L'Oca d'Oro is a charming Italian eatery in Austin that crafts fresh pasta and inventive dishes, all served in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.
"This Mueller restaurant offers sustainable, locally sourced dishes like super-fresh mozzarella, sourdough focaccia, and an ever-rotating menu of pastas with both classic options (rigatoni all’amatriciana) and creative takes (reginette with smoked brisket). If lasagna is on the menu, get it. Solo diners can park at the small bar with wine or a cocktail, friends can enjoy the Mueller bustle on the patio, and there’s room for even large parties in the dining room." - Erin Russell

There are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Lane Gillespie
