There’s no shortage of restaurants to try around Austin, but it’s always nice to have have a go-to. Eater conducted an end-of-year survey of industry experts’ opinions on the 2016 food scene, and found out what their favorite standbys were. Here are some of the winners:

Nadia Chaudhury, editor of Eater Austin said:

“First and foremost, Veracruz All Natural and Radio Coffee, which I will still frequent despite having moved away from the street. Ramen Tatsu-ya for warming bowls of ramen in winter or summer. Odd Duck for dinners with out-of-town friends and family because it’s always consistently great. Qui for the amazing variety of experiences it offers to diners. Home Slice for the closest thing to New York pies in Austin.”
