I've been to local foods twice and both times the food is fresh, the atmosphere is clean with good vibes, and I leave with a happy belly to wrap it up. The first time I came the line for lunch was long and took a little while to get our food about 30mins. This second time I came in we were able to walk right in and order our food! The cashier was friendly and quick. For my vegetarians this place has food that is healthy, vegetables heavy AND DOESN'T lack flavor. Another cool thing about the restaurant is that the menu rotates due to the utilization of local grown foods in the area. read more

I loved this place a long time ago but there are a few things I need to comment on which justifies the change of my opinion. Let me say first that the actual mains are the star of the show. The sandwiches and wraps and whatever actual main you pick WILL BE really good. I haven't had a bad main here since the beginning of coming here. I love all of the sandwiches and will insist that people try all of their versions. The breakfast plates are delicious and they have an extensive menu. However, you cannot completely ignore everything that is supposed to come with it. The sides are very lackluster and sometimes flavorless. The soup can be very watery and off-tasting. The additional sausage ordered during brunch time is not the best. Most of the sides are cold and prepared well in advance to probably ensure a quicker turn around time, but it's pretty obvious. I don't mind cold sides at ALL, but they are nothing to write home about and sometimes skippable altogether. Some of the drinks are pretty bad. This is also probably some of the worst matcha I've had in all of Austin, and that's saying something considering 95% of the ones I've tried in this city is outright bad. It's off, oxidized, extremely watering, flavorless of the matcha flavor but strong on a stagnant rainwater taste. Lucky charms in it just made it worse. The coffee is also poorly made. Stick with bringing your own water. Definitely go for the main sandwiches which are a knock out of the park for me, but don't bother with comboing it. At the very least, service is great! All around nice people, beautiful and airy space, and fast cleanup. read more

I've always been a consistent fan of Local Foods ever since they opened up in downtown and a couple years later, I still come to this establishment whenever I'm craving a healthy, delicious sandwich! My go-to menu item to this day is still their Crunchy Chicken Sandwich, which comes with oven roasted chicken on top of a pretzel bun (which adds a unique and refreshing texture to the sandwich!). What makes the sandwich "crunchy" is the fact that they layer crushed homemade chips into the sandwich, giving you that subtle crunch that you might be craving in a typical fried chicken sandwich. There is plenty of dining space inside if you end up eating here (there's a mini outdoor dining area along with a second floor inside), and they validate parking as well! I'd refer to their website for the two parking garages that they partner with (one is directly attached to the building) because depending on the time of day, you may need to park in one garage over the other if you want the parking validation. read more

This was my spot when I first moved by downtown. Chicken crunch Sando on a pretzel bun is elite. And their pickle spears are so crunchy, not soggy at all. The potato salad side wasn't my fav, I usually just ask for double pickles instead. Vibes are always good in here, ton of windows by each seating area so perfect for doing some remote work and getting a little sunshine or people watching lol. I like that I can just order at the window and camp in a section and refill my own water, etc read more

On 15 Jan 2026, I ate lunch at Local Foods. This restaurant serves local fresh food options as well as a variety of cold teas and mixed juices. I had a scrumptious sandwich and kale salad. The place is different! I picked up on a cafeteria vibe, but then there's a patio and upstairs area with lots of beautiful plants. I sat behind the manager while he was quizzing an employee. Many of the things he said the service reps are supposed to do didn't happen for me during my visit such as offering alternatives and up selling. The person who took my order didn't do either. At any rate, I really liked the farm-to-table concept and the freshness of the food I purchased. read more

My husband and I stopped by for lunch today. I ordered the crunchy chicken sandwich the side of tomato bisque soup. My husband ordered the po-boy sandwich also with the soup. The sandwiches were both cold extremely cold: the vegetables and the meat it was really unappetizing. The shrimp in the only wasn't fried which was atypical for a po-boy. The soup however was probably the highlight of the meal. However for the price of $40 for two mediocre and cold (at that's being kind) sandwiches, I don't think I'll be returning. read more

