The Most Fun Dinner Spots In Austin Right Now - Austin - The Infatuation
"Part Japanese izakaya and part Central Texas smokehouse, Kemuri Tatsu-Ya is a place where you can get chili cheese takoyaki, smoked eel bento boxes, and yakitori skewers under one roof. And it all happens in a dining room that looks like a Texas hunting lodge that picked up its decor from a vintage store in Tokyo (there are also lots of robots). Japanese-inspired tiki drinks keep the energy going when you start to slow down after a second serving of taiyaki cornbread with sesame butter, and if you need even more energy, head into the bathroom for a simulated thunderstorm over the lights and speakers while you wash your hands. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
