Quince Lakehouse is a full-service restaurant set along Lake Austin, offering a dining experience that blends sophisticated flavors with a relaxed waterfront setting. The atmosphere leans upscale yet approachable, making it a favored spot for date nights, casual celebrations, or simply unwinding after a day on the lake.

We got here before our reservations time and had to wait for like 4 minutes to be seated which was not bad at all. This place is so nice and has a good energy!!! It’ll be a great spot for a date night. We sat in the patio and enjoyed the lake view. Food was absolutely top notch!!!! We got Shrimp Tempura in spicy aiol and Ahi Tuna Tosatadas as appetizer which both are PERFECT!!! As main dish, we got burger and pan seared Halibut and again both were amazing!! The fries that came with the burger did not disappoint at all! My only concern is that we got two appetizers and two main dishes and didn’t fill like we’re totally full (stuffed). So if you’re looking to go somewhere that you get bigger portions and maybe you feel stuffed afterwards that might not be your best choice! Their menu selection was small which shows their quality and the perfect taste that you’re about to experience!!! Would definitely come back here for special occasions since it was kinda pricey!!! Also they only had All Gender Bathroom and that was not fun. I did not feel comfortable washing my hands next two big dudes in the bathroom!

If you haven’t been to Quince Lakehouse, go now, it’s that good. Gorgeous lake views, lively crowd, and excellent food. All the dishes (7) we ordered were good but these 3 stood out: The tuna tostada was pure sunshine on a plate, fresh, citrusy, and perfectly crisp; the grilled octopus was tender and packed with flavor, and the melon & arugula salad tasted like summer in every bite. We wrapped it up with their cobbler and tiramisu, which were the perfect sweet finish. For service, the whole team was fantastic, but Ela was stellar — she made our night!

Thank you Carlitos$$. You really made our night, we could see John was doing a great job but had several busy busy tables. We're easy, so thanks for jumping in. Love the vibe here, fun but upscale. The ragu was delicious, the tortilla soup was perfect after a chilly boat ride around Lake Austin.

Food was amazing! Loved the Rock Shrimp Tempura. Service was great and of course it's right on the lake which is always a plus! We had such a nice server (I think his name was Khalid?) and the manager even came out and brought us dessert. Such a great sisters night out!

The food here is amazing. My first impression of course was how stunning the restaurant was but I wasn’t expecting the food to be beyond amazing! The truffle risotto is to die for. With perfect crispy kale on top, the risotto has perfect consistency, heaviness and the right hint of truffle. The Nola eggs Benedict - I’ve never had anything like it. There is some sauce that makes it so good and the rosemary fries… don’t get me started. The grilled chicken sandwich was also SO GOOD. the mushroom and kale is seasoned to perfection. I’ve never enjoyed a chicken sandwich more. I highly recommend.
