  Interesting restaurant with a typical Austin style snobbishness. The sweet potatoes are great. Not much of a vegetarian choice (surprised) but good vine selection. And when they say blackened fish, they mean it.

  Downtown Austin is a little too congested and parking is such a pain. However this city really has some great dining choices We had a couple of family birthdays this month. Drove by Fixe a few weeks ago and decided to try it yesterday. We elected an early Sunday dinner, which worked out great for the 3 parties that met from different places. Drinks at a comfortable table at the bar were excellent and fun with great service. We moved into our dinner table. It's obvious that great pains have been taken with every aspect of this very warm and welcoming establishment. Although I prefer a more brightly lit atmosphere, this wasn't too dark either. Our waitress, Dorinda, was amazing. Not only did she know everything about all the choices, she was warm, funny and just a pleasure, while not being overbearing. We ordered a bunch of starters and shared everything. Biscuits, steak tartar w/ fried oysters, beef tendon cracklings, pickled beets, smoked trout dip and deviled eggs. Everyone agreed every single item was unusual and exceptionally tasty. For main dishes we also shared fried chicken and the lobster crawfish pot pie. The chicken was incredible too. Boned thigh-meat that somehow tasted like white meat. The sweetish sauce had just enough spice to be perfect. The Pot pie was also just about perfect too. We split the chocolate cake and cobbler desserts around the table as well. All in all, everyone agreed this was one of the most memorable meals we've had in quite some time. We hear that they're opening another restaurant in Ft. Worth. Lucky people up there will get a chance to have what is an unusual but terrific type of cuisine. UPDATE: On a second visit the food and service AGAIN exceeded our expectations! Our marvelous wait person, Angie, showed us that 5-star dining is more than just the food. It's the whole experience! Her attention to detail, pleasant professional demeanor and cheerful attitude contributed a lot to the dinner. The fact that she wasn't TOO friendly, which can sometimes be a little bothersome, was a sign of how great Fixe is. This is a very impressive establishment that is absolutely worth a visit!

  You must try the biscuits! They are so warm and delicious. They are definitely not your ordinary biscuit. They also come with a variety of spreads....must try!!! Oh...but don’t sit on the patio outside. The mosquitoes are insane 😅.

  The food is very good, the service is excellent, and the cocktails are fine. The duck-fat biscuits are to die for though. The menu is fairly seafood heavy and their general style seems to be a classic French take on southern, American food. So, cheese grits, but with roasted quail and BBQ consomme.

  This is the most fabulous establishment in several ways. The food was remarkable, the service couldn't have improved, and despite being a large and open space, the noise level was perfect. We had a wonderful meal on NYE prior to attending an event downtown, and admittedly our dinner at Fixe was an all-around favorite of the night. I highly recommend Fixe for special occasions, business events, or any event that would benefit from a cozy, romantic ambience. Don't rush your time here, though, as the food is worth savoring!
