1) Odd Duck –  I can’t rave more about this spot!! You’ll never get sick of this joint because they’re always switching up their menu… keeping things interesting and most importantly delicious. Odd Duck supports local farmers, "making everything from scratch and working to capture the true craft of cooking in each bite. Odd Duck’s menu is inspired by the Texas seasons, using local ingredients that showcase the loyal relationships between the chefs and the farmers that have been built throughout the years.” Odd Duck you have my heart forever!

2) Red Ash - ATTENTION ITALIAN lovers look no further Red Ash is here!!!  “Chef Carver’s menu features fresh handmade pastas, pristine seafood, locally sourced prime meats roasted on the wood-burning grill and plancha and an abundance of seasonal fresh vegetables.” It’s the next best thing to being in Italy!! This is their mouthwatering handmade potato Gnocchi Gratinata with gorgonzola Montagna, fresh cream, smoked prosciutto & chives. Molto Bene aka VERY good!!!

3) Wu chow-  Holy soup dumplings! These little gems are heaven in your mouth... and no I’m not exaggerating, I could live off these. Wu Chow brings authentic, farm-fresh, modern Chinese food to the heart of downtown Austin.  They offer dishes representative of all eight styles of Chinese cuisine, as well as dim sum service on Sundays. Everything on the menu is absolutely amazing, but the dumplings are a must!!!  Introducing the one of a kind Shanghai Soup Dumplings: pork shoulder, ginger, garlic, scallions, concentrated pork broth, dipping sauce 10.... Not to mention they also have fun, festive drinks to match their personality!

4) Lucy’s fried chicken- This is a feel good, casual restaurant that has the best fried chicken in town!! There are 4 locations in Austin. I recommend the one on the lake at 2900 RANCH RD 620 NMAPAUSTIN TX 78734, which has a spectacular view. Get the bucket of chicken if you're with a group of 4 or more! It’s a great deal and a lot of food.  The mac n cheese, corn, and mashed potatoes are tasty side dishes as well.

5) Buenos Aires – is a top of the line Argentinian restaurant. They “are committed to serving the highest quality food, prepared with love and care from the hands that make it.” Start off with some cheesy goodness, ordering provoleta as an appetizer. FYI they have a pretty cool speakeasy downstairs called the Milonga Room so grab some dinner upstairs and head downstairs for some creative cocktails at their speakeasy! TEXT 512.593.1920 to make a reservation in advance!!

6) Lichas– this restaurant is on the east side of town where all the cool kids hang! Their happy house is killer. Their portions are of good size and you can be fully satisfied for $5 dollars…. That’s right a whopping $5 dollars for authentic, tasty Mexican food!  They also have a large patio in the back which is great for a group gathering. Lichas offers a fun atmosphere and great food at an amazing price.... what more could you ask for?!
