    Enjoyed brunch on the patio area. The chef came out to check on the food, which was a nice touch. Will have to try dinner service in the future!

    Excellent service. They were out of the wine we wanted so our server Danielle made a great recommendation in the same price range (plus Sundays are 1/3 off bottles!) Goat cheese beignet.....YUM

    This is a nice place for small plates and amazing wine! Service was warm and attentive. I love the Rubio red, highly recommend.

    Let me provide more color on this. I have here eaten inside before for a wine infused dinner and it was lovely. But on my last visit for happy hour it was a mess. Let's start by the fact I had to go inside and interupt the two employees who were at the bar chatting to get any service (I was the only customer at that time) and I had to do it later to order more food. Then the food, clearly happy hour offerings are not the same as the regular food. The margarita pizza had no cheese or sauce on half of it. Dry terrible pie made frozen crust with nothing on it! The portions were not generous either. The wine was good as usual, but expensive. I dined outside, which is awesome but the space was not clean well organized and did not have heaters. So it is a mixed bag.

    Awesome place with reasonably priced lunch. Not too crowded, which is what we were looking for. $13 carafe of mimosa was very generous. The pizza itself was kind of mediocre, but the burger was possibly one of the best ones I've had within the last year. The meat was absolutely seasoned to perfection! The place really cares about its wine selection, decor cool, and within the mood of their theme too. Definitely would like to go back for dinner!

    The wine selection is excellent, and we really like the flight option for trying new wine. The atmosphere is wonderful, and the food and drinks came out in a timely manner. The only reason I give four out of five is that the staff while very friendly and attentive, don’t have a lot of knowledge of the menu, and probably need to try more wine in order to give good recommendations. Also the appetizers were good, but just not outstanding. Same for the pizza

    My sister and I came in for their Brunch Special this afternoon, and we had a grand time! Their Mimosas' were amazing, the food was intriguing and delicious, and our server/bartender Brandon was awesome. We tried a few appetizers, entrées, and drinks, and had a blast. The service was a little slow, but we were having a carefree afternoon with drinks, good food, cozy atmosphere, and friendly staff, so we didn't mind. 🙂

    Inciting atmosphere and a huge selection of wine. The 🫕 was amazing, and my wife enjoyed the muscles in a white wine sauce.

    This place has a nice ambiance. The butter & bread are good. The cranberry butter is quite sweet. The pumpkin ricotta tortelloni was tasty. The butternut squash bisque was good. The pumpkin pie was delicious.

    Cru is a chain, but hey--if you like wine, they always have a variety of REAL options. This location was empty at 1130am but onside the vibe was grwat--good music--clubbin it a bit but tasteful--Zhu--Savannah was bartendin' and recommended a great Tempranillo--service is excellent here, and everyone is friendly. Everything is decked out for Xmas. Honestly, this is a missed brunch spot because apparently people think of Cru as an evening spot. Patio out front looks inviting enough, though 69 degrees is a little chill 4 me. I really enjoyed ownimg the place for 30 early morning--the blanc de blanc grand cru was actuallybwhat I started with be4 my shift to Spain. This place is worth a visit again!

    I came in not having the best day, and Brittany WOW, just WOW. Her level of customer service is amazing. I had an incredible wine and cheese paring with her recommendation. Thank you for making Austin so special! You are incredible.

    I'm planning on coming back very good service!! I actually had to wine flights it was soooo good. The person that wrote that the Grove is better might work there. I had a pizza and all around the world cheese. All very good. I had a Greek wine and flight it was soooo good I order a red one. I had wondered why I don't see there wine menu they said it changes every two weeks when i asked about a Spanish wine.. all very good!! I'm going again?again!! If you get two flights plan to spend 100 but I also liked that they did t don6 oz poors!!

    Amazing variety of wines, and the food is top notch. You can tell it the management and staff really enjoy working here and put a lot of effort into the quality of everything, which makes for a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this place. Especially if you're going to catch a show at the Moody Theater. This is a must stop.

    Waitress was amazing! Attentive and friendly service. Food was tasty. Had the calamari and wagyu meatballs for appetizers. Charcuterie for my meal. The restaurant atmosphere was very loud.

    Fantastic restaurant! Our waitress was great, really helped me with wine selections. And the wine! Amazing selection, really loved the southern France red, and flights of wine to try different items. The appetizers, just get the charcuterie board and you'll be fine! The margarita pizza was the best I've ever had. If the weather is good don't be afraid to get a table outside. On regret is I was having such a wonderful time I forgot to take pictures. Will be back!

    First, they got our appetizer orders wrong-they gave us the wrong cheese plate and then gave us an appetizer we didnt order. They said they wouldnt charge us for the appetizer we didnt order but they did. We asked for medium steak and it came out completely raw. We asked them to cook it more and it still was really rare when they returned it the 2nd time. The food isn't very good here, none of the dishes were impressive. The wine wasn't that good either.

    Very nice wine bar with a relaxing atmosphere! Our waitress was helpful with deciding food items to order on the menu. It’s a good place to sit/talk and enjoy for the evening!

    Food is a bit pricey but the ingredients are high quality. A good place to visit with friends!

    If you know me, you know that my favorite cut of meat is beef tenderloin. Pair that with pizza and you got a combo that's unbeatable. I came to CRÚ specifically to try their Crú Steak pizza which in addition to the beef also comes with red onion, baby greens, parmesan, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze. I was a fan! The tenderloin was really chewy and contrasted well with the crispy pizza dough and sweetness of the glaze. They have outdoor seating and at night it's a fun atmosphere to be around. The service I received was okay and the pizza, although good, was a bit on the pricier side. In conclusion, I would rate them a 3.5/5, but will round down as there was more to be desired overall.

    Reasonably priced but easy to over do your budget for sure. The charcuterie board and 2 wine flights were good. Pictured are our entrees, Chicken Picatta and 8oz Gilet Mignon.

    Hidden GEM. Seriously. I live upstairs so have walked by many many times and just sort of overlooked the place. But in the last few weeks I've enjoyed both a wine flight (and food) on the patio with a friend, and hosted a private dinner in their private room and BOTH times have been lovely. Food on point. Service ON POINT. Wine flights also on point. The Private Room has MEH decor (the wall flower thing doesn't delight) BUT the privacy, the service staff, the food and wine more than make up for it. Total hidden gem.

    Salads were somewhat disappointing. Grilled cheese/soup was solid, and cheese/fruit trays along with wine flights were also lovely. Great selection of wines obviously. Staff didn't seem knowledgeable about pairings, but if you go knowing what you like you'll definitely be satisfied.
