About Alma
Created and curated by award-winning chef Stephan Pyles.
The first bite of a crisp Southwestern Caesar salad with jalapeno polenta croutons and parmesan chicharron … the savory depth of a cowboy ribeye with red-chile onion rings and pinto-wild mushroom ragout … the decadence of honey-fried chicken with buttermilk biscuits fresh from the oven...
Like nothing else can, food brings us together, shaping our memories and transcending boundaries to feed our lifelong need for discovery and growth.
Join us for a dining experience at Alma and create new memories of your own as you discover something new shared at the table.
Spanish for “soul,” Alma is the heart of The Hacienda at Georgetown, a unique and elevated experience that showcases a culinary journey through the flavors of the Texas Hill Country, in an environment created by the state’s most celebrated chef and restaurateur, Chef Stephan Pyles, a fifth-generation Texan.
He’s the first chef from the Southwest to win a James Beard Award for Best Chef, the first from Texas to be inducted into The Beard Foundation’s Who’s Who of Food and Wine in America, and the founding father of modern Southwestern cuisine. Now, Chef Stephan Pyles is elevating the experience for everyone at The Hacienda at Georgetown.
With a wine list that will guide the way and locally sourced ingredients infused with spices and cooked to perfection, Alma promises dining experiences both unforgettable and soulful. From attention to the smallest details of service to the quality of table settings, here you’ll find an invitation to gather and enjoy good company, good times, and good food.
