The 21 Best Restaurants in Austin

"On the less-wild side of Sixth Street (although the restaurant’s music is loud and vibrant), this East Austin spot lives in a faded brown brick building sandwiched next to a Post Office in a space long-known for housing several different restaurant iterations. It’s modern and breezy (with a lick of traditional), like the cuisine. Tavel Bristol-Joseph, a James Beard Award nominee and chef who’s well known for shining in the Emmer & Rye Team (Hestia, Kalimotxo) steps into new-age Caribbean dishes with flavors that are lacking in Austin. Local, seasonal ingredients will take you from Guyana to Jamaica with sharable plates (pick three to five); homey oxtail beef patties with pineapple pique; ultra-fresh ceviche with crunchy peanuts, sour orange, and sweet peppers; perfectly-sweet fried plantains. The curry wagyu beef with chili oil and the tilefish with mojo and squash will bring in the beach, as well as mouthwatering spicy goodness. Don’t leave without a piece of Black Cake with rhum agricole and raisins for dessert." - Mandy Ellis
