absolutely nailed it! To the point that other guests at my table commented as well. Bravo

    My girlfriend and I went to Intero for our anniversary. All of the staff were welcoming and courteous and we loved the overall ambience. They knew it was a special occasion and added a few meaningful extras to help us celebrate. We loved our drinks - the Fumoso cocktail and the Lenotti Valpolicella wine. We also loved the burrata appetizer/small plate. We were much less pleased with our entrees - the mafaldine bolognese and the grilled redfish. My girlfriend is from Louisiana and felt the redfish was too "fishy" and based on our desire to sample a red sauce dish (since we're at an Italian restaurant), the waiter steered us towards the mafaldine or the arrabiata pizza. We should have gone with the pizza, since the bolognese was not a red sauce - and the beef tasted very "beefy" (a weird complaint, I know - we felt it was gamy). I think Intero makes a lovely impression but I would make other menu selections on a second visit. Speaking honestly, though, given the vibrancy of the Austin restaurant scene, I doubt we'll return.

    We really enjoyed our experience for dinner. I appreciated the clarity given for what was available to eat for my gluten allergy. The dessert was top notch. Definitely will return!

    The entire meal was fantastic. The focaccia with the house-made ricotta was delicious, the charred cabbage was phenomenal and the risotto was excellent. AND........at the end our sever brought us some chocolates to sample with our coffee. I can't say enough superlatives about this place!!

    We absolutely love Intero! The ambiance is warm, cozy, and relaxing, and the food is always delicious, creative, and full of delightful surprises. What truly sets Intero apart, though, is the incredible team. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed like old friends. We especially love sitting at the bar and catching up with Mark, Rachel, and the rest of the crew. Intero is truly a gem—and we’ll miss it so much!

    Every part of the meal, from the apps, to the first course to the entree, was exceptional, innovative and delicious. Definitely one of my most favorites places in Austin.

    One of my favorite places in town. Went for a work dinner and everyone really enjoyed our time there. The timballo and moda famiglia are a must!
