  • “We're spending about $15,000 to $18,000 every single week. It's about 1,000 pounds of fish. One of the biggest challenges running a seafood restaurant in Texas is making sure that you're getting the freshest possible product.” Come behind the scenes for a Friday with executive chef Fermin Núñez at Este-one of Austin's best new Mexican seafood restaurants-the morning they receive their big fish order for the weekend.

    I really like how he shows how he does things and then explains WHY he does them. The why is just as important as the how i feel.

    We are huge fans of Este and his other restaurant Suerte! Chef Fermin is putting upscale Mexican cuisine on the map here in Austin.

    Every single time I have visited Este the food and the service has been amazing! Nothing I have had has been bad, and they have found a way to make a Kale Salad that is beautiful and not bitter. The fish is buttery and soft, drinks are top notch and the desserts are legit (spicy margarita). If you want to make life a little easier, make reservations a couple weeks in advance. 10/10
