Olamaie Austin Reviews
I was sadly disappointed at Olamaie last weekend! I have
I was sadly disappointed at Olamaie last weekend! I have been to several Michelin-starred restaurants and all have been amazing except this one. I did enjoy the oysters rockefella but so many of the dishes were heavily over-salted (and I am a salt gi
This used to be my favorite restaurant in Austin.
But I went back for the first time in about 2 years today and was let down. Not only did the price of dinner double, the serving sizes shrunk and so did the options. I understand it's a 4 course experience. But to go from what it was to needing

It's been a while since I've been so writing this review a tad late...I feel like most items that we ordered were just okay....we haven't been back and it doesn't hit the top of our list like some other places...I got to meet Chef

Food was mid, everything was extremely salty, just not a good representation of a Michelin and makes you rethink about what a Michelin rating even means
First, let me start off with the food.
We knew it was a Michelin star restaurant southern style. I really didn't know what to expect because it's a rotating menu. We were very impressed with the food. Every dish was good. Very creative menu. I really don't have anything neg
Amazing dinner! Highly recommended for anyone looking to
Amazing dinner! Highly recommended for anyone looking to have an amazing culinary experience. My sister brought us in for my birthday when we were visiting from California. I've worked in 1&2 star Michelin restaurants and can say that Olamai
Food good.
Few things great. Service bad. Loud. Shouldn't keep star long with subpar service for these prices.
First time eating here.
Read good things about it. I would not eat here again. The food is fine, and the service average. We aren't really sure how this restaurant got Michelin rated. Since getting rated, they have decided to try and maximize their profits by creating
Came on a Monday evening to celebrate my husband's birthday.
Olamaie made it extra special! Service is top notched and the restaurant itself is cute and quaint. I felt like I was enjoying a meal at someone's home. My favorites were the biscuits, beef belly, and the catfish. Quote possibly the best biscu
From the moment we walked up this experience was wonderful!
From the moment we walked up this experience was wonderful! It's in what feels like a cozy house with an elevated homey feel. Parked in the back where there were plenty of spots. We were greeted by a bartender who took time to listen to us about
Delicious dinner
Had a wonderful dinner here. The restaurant is beautiful. The service was good. The food was delicious. We enjoyed it and would recommend.
Gourmet menu with a modern Southern twist in Austin
Having now spent more than 10 years in an old home on the edge of town, Olamaie is firmly ensconced in the Austin gourmet restaurant scene. We sat at the bar which may have robbed us of the ambience of the lovely interior but allowed an entirely new
Exquisite Southern meal at Olamaie
Exquisite Southern meal! Service was exemplary and food amazingly delicious. Their attention to the little details such as cleaning crumbs off the table between courses was a rather nice touch. Every morsel was scrumptious. Do order a few of the butt
a great disappointment all the way around
This place is almost always in everybody's Top 25 ratings in Austin so we decided to try it for our anniversary. Below is a list of the things we found worthy of a Top Austin restaurant and another of the things we found disappointing: 1) The
Exquisite Service Without Pretentiousness
I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. We were looking for a southern menu but got so much more. From the very start we were impressed by the service. We were given drinks on their porch and then escorted to the table when it was read
Great food, and impeccable service
The food and service is fantastic. I had a bar seat and the two people tending the bar were working ever so hard, but also totally in sync. It was impressive to watch. Attention to detail is superb, making it feel like a special experience. My only
Never Again - Service and Hospitality Fail!
Arrived at 5:15 without a reservation and was told that the only seating available was at the bar. After pushing the "host" (Robert?) I was told I could be seated at 5:30 but had to be finished by 7:00 to accommodate another reservation. Wh
Very disappointing.
The wait staff and bartenders were superb. The food was poor. The noise was so loud that it was difficult to hear the other people at my table. This may be that we were seated close to the kitchen but nevertheless the noise prevented conversation.
Eat the biscuits!
I am shocked by all the snarky reviews! We went for dinner to celebrate my son running in the marathon on Sunday and chose to be at the bar which was GREAT. The beverage director (Noah, I think?) was SO engaging and knowledgeable about basically ev
Won't be back
Quirky appetizers and entrees, some good, some not. Chef refused to not pile up my food for proposed order of lamb or duck so I didn't order an entree. I don't like a meat squashed down on the sides. Elevated opinion of himself for food tha
Connect with users posting reservations for Olamaie Austin
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Olamaie Austin. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Olamaie Austin at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Olamaie Austin page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Olamaie Austin to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Olamaie Austin!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
