Best Lunch Restaurants in East Austin

Belated Anniversary weekend - this was our second time dining at Canje. It was absolutely delicious. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. There was not one bite that did not please the palate. Yum! Yum! Yum!

First time in Austin and first meal in and it was an amazing meal to start to our trip. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Accommodating outside even with not the best weather.

We went on Valentines night, which I’m sure is a challenge for any restaurant, but everything was perfect. Seated us on time, food and service were great. You do have to valet park here (was only $10 before tip) if you don’t try to find your own parking, but even that on such a busy night was really good. This is one of our go to restaurants and often bring our out-of-town family and friends here. 

Had Valentine’s Day dinner here and had a blast! The fire alarm went off which was funny but the employees took care of it quickly. Drinks here were awesome! The food was just good, not great.

Excellent food and atmosphere. It was lively, if not a little loud. We had four items, including the ceviche, brisket tacos, flautas, and sweet potatoes. I would recommend all. They were all super flavorful. The balance of potatoes and duck in the flautas was a little off (too much potato) which made it a little bland, but the mole sauce hit the mark and helped round out the flavor. We would definitely return and try other items.
