I'll be in Austin for a concert soon. The area i will be in (east) has so much food to choose from, i was hoping for advice on what to avoid. Forget the chains but not dives lol good is all i require. Thank you 🙏

Not sure what to tell you on what to avoid. But, I highly recommend 1618 Asian Fusion on Riverside Dr. They have an assortment of asian cuisine, great drinks, good atmosphere and reasonably priced. Get your reservations early to be sure of getting a table.

This source is pretty good for restaurant info by area of town.

I notice they're currently focusing on SXSW and places to eat, food panels, etc.

Yes, it’s hard to state what to avoid. For some awesome tacos Rositas Al Pastor is what I would recommend. That’s my go to spot when I’m near there.
