Nomade

Nômadé Cocina is a vibrant, Yucatecan-inspired restaurant nestled in the historic Bouldin Creek neighborhood of South Austin. Founded by wanderers who fell in love with the coastal cuisine of the Yucatán Peninsula, this tropical dining destination transports guests to the lush jungles of Mexico with subtle scents of copal and the distinctive aroma of open-fire grills.

The restaurant has earned impressive accolades, including being named the #4 Best New Restaurant in the South by Yelp, ranking among the Top 15 Restaurants in Austin by Fodors Travel, and winning a 2024 OpenTable Diners' Choice Award.

Nômadé celebrates the diverse culinary influences of the Yucatán, featuring:

1. Fresh seafood from the Mexican Gulf Coast
2. Produce from the farms of Quintana Roo
3. Unique spice blends with Lebanese, Portuguese, and African influences
4. Over 150 agave spirits to explore
5. A completely gluten-free, celiac-safe kitchen

The menu showcases wood-grilled specialties like sustainable Yucatan oak-grilled octopus, fresh oysters with charred habanero mignonette, various crudos and ceviches, and 24-hour short rib with tamarind pasilla and mango habanero. Plant-based options are equally compelling, with the restaurant offering dedicated vegetarian and vegan menus.
