El Arbol

You might think that I've tried every great restaurant and every craft beer in Austin. Thankfully I have not. El Arbol proves I can still be pleasantly surprised.

I have not heard a great deal about El Arbol in Austin. They must be the strong and silent type. This place has a unique atmosphere, and offers some unique dishes.

The octopus (pictured to the left) and the scallops really made me happy. Just look at that octo'! It looks crazy -- in the best way possible.

If I handed you a pair of harpoon-shaped chopsticks and replaced the inscription "El Arbol" on the plate with "Nautilus", you'd be dining just like Captain Nemo.

I'm not getting carried away, am I?

Take a look at the rest of my El Arbol photos here.
