Excellent food and drinks and great vibes. Chili verde, greens, Old Fashioned, Blue Collar
Medium spicy fried chicken is delicious, maybe my favorite after Willie Mae's
This American classic meat and three is the gold standard by which all others are judged. Plus, what's not to like about a restaurant where dessert comes first? [Eater 18 Member]
Magic. Come with a group and arrive before 7pm to get seats outside by the stage. Order a couple bottles of wine, some cheese, and small plates to share, and settle in for the night
The Friday lunch is one of the best dining experiences anywhere. Arrive at 11:30 to get a table in the downstairs dining room
Cochon Butcher's Muffaletta is one of the world's great sandwiches and approximately 100x better than Central Grocery's
They produce what has quickly become one of Austin's, if not Texas', most talked-about barbecue. It's so good they regularly run out of meat shortly after opening: get there early. [Eater 38 Member]
John Lewis continues to turn out some of the best barbecue in the city. Their beef ribs are especially fine and massive. Wash down some sausage with live music on the weekends. [Eater 38 Member]
Micklethwait's homemade sausage—varieties like duck and cherry, lamb and apricot, which rotate daily—is what truly distinguishes his operation. Even the beef sausage is moist and snappy.
Excellent. Whole hog plate, fried chicken sandwich, slaw, green beans, chicken bog, hush puppies, vinegar-based sauce, white sauce, banana cream pie
Firecracker shrimp po boy is pretty perfect. If you want to be a pro, go off-menu and order a catfish po boy done firecracker-style
The world's best fried chicken. Also, butter beans and corn bread. Dooky Chase's chicken isn't even in the same universe
