Ciclo

I’m usually not the biggest fan of hotel restaurants. They capitalize on their convenience factor by providing average food and then gouge you on the price. Ciclo, located on the ground floor of the Four Seasons along the riverbank, is the complete antithesis of that. The food, service, and atmosphere (especially at sunset on the patio) were all excellent. For example, the house-made salad dressing had a unique flavor that gave us a wow moment. Think about that. Something as benign as salad dressing made a great impression. The amuse-bouche was deceptively delicious. It looked like a sunny-side up egg but delivered a sweet, mango flavor. How creative is that!? The servers were engaged and took care of us extremely well. We’ll definitely come back even if we don’t have the convenience of staying at the hotel.

We came for dinner on a Saturday night. Ciclo is located at the bottom floor of the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Austin. It was a lovely evening with delicious food and a calm ambiance. Here was our experience: Parking and accessibility: there are a few parking spots at the hotel; however you can find street parking and parking lots near the restaurant. Menu and seating: I think the only feedback was where we were sitting there wasn’t enough lighting so my partner had a hard time reading the menu (we were by the windows). Perhaps stronger lights or at least a better lighting candle? Anyway, nothing a cell phone flashlight couldn’t solve! Location: the restaurant is down the stairs from the hotel and backs into greenery and the river with a view during the day and at sunset. Food: the food was delightful overall. The burrata salad was out of this world! And the grilled bread that came with the salad was amazing; not too hard and not too chewy. The Parker rolls, oh wow! I loved it! For entrees, my partner thought the filet mignon could have been better, but otherwise was good. I ordered the fish and seafood and it was amazing! I think their specialty here is fish and seafood because it was so delicious! Service: the server was so wonderful! She was patient and pleasant! Overall a beautiful night! Would come here again!

Darly was amazing! She booked our reservations via phone and was also the hostess on for our thanksgiving dinner. She brought our toddler a teddy bear and tons of activities to entertain our toddler. Thank you so much! Parking $15 with validation

I think this is one of the must try places in Austin for sure. We ordered the marg-no-rita and the beekeeper and they were so good, light and refreshing that it was difficult not to order refills. Their sweet corn empanadas, pollo a la mexicana, and grilled chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. Everything was delicious, the fries were perfectly crisp and portion sizes are perfect. Their crème brûlée was sooooo good.

I am extremely disappointed by the way I was treated yesterday afternoon at the Four Seasons Restaurant, Ciclo. As a regular guest there, I expected a much higher level of service. Unfortunately, my experience with your manager, Cora, was far from acceptable. Her behavior made both my mother and I feel uncomfortable, which led me to cancel our reservation and make alternative birthday brunch plans for my mother's special day. Please reach out to me so I can go into further detail on what occurred yesterday afternoon.

This may be the best part of the Austin Four Seasons. The service. The presentation. The ambiance. This is why you go to the four seasons. I have a restrictive diet - their response was please let us meet your needs. This is where is come for care, not just food.
