Rank 2. Isidore
Texas New American
Isidore honors Texas ingredients and indigenous foodways through an ambitious, shareable menu anchored by a live-fire hearth in the Pearl District's midcentury modern setting. The popcorn chicken and dry-aged pork chop showcase the kitchen's confident hand with local sourcing and bold spicing.

Rank 4. Mezquite
Sonoran Mexican
Mezquite pivots toward Sonoran cooking in a sun-faded stall, opening with ceviche before moving to grilled onions and black garlic spread across paper-thin tortillas. Free-range chicken in pipian rojo arrives with a fleet of sides meant for sharing, and the flan closes the meal with custard-soft certainty.

Rank 15. Le Calamar
French
A sleek South Austin bistro wedged into a contemporary building trades French technique for Texan ingredients without apology: seared gnocchi Parisienne arrives drowsy in brown butter; the daily fish wears almond and salsa macha. Concrete floors and exposed ductwork frame leather and shadow, and even the desserts—a baked Texas cake with pecan dacquoise—have one eye on tradition, the other on home.
