Yelp reviewer Minh H. from Austin, TX said: “Love this damn place. Great food, price is right and the cocktails are pretty spectacular. Highly, I must say, HIGHLY recommend the chicken liver pate appetizer. Don’t be scared of liver, the way they make it is fantastic. Remember to ask for extra bread!”

3. Troy

8105 Mesa Dr.

Yelp reviewer Tony F. from Austin, TX said: “Can’t wait to come back and try more. Portions were large, flavor was excellent. Highly recommend the Beef Iskender plate!”

4. Moonshine Patio Bar & Grill

303 Red River St.

Anna Z. of Aurora, CO said: “A gem within Austin! If you like brunch buffets and southern foods for a cheap, reasonable price, this is the spot for you! Though the wait can get to over an hour on weekends, you can always put your name down and take a stroll through the neighboring city life to pass the time. My friends and I went to the state capitol and then walked back which only took about 10 minutes.”

5. Ng BMT

8557 Research Blvd.

Andrea T. of Austin, TX said: “Want to find a little piece of Vietnamese sandwich heaven? Well Ng BMT is it! Hands down the best banh mi place you will find in Austin! Other than their odd location inside Hong Kong Supermarket, everything is literally perfect.”
