The best Italian restaurant in Austin…

Inspired by the classic farm houses of Tuscany, Siena Ristorante Toscana was envisioned, designed by owner Stan Adams after a visit to the medieval city of Siena.

As soon as you walk through the front door, you feel as if you’ve been transported to Tuscany: the classic limestone and broad wood beam construction is an authentic reproduction of Tuscan countryside architecture.

Executive Chef Harvey Harris not only studied classic Italian cuisine in Piedmont, Italy, but he also worked as a professional chef in Tuscany, where he mastered both the landfood and seafood of this famous region.

Add a world-class wine list — including top Super Tuscans, Napa Valley cult Cabernet, and a generous selection of Texas wines — and you have what many consider to be the best Italian restaurant in Austin.
