Austin restaurant guide (5th ed)

Fearless Critic restaurant guides offer brutally honest reviews from undercover chefs and food nerds dining incognito and are totally supported by user funding rather than paid advertisements.

The Fearless Critic is utterly unique in its candour, its rigor, its irreverent lack of deference to the sacred cows, and its devotion to finding a city's best food, wherever it may lie.

Each review is a full-page long and includes a food rating out of 10, a feel rating out of 10, and practical information about the restaurant.

The handy reference section lists all restaurants by cuisine, neighbourhood, and special features and offers a specific guide for vegetarians.

Over just entertaining reads, these are essential references for anyone who eats out.

This definitive restaurant guide to Austin is better than ever, including 50 brand-new establishments among the 250 places to eat across Austin, the suburbs, and Texas Hill country. The updated fifth edition offers a wide range of dining stops, from power lunch spots and quirky wine bars to Round Rock Sushi and Lockhart BBQ, and budget-sensitive options that include dozens of little-known bargain finds, such as taco trucks, Korean groceries, and Ethiopian tibs.
