Austin City Guide

Best Restaurants in Austin

Austin may be one of the best cities in the country to visit if you are a dining connoisseur.  From great wines to a wide variety of menu options, the city continually amazes myself and my palette.  Out of the all the dining establishments I’ve had the pleasure of visiting these past few years I was the most impressed by Green Pastures.  Green Pastures began its 60-year tradition of elegant dining rather quietly. But friends told friends, and the word spread. Austin’s neighborhood retreat quickly became known citywide as the place to enjoy sumptuous gourmet dishes, fine wine and true Southern hospitality.

    The Driskill Grill has the best new chef in town. Gelman’s Cuisine reigns supreme. Again!

    Driskill’s Chef Gelman just released his new bar menu. Best new chef in Austin, best restaurant, best bar, best food & drink in Austin.

    Great list! I’ve tried almost all of these. But, I have to say that Green Pastures deserves to be at the top. It has it all… great ambiance, history, outstanding food and service.
