I just recently moved to Austin so I’ve been trying out La new place each week. Trace has by far been my favorite place so far, the staff is absolutely amazing, I looked it up because I wanted to bring my dog somewhere with me, they provided him a bowl and treats. They staff were very attentive. The
It has come down a little over the years in furniture upkeep etc, but it is still one of my favorite places to eat when I am in Austin.
I stayed as a resident guest in the W for a year and ate here frequently.
The food is very clean, and no matter what you order, you leave feeling satisfied, nouri
Quiet and beautiful place. I love that the salmon is healthy too. My whole family enjoyed it here so much! If you want to try a nice healthy meal, I recommend it for sure!
Tried Trace during their happy hour and it was definitely worth it.
The waiter was extremely friendly and prompt.
As far as the food goes, everything was good enough to where we would come back, but I’m not sure some of the stuff is worth the price outside of their happy hour. I’d rate this place
The food was prepared pristinely and plated with love 💛. The pulled Pork tacos 🌮 were beyond amazing! The Arugula Salad 🥗 is a must if your a salad person. The chicken sandwich 🥪 was the crispiest chicken sandwich I’ve ever had, in my entire life! The sandwich came with a side of fries 🍟 that wer
Clean, modern restaurant on the first floor and patio of the W hotel downtown. Wait staff was friendly and attentive, but badly understaffed for Easter Sunday Brunch. Overall it worked out well as they were in no rush to turn tables and had more than enough entertainment in the form of live animals,
Nice ambiance, great service. I had a delicious bowl of acorn squash soup with toasted pepitos, crrspy Brussels sprouts in apple glaze, and a smashed potato with sour cream, chedder cheese and scallions, along with a glass of Chardonnay (a genorous pour) for $45.
Back at the W Austin for 4 days.
Mary Ellen Neely the manager of the Trace Restaurant was amazing! She stepped in to take our order, served us with grace and efficiently! Food was wonderfully prepared by Chef Beto. Definitely a place to frequent!
The food was delicious! We sat outside on the patio and it was nice and secluded. The waiters and waitresses were all very attentive and friendly! I had the lobster grilled cheese and it was amazing. The atmosphere was fun. I will say it’s kind of hard to find parking but that’s anywhere downtown. I
We had dinner on the patio and it was beautiful - Elegantly appointed, charming lighting, and far enough from The sidewalk to feel isolated yet still a part of the street's energy. As for the food, it was excellent! For two people, we split 3 small plates and one large plate. The cold smoke pork c
I recently went to Trace for a Bachelorette weekend dinner and literally can't say enough great things about this place!! The ambiance was intimate, and modern, while still feeling elegant.
The staff was sooooo accommodating to our large group and really went out of their way to make it special.

There were a smattering of people scattered about but the food still takes time. I guess perfection can’t be rushed.
Definitely come for happy hour and you can gorge yourself for very little and room to sprawl out.
The Market Snacks were a bargain at happy hour and very expensive without. It was a n
I’m in Austin traveling with my dog and found this place nearby at the W Hotel. Great outdoor atmosphere and food was tasty. I tried the Migas breakfast and coffee. Plenty of shade, greenery and friendly staff. Would love to come back for drinks/dinner.
I was out in Austin for business and went here with a business partner. The food was amazing. Had a live band which wasn't overpowering so we could still discuss business. Great cocktail options. Decor was awesome and really liked the inside/outside concept. If I'm ever back in Austin, will for sure
I love Trace. This is the restaurant that is inside The W Hotel. They have a wonderful atmosphere and great outdoor dining. I typically only come when they host Drag Brunch which is brunch with a themed drag show typically on random Saturdays. Reservations for Drag Brunch are a must as you will not
Not bad, especially if your taking advantage of your Amex credit. But how can you have a pecan oatmeal and run out of pecans!
