Found on the second floor of a North Austin professional building, Tare's odd location makes for a curious first impression. There is no signage, but an attendant is stationed out front to welcome diners before each seating. Once inside, the space is attractive with a dark granite counter. Chef Michael Carranza and his small team prepare a kappo-style experience, and the foundation of the meal is an array of embellished nigiri. Fish is sourced from Japan and dry-aged in-house, but tuna from Spain and ocean trout from New Zealand may also make an appearance. There is a creative streak with a Te

Chef Ling Qi Wu owns several restaurants around town, but here at Ling Kitchen, she invites guests to experience something entirely different. There is just one seating per evening at this dinner party-style experience where about 20 guests are invited to join her in the kitchen for a tasting menu of elevated Chinese and Asian cuisine. Before long, the mood is convivial as guests chat over dishes like a trio of dumplings with animal shapes and exquisite fillings such as steamed lobster, turmeric-tinted beef, and crawfish with XO sauce. Pan-seared pork belly is beautifully presented wrapped in

Geoffrey Ellis and Travis Crawford are the brains behind this popular spot in Mueller that is equal parts Texas barbecue and delicatessen. Located in a shared space, it's a classic no-fuss spot with concrete floors and booths made from wooden slats, but you're here for the food, most likely the house-made pastrami sandwich. Brined, then rubbed with black pepper and coriander before being smoked, they take their meat seriously. Piled high on house-made rye sourdough with mustard, it's their signature item for a good reason. Other sandwiches, meat by the pound, a variety of sides like collard gr

Located within the landmark Commodore Perry Estate, Lutie's is a grand space done in a green and gold palette with windows overlooking a stunning patio with gardens and a fountain. Run by the husband-and-wife team of Chef Bradley Nicholson and pastry chef Susana Querejazu, Lutie's offers a seasonally inspired, refined approach to Texas heritage cooking, available à la carte and as a tasting menu. Their estate bread, made with a decades-old starter and fermented corn grits and given a good sear, is even better with their exquisite cultured butter with layers of brown butter. House-smoked trout

Set in a converted bungalow in East Austin, Este sparkles with a cool vibe while highlighting contemporary Mexican cuisine with a seafood focus. Ceviche amarillo with white fish and a piña turmeric broth is a delicious way to kick off the meal. From there, piña preparada with slices of pineapple topped with a piloncillo salsa and dusted with cacao nibs and chile salt is incredibly simple yet highly memorable. Main dishes are largely inspired by the grill, while the fish of the day is wrapped in banana leaf served with hoja santa salsa verde and refried beans. Round out the meal with one of the

该餐厅提供经典意大利菜,食物质量总体评价较高,鸡肉、小牛肉及意面等菜品备受推崇,但部分顾客反映虾类不新鲜或酱汁油腻。服务方面存在两极分化:常客享受周到且温暖的接待,而新客可能遭遇冷淡对待或上菜节奏缓慢。环境被描述为舒适、安静且具老式风格,但也有观点认为装饰简陋、缺乏温馨感。价值感知不一,有人觉得价格合理,有人则认为性价比一般。

Located in Austin's Central Business District, Comedor is a stunner with a carefully curated sense of cool. Inside, traditional and contemporary furnishings are combined with industrial but refined materials (think leather, polished woods, concrete, and glass), and when the weather permits, the courtyard is the place to be. No matter the time, Chef/owner Philip Speer's spot is nearly always packed, and they're here for more than the scene.

Though it's nestled inside the chic, contemporary Fairmont Austin, Garrison has an identity all its own, standing out from the pack with its large open kitchen and live fire cooking. There's plenty of grilling and smoking going on here, but the kitchen's dishes really shine. Start with a balance and bright kanpachi crudo with slightly seared avocado and Espelette pepper or chickpea panisse with lemon aioli and za'atar. A flaky leek tart accompanied by goat cheese and a quenelle of onion and bacon jam is another delicious opener before tucking into the main event—grilled meat like the Akaushi w

This East Austin standby, run by the Avila family since 1962, is no frills but all heart. Slide into one of their built-in booths to enjoy Tex-Mex offerings available by the plate or platter. Not an early riser? Breakfast is offered all day here, and their twice-fried bacon is legendary for its crisp texture, so a bacon and egg taco is always a good idea. Another morning standout is the Migas tacos. Served on their house-made flour tortilla and filled with scrambled eggs mixed with crispy corn tortillas, peppers, and cheese, it's a delicious treat.

Head to East Austin to find this stationary food truck where they only have one thing on their mind—discada. It may be the easiest order you've ever made, and the only decision you'll need to make is how many taquitos you want. As for the food, it's all in the name. Discada is a Northern Mexican style of cooking with different cuts of beef and pork cooked together with aromatic vegetables. Their version also adds bacon, onion, and roasted poblano peppers, all cooked down and served taquito style in single layers of yellow corn tortillas.

Scions of the legendary Black barbecue clan (whose original Lockhart location has spawned multiple outlets), left the fold to forge their own path, naming Terry Black's BBQ in honor of their father. As is expected for central Texas barbeque, beef takes the pride of place: the slow-smoked prime sliced brisket and behemoth bone-in beef ribs are the main events here, but all of their meat offerings, like pork ribs and sausage, demonstrate the team's dedication to their craft. You'll also find respectable sides, like tangy potato salad or fresh green beans. Seating is first-come, first-served, but

This family-style Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurant comes from the same group behind Emmer & Rye. Terrific for groups, it's the kind of place where you want to snack on a little bit of everything. First up, smashed cucumber marinated with amba and set atop luscious labneh is an ideal starter. Beef and lamb kebab on a bed of fire-roasted eggplant and charred onions is even better with dipping sauces like tahini with herbs, schug, and a spicy chili sauce. It's even better with a glass of wine from their keenly organized list. Meanwhile, baklava is a treat enough on its own, but here it's g

France meets Texas at restaurant tucked at the base of a contemporary building in South Austin. It's equal parts mod (concrete floors and exposed ductwork) and moody (dark colors, leather chairs) and has the bistro vibe down pat.

Tucked inside the South Congress Hotel, this festive spot from Chef Michael Fojtasek of Olamaie is always hopping.