A cute, local spot in the heart of downtown serving up healthy eats, great sandwiches, bowls, brunch, and more. Order at the counter then find a seat and they'll bring your order out to you. Casual, fast service but a cute spot to dine-in for brunch or lunch. Menu has a ton of variety and can accommodate different dietary needs. A bit pricy but portions are generous and everything is fresh and delicious! For 2 sandwiches with 2 sides each, plus tax and tip, I spent almost $50. Pretty steep, but the sandwiches are loaded and quite tasty. For the sides, I picked the strawberries, pickles, chips, and red potato salad. The best side was the potato salad. The pickles weren't pickled enough for my taste, the chips weren't fresh/as crisp, and the strawberries were a little soggy. Overall, I enjoyed the food despite the higher price tag. I'd revisit if downtown and wanting something fresh. QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Several paid garages or street parking in the area. - Reservations? No, not needed. - To go? Yes, you can order online ahead of time or drop in and order to go. read more

LOVE this local foods. Their soups are so comforting. So many healthy options here. Love the truffle egg salad sandwich with aioli on a pretzel bun (drooling thinking about it rn tbh!). I also appreciate that they can turn their signature sandwiches into salads. I've been here many times - service is always fast and thoughtful. There is a cozy private back area with booths for small parties and an upstairs seating area for larger groups. This time around I tried the Asian chicken salad and it was delicious (especially the unique sweet potatoes noodles!)...also nice that it's open for lunch unlike many other downtown restaurants that open in the evenings. read more

A restaurant worth visiting amid your shopping afternoon on 2nd street! My group came on a Friday night around 6 and were promptly seated. They have 90min to 2 hour validation depending on when you get there which is amazing for downtown! My group walked here, but good to know in the future. I got the Garden Sammie with escabeche and potato salad side. The sammie was delicious--a combination of sour from the ingredients, savory, and crunchy! I am a huge fam of a sour-ish flavor profile, so it was a hit for me. I had never tried a escabeche before, but it is pickled vegetables. This was refreshing! However I think I ordered too much sour foods since my mouth felt a bit numb after eating this and the sammie together. The potato salad was delicious! I love how they incorporated red potatoes with the skin still on it, which added a nice pop of color. It was creamy and a generous portion. Overall a terrific place to go to, especially if you are hoping for a healthier hearty meal. I saw they had a coffee window outside too, which I plan to drop by next. read more

I came out to Local Foods with my sister for lunch a few weekends ago, and was happy to see such a variety of vegetarian and vegan healthy meal options. The weather was not super cold, so we were able to sit out on the patio to enjoy our meals. I had a sore throat that day, so I got some hot hibiscus tea as my beverage to pair with my taco salad, which came with kale (TONS of it), romaine, vegan housemade taco meat, avocado, tomato, kidney bean, pickled onion, jicama, pumpkin seed, grilled corn, El Milagro corn tortilla bowl, and lemon vinaigrette. The salad was HUGE and I definitely left plenty of kale behind, even though the portion I did have was filling! I appreciated the crispy corn tortilla bowl, but it definitely felt like I was eating two separate dishes, as it didn't feel like the vegan taco meat and corn tortilla bowl were really mixed in with all the other salad contents. Nonetheless, I am looking forward to my next visit to try some other items---there seems to be a vegan ramen bowl on the seasonal menu, and I'm looking forward to trying it out! read more

Make way for- dare I say- the best sandwich in Austin!! The crunchy chicken sandwich (and the truffle egg sandwich tbh) is one of the best sandwiches I've ever experienced. The soft pretzel bun plus the perfectly crisp veggies and juicy chicken is the perfect combo. Plus, the restaurant itself is super cute, adorned with playful colors, artworks, and plants. You order at the counter in true deli-style and the food is brought right to your table! A perfect weekend lunch if you're downtown, and the takeout window is perfect if you're grabbing on the go. read more

When it comes to brunch, I admit I am extremely judgemental. 4/5 places that serve brunch simply serve unhealthier versions of uninspired egg dishes that I can easily make at home. With that said, I was a bit skeptical about their simple brunch menu. When our food arrived, I was pleasantly surprised and had to concede, they made every single thing on my plate way better than I have ever made it. The bacon was extra crispy and thick, the eggs were moist (I hate the word but this feels fitting), and the home fries were crispy as home fries should be. Albeit simple, they simply did a phenomenal. Compliments to their chefs (and also their attentive servers)! read more

