The 25 Best Restaurants In Austin 2024
"This is the best Chinese food in Austin. Not just the best value or the place with the best portion sizes—but it’s certainly strong in those fields, too. It’s at its best with Sichuan classics, but even if you’re not in the mood for chongqing chicken or mapo tofu, you can get good renditions of Chinese-American classics as well. Sometimes we’re here when the Tuesday night craving for spicy eggplant in garlic sauce hits. Other times it’s for a last-minute date night—the type where the atmosphere takes a bit of a back seat to a meal you’ll be talking about on the drive home. Because you’re not here for the bare-bones dining room in a North Austin strip mall. You’re just here for great food. And maybe an extra order of spicy garlic eggplant.
