The Most Fun Dinner Spots In Austin Right Now
"Usually when we head to a vegan restaurant, we expect to eat a bunch of dishes that look kind of like a steak but taste more like a brown watermelon or a giant mushroom. But not at Fabrik. This is a plant-based fine dining experience on East MLK that uses ingredients like miso butter, caramelized yeast, and tamari caramel to impart rich and savory elements into dishes, instead of relying on mock meats. Mushroom yakitori outperforms its poultry counterpart, and salt-baked beet tartlets arrive topped with seaweed “caviar” that makes us wonder why expensive, tiny fish eggs ever became so popular. Just know that if you sign up for dinner here, you’re signing up for a five- or seven-course experience (with an optional beverage pairing) so buckle up and enjoy the plant-based ride.
