Via 313 has really good pizza.


Detroit style FTR. Really good shite. They have a couple different locations, but the food truck at craft pride on Rainey is awesome. Tons of great beer there and the back yard is fun with live music too.


Went there Saturday night...never heard of Detroit Style Pizza but it was fuggin awesome.

The one on 6th and Chicon St. Got Cheesebread, The Detroiter and The Omnivore. Been dreaming of it since. The crust is just top notch

Stiles Switch for BBQ. Some say as good as Franklin's without the wait/camping out.

Definitely. It's sister restaurant next door, Enoteca is also very good. It's more casual and sometimes easier to get a table.

Radio Coffee and Beer is a great place to hang out and chill.

Best breakfast taco ever is at Valentina’s, get the Real Deal Holyfield.

Homeslice is good pizza on South Congress. Via 313 is better and if you like Detroit style you have to try it! They have a few locations throughout town.

Since it won't be too hot, sit outside and eat at Patrizi's. It's a food truck putting out some wonderful pasta dishes.

Bangers and Easy Tiger are both good for sausages.

For BBQ, hit up one of Terry Black's, Stiles Switch, LA BBQ, or Kerlin. Franklin's lines are insane and I didn't think Micklethwait was anything special.

An underrated star is The Peached Tortilla. It's Asian fusion food with a southern twist and it's delicious.

If you like sushi - Kome, Uchi, and Uchiko are all fantastic. Kome is much more casual than the other two.

There is also a high-end food hall on the other side of the South Congress bridge, just as you enter downtown. Fareground has booths from many of Austin's best restauranteurs including Kome, Contigo, and Dai Due.

Most of the suggestions in this thread are spot on so you're in good hands. Definitely grab some tacos while you're in town too!

This past summer Via 313 had a Terry blacks brisket pizza that was unbelievable. Micklethwait bbq truck is good with zero wait time.
