The Best New Restaurants In Austin: The Austin Hit List

"If you didn’t have tamarind buffalo quail legs on your Downtown food bingo card, first consider getting more involved in niche games of chance. Second, make your way to Y Comida at Bar Ellis, the street-level bar near the Fareground food hall. Y Comida is a temporary restaurant open through the end of 2024, with a menu that blends Texan, Mexican, and Cajun flavors. And since it’s a walk-in, à la carte situation, nothing is stopping you from heading over after work and ordering buffalo quail lollipops along with duck confit tacos, cornmeal fried crab fingers, and mezcal ice cream.  " - nicolai mccrary