Great spot in the downtown area with delicious food! Came here on a Saturday for brunch around 11 am. The decor/general environment inside is charming and there's plenty of seating. Would recommend checking out the upper level if you'd like a more private setting! It wasn't too busy yet when we dropped by, so service was pretty quick. Another plus is that Local Foods provides 90 min of validated parking at the City Hall Parking Garage (anytime, any day) OR 2hr validation at the 2nd St AMLI garage (M-F ONLY, 8 am - 5 pm). We parked at the City Hall garage since it was a Saturday. Given that parking is notoriously difficult downtown, this was helpful - just keep the time limit in mind. Lil' Nasty Breakfast Sandwich ($13.50, 5/5) - Very delicious and satisfying! Definitely hit the spot for brunch. - Combination of eggs, crispy bacon, cheddar cheese, roasted poblano & house sambal paired well with the potatoes, which were very flavorful. Overall would definitely come back! Food is reasonably priced, has great flavor, and will certainly fill you up. Worth checking out if you're in the downtown area for brunch! read more

The sandwich was very good, the bun was soft and the chicken was seasoned. The tomato bisque is what knocks it down for me, I'm not sure what that was on top and the taste was extra grainy.

The food was so fresh. I really enjoyed the taco salad, it had a lot of flavor and the portions were nice and large. I'm not vegan and usually am not a huge fan of vegan meat substitutes but their vegan taco meat in the shell was really delicious and impressive. I think the chicken sandwich may have been a bit overhyped on social media and wasn't "life changing" for me, so I may try another one of the sandwiches next time - but it was still good and definitely had a solid amount of chicken. The total for the two dishes came out to $50 I think, (since I added a full serving of chicken to the taco salad) but I'd still go again. read more

Austin Rotisserie is hands down one of my favorite places in the world. I've been eating their food…read moresince they were a tiny little pop-up behind the Infinite Monkey Theorem winery, when it was literally just the two of them, a couple of pop-up tables and the rotisserie. It's been amazing so see how far they have come! The owners, Sophie and Eric are genuinely the kindest and most hard working people I've met. The care and attention to detail they put in does not go unnoticed and is unmatched. The entire menu is incredible and every single dish is worth trying. The Kinda French quesadilla is probably one of the best things I've ever eaten in my entire life and the guacamousse sauce is You can't go wrong with any of the sandwiches either (the Poulet Roti Baguette and the Parisian are my personal faves ) and of course the traditional Rotisserie chicken- don't skip on those potatoes either- they are SO good and really tie everything together. I unfortunately don't live in Austin anymore so I don't get to visit them nearly as often as I'd like to, but I always recommend them to locals and anyone visiting- seriously some of the best food you'll ever have, and always served with so much love and care

Fareground is the name of the food hall. I like to get a soup and side of roasted potatos - they are beyond delicious. The quesadilla with rotisserie chicken is great too, and of course the ham & cheese baguette is a great lunch option. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Since we ordered basically one of everything - here are our recommendations. Appetizers GET THIS: 1. Corn dog shrimp (think shrimp tempura) - light, flavorful, crunchy YUM 2. Cathead biscuits NOT THAT: 1. Street corn queso dip not a favorite for our table. The cheese tasted thick and plastic like... Velveeta vibes... not much flavor Meals GET THIS: 1. Hangar Steak 2. Creole shrimp & grits 3. Chicken fried steak Not that: 1. Horseradish crusted salmon - I didn't try it but the two people who ordered at our table were disappointed and wished they would've gotten one of the above Desserts GET THIS: 1. Bread pudding was delicious! Not overly sweet & the added white chocolate gives it that dazzle dazzle 2. Chocolate Espresso Brownie - perfection NOT THAT: 1. Banana cream pudding. This was a no for the table because it was over the top sweet (I think because of the added butterscotch) 2. Peanut Butter Mousse Pie super super thick & sweet. Didn't taste much other than PB - it was like eating a giant spoonful of it and trying to swallow.

Friendly staff overall. The food fell flat for almost all of us. The salads were fresh and good. However, the ribs were below average. Cornbread was stale and not tasty. Biscuits tasted more like firm bread and not at all flaky/soft. That seemed weird to all of us. Chicken fried steak was soggy and not crispy. Drinks were ok. Not quite sure why the food was subpar, but there were 10 of us who all agreed we wouldn't return for food. There is a swanky little cozy speakeasy in the basement that may be good? We didn't try that.

