Culinary & Dining
Ever delicious and always included in your stay.
The food you’ll eat at Miraval Austin celebrates the city’s distinct tastes and textures, featuring fresh ingredients from our very own farm. Our balanced dining options reflect our core pillar of mindfulness—at every meal, in every moment.
Here, eating well is not about denying yourself, but about slowing down and taking the time to enjoy and appreciate food—not just what it tastes like, but where it comes from and how it’s prepared.
Allergies & Dietary Restrictions
If there’s anything we need to know about what you can and cannot eat, please reach out to our Experience Planning team in advance of your stay. Allergies and other restrictions will be noted on your profile so our chefs can take care to accommodate your needs.

Hilltop Crossings Kitchen
Linger inside or luxuriate on the patio at our main restaurant, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Each dish harnesses the skills of our chefs and the knowledge of our Miraval nutritionists, so every choice is a healthy one.
The Nest
This is where you’ll stop to refresh between spa treatments and activities. By day, grab a delicious smoothie, a cookie, or a healthy snack. By night, linger in our lovely lounge, and perhaps indulge in our extensive wine menu and full bar.
Life in Balance Culinary Kitchen
Our state-of-the-art educational culinary facility is home to our signature hands-on culinary workshops, as well as special events and celebrations. Open and experiential, this special space allows you to learn alongside Miraval’s culinary team and understand the right tools and techniques to add flavor and texture to healthy meals. You’ll leave with new interests and insights that you can use in your own kitchen.
