Food and menu were amazing! Such good options for avoiding seed oils, sugar, gluten, etc. I’m very impressed with the kids menu also. The service left a little to be wanting, they left us waiting after seating us and we had to flag someone down every time we wanted something, from water to drinks to ordering the food, to getting the check. Granted we were there in the hours between lunch and dinner so I know all the staff was turning over. Just worth mentioning. But the food was so good I couldn’t remove a star for it ;)

The ambiance was a cool vibe our waitress was awesome and so friendly and the food was just what we needed to start our day! My eggs were perfect and my chai tea was lovely! It’s been a long time that we had such good food and experience around here. It really is a great spot !

My friend and I recently visited The Well, and we were both thoroughly impressed. Their menu offers a great variety of choices, including many healthy options, which made it easy to find something fresh and satisfying. The service was truly outstanding — attentive, friendly, and genuine — and honestly, it couldn’t have been better. The atmosphere, both inside and outside, is absolutely lovely, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed meal. Although I’m not vegan, I decided to try the vegan Caesar salad, and it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. It was so good that I would definitely order it again. We also enjoyed some drinks: the mimosas were excellent — not overly sweet, just perfectly balanced. I did try the espresso martini, which was a bit too sweet for my taste, but still well-made; it just wasn’t my personal preference. The bacon was another highlight — thick, meaty, and cooked exactly the way I like it, served in three perfect pieces. My friend ordered the salmon with avocado on bread, which was beautifully presented and equally delicious. She loved it. Overall, I would highly recommend The Well for a meal with friends or family, or for anyone looking for a lighter, healthier dining option in a beautiful setting. It's a real gem, and we definitely need more places like this!

With a dairy free diet it’s often times difficult to find places to eat out. It was very comforting knowing anything I order was dairy free! We ordered the Cesar salad, Credo Queso, and Thai lettuce wrap. BONUS- if you go between 3pm-5pm they have happy hour specials. Everything was so flavorful and delicious. Will definitely be going back to try other items on the menu. Service was great with the 2 young ladies that worked there with the recommendations they had.

My colleague and I were looking for some Gluten free food and found that The Well Westlake offers an exceptional gluten-free dining experience that combines fresh, nutrient-dense ingredients with innovative flavors. It is a 100% gluten-free kitchen so it is safe for those who have Celiac disease. I had the chicken broth with pasture raised chicken and an Avocado Mousse. The broth was thick, fresh and tasty. The Avocado Mousse was unique in that it had a rich cacao flavor. It was very delicious! If you are looking for a nourishing meal, look no further than The Well Westlake.

My update: LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I typically do takeout, but recently enjoyed brunch with a friend, and the dining experience was wonderful. You place your order at the register and then find a table while they bring out your food for you. The decor strikes a perfect balance between chic and cozy, giving the place a welcoming vibe. I love their commitment to using the highest quality meats and veggies, and it definitely shines through in the flavor of the food. Brunch here was a wonderful--I ordered the EGGS YOUR STYLE, and let me tell you, it was a game-changer. Normally, this dish can be bland and super greasy elsewhere, but here, every bite was bursting with flavor, down to the perfectly seasoned arugula. I felt nourished and light, not weighed down with grease like I usually do at other spots. Not to mention I polished off that entire plate! This restaurant review will get more updates because because I just can't get enough of this place! It's easily become one of my favorites. My Review from 5mo ago: 5 stars across the board I am currently dealing with a couple of health issues and needed to find a place to eat that is highly health-conscious. My husband discovered this restaurant, and I am truly impressed by the quality of the ingredients. Initially, the prices seemed quite high in my opinion. However, after perusing their website and realizing that the ingredients are organic, and the meats are pasture-raised, it all made sense. Typically, I'm someone who appreciates a good deal, but because of the high-quality ingredients used in their food, I am willing to spend a little more here. This time, I tried the chicken salad sandwich, and it was truly indescribable. The flavor was out of this world. There are very few places I eat at where I don't need to ask for hot sauce because the flavor isn't where I need to be. This was the first place in a long time where I didn't need my hot sauce because the flavor was just perfect the way it was served. The decor is beautiful inside, but we did take out. This is my new favorite spot so I will be sure to post updates on the additional items I try.

We were initially going to go somewhere else for lunch but decided to go here in the hopes of getting something light and healthy. The Well did not disappoint. My friend and I each had a mocktail: the Pillow Talk and the non-alcoholic version of The Elixir. The Pillow Talk was so pretty and had great flavor. I don't usually say that about food/drinks with rose, but it's true. The Elixir was fantastic. I was surprised by the dark color, but the flavor was really fresh. We then split the Salmon Tartare and Steak Sandwich. The tartare was very very good. It reminded me of lox with the onion and caper but had a fun Texas twist with jicama and avocado. The chips on the side were perfect for the dish too. The steak sandwich was good too. My only wish was for more of the veggies (arugula and tomato) on the sandwich. We sat at the bar and chatted with a couple of the employees. They were both attentive, friendly, and helpful as we made our choices. Their service alone makes me want to come back for more. Check this place out for a healthy, tasty meal!

We have been loyal supporters of the original downtown location from the start. After a brief hiatus, we returned to Austin and continued to patronize this establishment. The food never fails to impress, always maintaining its high quality and consistency. Alexis stands out with her infectious cheerfulness and exceptional service, adding to our dining experience. It's also a pleasure to encounter the owner, Nicole, during our visits. We highly recommend this location.