We bought some burgers from the Mr. Sandwich food truck while on Rainey St. with some friends…read more The burgers were good and tasty. Not sure if all the burgers are always cooked well-done, but that's how ours were made (and was never asked if I wanted otherwise). Also ordered a side of fried plantains that came with a small cup of ketchup. They were harder than I was expecting, and not to salted. Next time I think I'd just order the fries. Waited at the window to order for several minutes while the guy took a phone call, then had a hard time hearing him take my order since he was still on his call and had his mask on (pandemic issues...and maybe this is where he asked how I wanted my burgers cooked?? Who knows, couldn't hear him!). Then it took awhile for the order to come out. By the time I got the food and back to our table, our friends had already purchased and eaten their food from other food trucks, so that was a bummer. Good option if you're in the food truck park. Just be prepared to spend time waiting to order and get your food. Tip: ask if you can have your burger cooked medium or medium rare. If you prefer it that way, of course.

The good: This is a food truck located on the busy party…read morestreet of Rainey. There is outdoor bench-style seating. They were one of the few food trucks in this area that was open during the daytime. The majority of the other options are open later at night when the bar scene is crowded. The bad: The brisket sandwich tasted mostly of just BBQ sauce and the brisket was cut up in small weird chunks. There was melted orange cheese on it that was also unappetizing. We didn't want the caramelized onions so we asked for raw onions but the cashier/cook didn't speak English so the most we could communicate was "no onions." Also, the payment machine was all in Spanish (for selecting tip, signature, etc) so you better brush up on your Spanish if you're paying by credit card! There were cigarette butts on the ground and on the tables and a homeless person hanging out at the benches as well. I ordered fries at first but they were sold out. The interesting: The sandwiches are open-faced.

It's that truly great, midwestern feel…read moresandwich shop that you get before your day on the boat, the kind that keeps you going all day, and keeps you coming back for more! After saying "we need to go there" at least 30 times, we finally went there and boyyy howdy it did not disappoint! The Cuban and club were 10/10 perfect! The bread was so fresh, crispy where it needed to be, and buttery in all the right places. It was a perfectly balanced sandwich ratio, not too thick, not too thin, and came with chips or potato salad. The in-house beer is great, and there's something for anyone's tastes, plus non alcoholic options. We sat outside with our pups on the dog friendly patio, which is fully covered and shaded, with tons of great seating options. I recommend going into the shop and seeing every thing they have to offer that isn't listed on the menu, plus the GREAT beer tap and can selections they have in store!

The parking is shared and gets packed in the evening or you have to pay to park if you are unable to find anything in the lot or on the street. Handsome Dans has a sign directing you to the back where they are located. The vibe is true to a bait shop/diner it's casual with a rustic feel, they have a large covered patio adjacent to Stargazer bar. I highly suggest sitting outside if possible because the inside does get a bit claustrophobic and smokey when it's packed and they are smashing paninis on the press with no proper kitchen overhead vents. The type of greasy smoke you get when you are making super buttery sandwiches on a hot press. The sandwiches are ok but not something I would go out of my way to have ,our kids liked the hotdogs and Frito pies which were also kind of "upper class" gas station quality. Most of the stuff here is food that probably tastes way better after drinking several beers. It's like any normal sandwich you could make at home and toss in a panini press to be honest. Really good beers on tap and friendly staff who seemed to disappear to the back quite a bit and came back confused. They didn't know if they had already given me my food because I was ordering and paying for extra food after more people in our party arrived. They literally saw my food I already had on the table from my previous order and thought they gave me double of what I ordered hahaha. I can't make a judgment because I have no clue what they kept dispersing to the back for but can just say the confusion was real, LOL. All together if I had to come back it be because someone I knew wanted to try it. Otherwise for me it's a one and done. I got the pictures I stood next to a sign ,I had the Signiture sandwiches, now I'm moving on. I can say I've been there done that. I'm guessing that a college crowd or just being a single person who just wants to be amongst people that this is the type of lowkey place to go if you're not into the typical Longhorn hangouts. You stop in ,have some beers, eat a low budget ingredient expensive panini sandwich and chill till you have to call yourself a Waymo cause the beer is good and strong.
