So Yelp has release a Top 100 Places to Eat in the U.S. list. Their ratings, being based on actual diners, are very different than high-end restaurant critics, and include six places around Austin:
- 8. Franklin Barbecue, Austin, TX
- 35. Turf N’ Surf Po Boy, Austin, TX
- 85. Uchiko, Austin, TX
- 86. Little Deli & Pizzeria, Austin, TX
- 91. Taste of Ethiopia, Pflugerville, TX
- 99. Uchi, Austin, TX
Quick thoughts:
- Yeah, because it just wasn’t hard enough to get Franklin BBQ already.
- Uchiko and Uchi are run by the same people.
- I’m really happy to see Taste of Ethiopia on here. It’s a swell joint run by great people.
By comparison, only one place made the cut in Houston, and none in Dallas…
