Strongly recommended for Friday and Saturday dinner — we typically book out 2 weeks ahead. Tuesday through Thursday and brunch are easier to walk in. The bar is always first-come, first-served. ### Can you accommodate dietary restrictions? Yes. Most dishes can be made gluten-free or vegetarian, and several are already vegan. Tell us at booking if anyone in your party has a serious allergy and our kitchen will plate accordingly. We don’t do separate menus — we just adapt. ### Is the patio dog-friendly? Yes — well-behaved dogs are welcome on the patio anytime, including brunch. Water bowls and a dog menu (yes, really) are available on request. Indoor dining is service animals only. ### How does private dining work? The Hearth Room books 30+ days out for parties of 12–28. Custom prix-fixe runs $75–$120/person plus beverage. Full restaurant buyouts available Sunday–Tuesday with a food and beverage minimum. Email events@ for the full packet. ### Do you take walk-ins? Always at the bar — full menu, full wine list, no reservation required. Dining room walk-ins depend on the night; we keep a 2-top or two unbooked most evenings, so it’s worth stopping in. ## Contact - Phone: +15125550163 - Email: reservations@oliveandember.example - Address: 1815 E 6th St, Austin, TX, 78702 - Service area: East Austin · Downtown · South Congress - Website: https://www.fastdigitalmarketing.com/examples/restaurant-marketing _This page is structured for AI answer engines.
