New on the dinner menu: red w**e braised boneless short rib, served with mashed potatoes and gremolata.

The gremolata adds a little brightness to a rich, slow-cooked cut. If you’re looking for an Italian restaurant in Austin for a cooler evening, this is a good one to order. Reservations are on OpenTable, link in bio.

We asked Stan what was here before Siena.
His answer: “Just trees.”

That was before March 2000. Now it’s 26 years of Tuscan food in Austin, cooked for the neighborhood.

If you’ve been coming here a while, tell us a Siena memory in the comments.

Chef David’s weekend specials are available Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at Siena, your Italian restaurant in Austin, Texas. Two antipasti and two secondi this time, with the wood oven and wood grill doing a lot of the work.

ANTIPASTI

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup (Zuppa): roasted butternut squash with goat cheese crème fraîche and croutons.

Wood Oven Roasted Beets (Barbabietole Arrosto): gold and red beets from the wood oven with pear, smoked paprika labneh, aged balsamic, extra virgin olive oil, and pistachios.

SECONDI

Wood Grilled Flat Iron Steak (Bistecca di Manzo): flat iron steak off the wood grill over soft white Parmesan polenta, with charred heirloom tomatoes and Italian salsa verde.

Mediterranean Branzino: brown butter seared branzino filet with roasted potatoes, charred broccolini, Kalamata olive relish, and a lemon butter sauce.

We’ve been cooking Tuscan cuisine in Austin since 2000, 26 years now, and the weekend specials rotate, so what you see here won’t be here forever. If you’re looking for authentic Italian in Austin for a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday dinner, this is a good set of plates to plan around.

We open at 4:30 PM. Thursday we’re open until 9:00 PM, and Friday and Saturday until 9:30 PM. Call us to reserve a table.

Earlier in the week, Monday is $26 Dinner for 26 Years with a Sicilian pasta, which is our favorite offering if you’re looking for pasta in Austin. Tuesday is Tuesday at the Bar, Wednesday is W**e Lovers Wednesday with 25% off every bottle, and Thursday is Thirsty Thursday with $10 signature cocktails.

Pro Tip: Ask your server for a w**e to go with the Mediterranean Branzino or the Bistecca di Manzo. The lemon butter sauce on one and the salsa verde on the other point toward different glasses, and your server can walk you through the Italian list.

Squash, pomegranate, mustard, and pancetta. Chef David’s weekend board leans into fall flavors.

Roasted Delicata Squash Panzanella Salad (Panzanella): The Tuscan bread salad with roasted delicata squash, homemade croutons, and pomegranate arils, in a whole grain mustard and maple vinaigrette.

Duck Confit Bruschetta (Bruschetta di Anatra): Duck confit bruschetta with herb garlic Boursin spread, pomegranate arils, basil, and sweet onion jam.

Gnocchi alla Toscana (Fresh Potato Gnocchi, Tuscan Style): Fresh potato gnocchi in a sundried tomato cream sauce with guanciale, baby spinach, and Parmesan.

Stuffed Split Bone Pork Chop (Cotoletta di Maiale Ripiena): Stuffed with prosciutto, spinach, and provolone, with breadcrumbs. It comes with roasted potatoes, a whole grain mustard cream sauce, and sautéed shaved pancetta Brussels sprouts.

Pro tip: Start with the panzanella and finish with the pork chop. Whole grain mustard runs through both, so the salad sets up the main.

Chef David's panzanella swaps the usual tomatoes for roasted delicata squash, and it works.
Roasted Delicata Squash Panzanella Salad (Panzanella): homemade croutons, pomegranate arils, and a whole grain mustard and maple vinaigrette. Panzanella is a Tuscan bread salad, and this is a fall take on it.

Duck Confit Bruschetta (Bruschetta di Anatra): herb garlic Boursin spread, pomegranate arils, basil, and sweet onion jam.

Tuscan-Style Gnocchi (Gnocchi alla Toscana): fresh potato gnocchi in a sundried tomato cream sauce with guanciale, baby spinach, and Parmesan.
Stuffed Split Bone Pork Chop (Cotoletta di Maiale Ripiena): prosciutto, spinach, provolone, and breadcrumbs, with roasted potatoes, a whole grain mustard cream sauce, and sautéed shaved pancetta Brussels sprouts.

Pro tip: If you're with someone, order both antipasti. They share pomegranate, so you get to see how it plays against squash in one dish and duck in the other.

Patio season is a maybe in Texas, so when the weather cooperates, this is where you want to be. Tables, string lights, and a spot outside from 4:30 PM.

Start with something from our new spritz menu, then stay for dinner off our Tuscan menu. It’s easy to find Italian food in Austin, but a spritz on the patio makes the case for Siena pretty well.

Pro tip: Plan your patio night around the w**e. Tuesdays from 4:30 to 6:30 PM, house w**es are $5 and premium w**es are $10 at the bar, cocktail area, and patio. On Wednesdays, every bottle on the list is 25% off all evening. That’s bottles only, not by the glass.
