It’s hard to beat the classic combo of plump shrimp and rich cornmeal. With a spate of modern Southern restaurants opening across town, it’s a golden era for grits. Check out these seven
renditions.
Jacoby’s Restaurant & Mercantile
At first we weren’t sure about the soupier grits at this new East Austin hot spot, but their smoked
cheddar creaminess won us over. Gotta love the tender shrimp and Cajun butter too.

Austin’s rock star chefs have been busy this year — and you’ll be busy too, eating your way through this list. From Thai to Southern to an actual Thai/Southern mash-up, you’ll be up to your ears in local, straight-from-the-farm, house-cured, fresh baked, hand-crafted goodness. Here they are, the
11 best new restaurants that opened in Austin this year.
Jacoby’s Restaurant & Mercantile
East Cesar Chavez
Owner Adam Jacoby expanded his family’s feed & seed company in Melvin to include Jacoby’s Restaurant and Mercantile, the new and welcome addition to East Austin. With the help of talented
designer Kris Swift, they transformed the building which sits on the Colorado River into a rustic, gorgeous, and inviting space. The meat and veggies are local, as are the beers and spirits. Once you try their chicken-fried steak or pumpkin & goat cheese dumplings, you won't be able to stop thinking about them. Pair those with a "Gin Gin" (bourbon-barrel aged Big Gin, ginger Simple Syrup, fennel bitters).
