Everything—from the bacon to the bread to the pickles to the aioli—is made from scratch (save the potato chips but the chef does add his own custom seasonings to them).
Nice twists on homey brunch dishes like their artisan sausages and bacon-infused whiskey drinks. You can also grab a quick biscuit sandwich and Intelligentsia coffee to-go.

Not what I expected, its kind of an up market fast food Indian restaurant. That aside the vegetable somosas were excellent, loved the mint sauce they came with. Chicken vinderloo was good too
An exemplary burger lineup in the $5 to $9 range. This outpost can’t shake the strip-mall vibe, but location doesn’t make the matchstick fries any less delicious. The chili cheese sauce is addictive.
Excellent Thai option in Austin. Very big menu. Nice decor. The house special curries are excellent. They allow separate checks now (didn't used to) so I'll be back for lunch!
Made famous in the movie, Dazed and Confused, this drive in burger joint is as local as it gets. The grill is so seasoned with age that you probably could make anything cooked on taste amazing.

Damn hot OG sandwich was amazing! Beautifully breaded & crispy, just he right amount of hot, and the slaw & pickles added a great tang & crunch. Will be back as soon as possible.
Nice (but expensive) Soup Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao). Expect a line - so show up early (or show up late) and be ready to wait.

Nice outdoor area that could definitely use a few more tables. Tasty cocktails and yummy breakfast food. A little loud inside, but still has a cool vibe.
The shrimp bowl was incredible!With bits of crispy rice, fresh radishes, and the most delicious sauce - it hits all the right notes. And the people are so nice. Also loved the beet soda.
