Austin Chronicle: Asti is one of the best midpriced neighborhood cafes in Austin. Food is consistently delightful, whether it is grilled octopus, a thin-crust pizza, or their ever-popular chocolate cannoli.
Cassie Grissom: Get the Rigatoni and add the grilled whole sausage, amazing!
Capt Spastic: This is easily the best family homestyle Italian restaurant in Austin, possibly in Texas. Tastes exactly like it came out of your Italian grandmother's kitchen. Great food, Great service.
ALEX SNOOKI: If you cant handle REAL Jersey Italian food dont come. If you cant handle how the right coast eats stick to your wussy Olive Garden
Niklas Johansson: Sal's Calzone is excellent. So is the spicy marinara sauce, get it with your breadsticks.
Sabeen: The gelato is a must!! So good.
Alia Kirschner: Be sure to try the foccacia bread with the herb oil... Delicious!
Nolan Martin: The food is great, but.... You may honestly die waiting in line, as people struggle to order. Should you survive, you get to enjoy a romper room experience with kids screaming and crying.
