Oseyo, meaning “Please come in” in Korean, draws inspiration directly from Owner Lynn Miller’s mother’s Korean home cooking, with the menu featuring her tried and true recipes, coupled with Executive Chef Mike Diaz’s diverse culinary background.
The menu features small plates, rice and noodle dishes, and wood-grilled items, in addition to Korean extra-small plates, called banchan. With traditional Korean dishes at the forefront of the Oseyo menu, Diaz and the culinary team collaborated with Miller’s mom along with friend Rene Ortiz to develop the restaurant’s recipes. The menu will feature small plates, rice and noodle dishes, and wood-grilled items, in addition to Korean extra-small plates, called banchan, which are side dishes that function much like condiments to offer complementary and contrasting flavors to each bite.
Traditional banchans, like kimchee and soybean sprouts, will be featured alongside chef-inspired seasonal items that are inspired by Korean flavors. Small shareable plates will include pa jeon, savory scallion pancake, and tong dak, spicy-sweet Korean-style fried chicken wings. Wood-grilled items will include Oseyo’s bo ssam, a slow roasted pork belly, to be served with a bright scallion salad, perilla leaves for wrapping, and a soybean-paste dipping sauce. Alongside traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap, kimchi jigae, and wood-grilled Korean BBQ, lesser-known Korean dishes like hwedup bap, a rice bowl with assorted fresh raw fish and seasonal vegetables, and Korean-Chinese noodle dishes will be served. Oseyo also offers a parent friendly setting for families with a kid’s portion-size of every menu item.
The bar menu features a selection of beer and with a focus on local craft beers and wines that pair well with the spicy and flavorful notes of Korean food. Specialty cocktails will feature Korean ingredients. Flavors and ingredients like the lesser known version of miso, called doenjang, which is a more rustic and funky soybean paste; gochujang, Korea’s mainstay chili pepper paste, which is featured in a spicy tequila-based cocktail; and soju, Korea’s national liquor, is elegantly balanced with a Lapsang syrup and lemon in a specialty cocktail.
Oseyo is located at 1628 East Cesar Chavez and will be open for dinner Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesdays from 4pm to 10pm, and Thursday through Saturday from 4pm to 12am. For more information, please visit www.oseyoaustin.com.

New Orleans, LA - On October 22, 2024, I recently had an opportunity to attend the grand opening of Caesars New Orleans, marking the completion of a stunning $435 million transformation of the former Harrah’s New Orleans. It was an evening to remember, filled with excitement, luxury, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. The festivities began on Canal Street with an exhilarating ceremony led by Caesars Entertainment CEO Tom Reeg, President & COO Anthony Carano, and Caesars New Orleans General Manager Samir Mowad. The atmosphere was electric as they joined Caesar himself and an iconic New Orleans second-line band in a lively procession into the casino. It felt like the entire city had come out to celebrate, with Caesars New Orleans team members and Mayor LaToya Cantrell also joining the event to commemorate this historic occasion. Anthony Carano’s pride in introducing Caesars to New Orleans was palpable. “From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it,” he said. The ceremony was a spectacle, kicking off with an iconic Mardi Gras float featuring Caesar and his court, and a dazzling firework show that lit up the New Orleans sky. The second-line band then led us revelers into the resort’s elegant center bar, Octavia, where we indulged in a “Taste of Caesars New Orleans.” Each bite from the six on-property restaurants was a delightful journey, capturing the essence of New Orleans’ rich culinary scene. Throughout the night, elemental entertainers, including the Saints Cheer Krewe, Mardi Gras Indians, Zulu Tramps, and showgirls, created an authentic and unforgettable Big Easy experience. Everywhere I turned, there was something new to marvel at, each performance more mesmerizing than the last. Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, highlighted the significance of the transformation, stating, “This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.” The hotel itself is impressive,…
