Urban

My friends and I were looking for a place in the domain to get some drinks before the Austin fc game yesterday and settled on Urban after I looked online at their bourbon selection and cocktails. It's inside the Westin hotel but parking was close which is nice and uncommon in the domain. The restaurant was closed but we sat at the bar, there were a few other fc fans there too which was cool. Cocktails were $16 and they had some interesting options. My fiance got a pink drink called quarry lake that tasted delicious but we mostly stuck with bourbon. They had Eagle rare, stagg jr, and blantons and most pours are around $15 which is not bad. The main reason I wanted to go there was to try george t stagg. It was only $28 which was incredible...I may have had a few pours lol. Both couples ordered the wagyu meatballs and they were fantastic. Bartenders were both friendly and on top of it so it made for a great first impression, we'll probably be back soon.

We recently stayed at The Westin Austin At The Domain for our daughter's wedding, as did many of the wedding guests. I contacted Mattheu De La Torre in Sales to arrange for a farewell breakfast at the hotel. Matt understood exactly what we needed and put us in touch with Dijana Kapsarev, the Restaurant Manager at Urban. Dijana was amazing! She reached out to us prior to our arrival, and then met with us after we arrived at the hotel to be sure everything would be perfect. She was able to set aside the back half of the restaurant so we would have the best space and privacy to enjoy being with our guests. We treated our guests to the buffet which also included french toast and omelets cooked to order. The food was excellent. In addition, our server Tammy was fantastic! She was able to serve all our guests as they joined us throughout the morning, and offered greetings and super friendly service to all. Dijana went above and beyond by surprising our daughter and son-in-law with a special wedding treat and champagne! We can't express enough how special this morning was and what a perfect send-off it was for all of our out of town guests. Everyone was so helpful and friendly, and the food and service were excellent! We will recommend Urban and the Westin Austin at the Domain to everyone, and definitely will stay and eat here again when we visit.

I had lunch here a couple of times on my visit, but the organization I was with arranged a buffet style lunch for our group. The food was good and they offered quite a variety. Grilled chicken, salmon, with quinoa, and they had a salad buffet with a couple of different choices of greens; spinach and a spring mix. Although we served ourselves, the servers were on point with drink refills and anything else we needed. We also had an evening reception there one night. It was open bar and they had staff walking around with hors d'oeuvres (yes, I have to look up the spelling each time I use this word – I spell it so bad that spell check can’t even guess what I’m trying to write). All in all, the food was good and the staff were very pleasant each time I visited.
