Austin’s own MML Hospitality—the team behind institutions like Jeffrey’s, Elizabeth Street Café, and Clark’s Oyster Bar—is our exclusive partner across our four Proper dining concepts. While you’re here, we invite you to Indulge in Israeli & Turkish-inspired cuisine at Peacock Mediterranean Grill; enjoy coastal Mexican fare, ceviches, and sizzling fajitas at poolside La Piscina; sip classic cocktails and spin a record at the living room lounge The Quill Room; or tuck into the elegance of Goldie’s Sunken Bar, our intimate 30-seat lounge exclusively open to Proper guests. 

The Peacock
Mediterranean Grill

Sharing foods and flavors of the Eastern Mediterranean — think North Africa, Greece, Israel, and Lebanon — is the worldly inspiration behind The Peacock. Mezze and wood-grilled fare is colorful and loosely plated, healthy and wholesome. Underneath twinkling rope fixtures hung in various heights, everything is fresh and fragrant — even the natural wines, and light spirits mixed with lots of fresh herbs, fruits and citrus.

La Piscina

Elevated above the city with commanding sunset views, but still connected to it, is our poolside Mexican restaurant and refreshing raw bar. We invite you to sit by the engaging open kitchen and watch tortillas griddling on the open comal. Here, antojitos are made to order, and platters are piled high with fragrant, wood-grilled fare. Serious but not taking itself too seriously, poolside drinks include playful cocktails, frozen margaritas, and a spotlight on native tequilas and mezcals.

Goldie's Cocktail Bar

Imagine a little old-fashioned back room, with whispers of a Turkish bar… Translated through Austin’s cool, laid-back vibe. Its mix of pink marble tables and warm copper is illuminated by the glow of hand-crocheted covers on suspended glass globes. Seating at the actual sunken bar inspires in-depth conversation, while a 16-foot sofa with bolsters beckons guests to linger over boutique wines, supercall sips and garden-fresh cocktails.

The Quill Room

Tucked away on the second floor of the Austin Proper Hotel is The Quill Room, an intimate music lounge with stunning views of the iconic Butterfly Bridge. Designed by Kelly Wearstler, the space is a balance between Southern charm and refined modernism. A menu of elegant, Texas-inspired small bites, creative cocktails and curated, live music performances reflect the city’s vibrant culture.
