Hungry? A new neighborhood Mediterranean spot has you covered. Called The Peacock, the fresh addition is located at 600 W. Second St. in Downtown.
Located in the Austin Proper Hotel, the menu is inspired by the cuisines of North Africa, Greece, Israel and Lebanon, ranging from short rib hummus to oak grilled octopus to roasted chicken tagine and saffron rice. Got a sweet tooth? Try the sticky toffee date pudding.
With a five-star rating out of seven reviews on Yelp so far, the fresh arrival seems to be a welcome addition to the neighborhood.
Sadia K., who reviewed new spot on Jan. 7, wrote, "The restaurant has cut no corners in bringing out the best of Mediterranean food. .. The short rib hummus was my personal favorite. The short ribs were grilled to be slightly crunchy and added texture to the very creamy hummus. The hummus had a rich chickpea flavor and a dash of citrus, the flavors that take me back to the Middle East."
Pyotr B. added, "The Peacock Mediterranean Grill is is not your typical Mediterranean restaurant. From the decor to the cuisine, the place is filled with surprises, one dish after another!"
The Peacock has yet to share its business hours online.
