Description from L'Oca d'Oro's website:
"L’Oca d’Oro is Austin’s Italian-inspired neighborhood restaurant that celebrates family, community, and sustainability.
Located in the Mueller District, we provide our guests with a neighborhood experience through evening menu and tasting options, wine pairings, special events, and private party opportunities.
All of our dishes are prepared with sustainable, locally grown produce and meats-a reflection of a farm-to-table philosophy that extends to our HANDMADE PASTA, cheese, salumi, bread, vinegars and liqueurs. As Austin’s Italian-inspired neighborhood restaurant, we take pride in providing a wholesome experience to help you celebrate life’s best moments.
We care for our team members as family, and pay ONE FAIR WAGE in the belief that lovingly prepared food and authentic hospitality are best nurtured by meeting the basic needs of our entire staff."
