Restaurateur Stan Adams said he has brought the rustic avors of Tuscany to Lakeway with Trattoria Toscano, an Italian restaurant located in the Oaks at Lakeway center. Opened in September, Trattoria Toscano is the latest in a line of local Italian restaurants from Adams, who opened his rst eatery—downtown Austin pizza spot Brick Oven—in 1982.

Trattoria is a more casual version of Siena, an upscale Northwest Austin restaurant o Loop 360 that Adams also founded more than 15 years ago.“Siena is rigidly traditional to Tuscany,” Adams said. “Trattoria Toscano is a more casual and liberally interpreted version of Tuscany.”
