Eating healthily and still enjoying yourself?
Yes, it’s now actually possible in the heart of downtown Austin. The Well, Nova Hospitality’s new concept, has opened a new dining room offering a full dinner menu and a “better-for-you” beverage program.
Located in Austin’s Second Street District, The Well features a menu that comes courtesy of the dynamic culinary duo of chef Jon Oh and nutrition consultant Liv Langdon.
Highlights include main dishes like seared sea bass, Texas wagyu steak, and half chicken tagine with tomato sofrito and eggplant. For drinks, guests can expect unique offerings like Majik Matcha (mezcal, Blue Majik spirulina, matcha tea, and raw organic honey) and a keto Old-Fashioned featuring bone broth fat, washed bourbon, and medjool dates.
The Well dining room is open for reservations and walk-ins Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday from 4:30-9 pm, and Friday and Saturday from 4:30-10 pm.
Happy hour runs Tuesday through Friday from 4:30-6 pm and includes half-off deals on all alcoholic beverages and wines by the bottle.
