Best Hidden Gem Restaurants in Austin | Eater Austin

"Joining a proud tradition of exceptional Austin restaurants located in strip malls, Cafe Malta punches above its weight in terms of ambiance and creative European bistro fare. Expect seasonal dishes like fresh salads, coq au vin, and meaty brisket ravioli served with a pesto made of Texas pecans at surprisingly reasonable prices. A few tables are available outside, but the clean, bright space and white tablecloth service inside make for a romantic date night. Place your order to-go if you have other plans." - Erin Russell
