    Question What's your favorite restaurant in your city?

    Hello There,

    I am always traveling, and so many new places pop up all the time. I can't ever find anything good on yelp either because people leave such crazy reviews haha! I was just wondering where folks liked to eat? Perhaps I might try something new, somewhere new, when I'm on the road right?

    Peace & Blessings,

    Kelly512

    +1 on Chuy's and Salt Lick

    But if your travels take you to South Austin be sure to check out Valentino's on Manchaca. I'm not sure if their dining room is open yet, so it may still be carry out to the picnic tables, or take away if you prefer.

    But if you want the best brisket and ribs that Austin has to offer, that's the place to go. It may be a bit of a drive, but well worth it.

    Thanks Mark and Nikki for your endorsements. I am heavily biased toward south Austin. I live here, love here, work here, eat here and hobby here. Of course, no offense to those of you that prefer north. You probably hate driving south as much as I hate driving north.

    But I digress.

    I wanted to mention some additional favorites...

    TexMex: Flores, Torchy’s, Matt’s, Trudy’s
    Brunch: Cafe Blue Hill Country Galleria
    Pizza: Pieous
    Thai: Aroi

    I’m getting hungry!

    Kelly, despite your travels, you’re an Austin girl right? What are YOUR favorites?

    For Mexican I love El Mercado or Enchiladas y mas. For Pizza I like the Brick Oven. For dessert I like the Cheesecake Factory. Well, that pretty much sums up my diet:)

    For BBQ - the County Line
    Texmex - Chuy's but really only the Jalapeno ranch - it is like crack
    Burgers - I have heard HopDoddy's is good but haven't tried it yet on my TDL

    Cheers

    Chuys jalapeño ranch is addictive. My favorite dish there is the mexi Cobb salad. Best salad ever!
    Hopdoddys is just ok. Dans much better. Sandy’s also makes an excellent burger.

    Southie here! Well, will be when I move back permanently. P Terry’s is great for fast food burgers. Idk if they have them up north? Then again, I don’t know much about the north side! Lol.

    I freakin love to go hang out at Trudy’s by myself outside. It makes me feel like I’m somewhere tropical. Food and drinks are great!

    Top Notch Burgers on Burnet road is a nice little spot. Two of my favorite BBQ joints is La Barbecue on East Cesar Chavez & 12 Bones BBQ on South Congress.
