Saba Blue Water Cafe

Permanently Closed.. If Mezzaluna was the start of the upscale Warehouse District's restaurant scene then Cedar Street Courtyard was the beginning of its upscale bar scene. Not long behind this popular destination came two upscale restaurant-bars that merged casual drinking with upscale dining creating two of Austin's perennial upscale favorites Saba Blue Water Cafe and Malaga. Saba's "blue water" lighted wall added a glow of tranquility that seems to ease tensions and increase appetites creating a relaxing place to dine. And being in the exact center of what is arguably the most active street in the Ware district, also made it a stylish place for patrons aiming at drinks alone. The result is a bar with an outstanding menu that attracts a well dressed crowd on any given night.
