Best Restaurants and Bars in Austin East Side | Eater Austin

"The Mexican restaurant from Eater Award-winning chef Fermín Núñez is still one of the biggest hits of Austin, where its masa-loving menu features tacos, quesadillas, and tamals. The bar program is also strong, with interesting agave offerings and a signature Don Dario cocktail with tequila, tamarind, lime, and sarsaparilla bitters. Definitely stop in for the brunch sometime, and don’t miss ever-rotating pastries. Reservations for the lively interior or outdoor patio are recommended, though there’s a bar for last-minute walk-ins." - Erin Russell
