If you find yourself craving for some great Italian, Thai, French, Greek or other worldly cuisine, these 10 restaurants in Austin could be your best bet for undeniably good food.

The Austin Chronicle has listed down their list of most interesting restaurants in Austin that’s worth visiting, in order of popularity.

La Condesa
An award-winning Mexican restaurant headed by Chef Rene Ortiz and pastry chef Laura Sawicki that’s always packed with the lunch and dinner crowd.

Bess Bistro on Pecan
Bess caters to the organic food crowd with European, Cajun and Southern dishes prepared with local homegrown ingredients, partnered with a solid selection of beers, spirits and wine.

Vivo
Vivo has two locations, one on Lake Creek and the original on Manor Road. Both offer affordable San Antonio-style Tex-Mex food, plus there are those great puffy tacos.

Roaring Fork
Their rustic decor perfectly complements their Western entrees and robust side dishes for the consummate meat-eater. Don’t forget to try their smoked and roasted long-bone ribs in Dr. Pepper barbecue sauce.

Aquarelle Restaurant FranÇais
What’s a top restaurant list without French cuisine? Aquarelle fits the bill with their traditional service and luxurious dishes. Their wine selection is superb.

Pad Thai Thai Cuisine
A great place for Thai hot pots, traditional curries and of course, pad thai. They just started their business last year, but have already gained popularity due to their food and excellent service.

Buenos Aires Cafe
Their Argentinian cuisine is a favorite, and they now have two locations: their first in South First Street and moved to East Sixth, and a new one in the new Galleria complex.

Botticelli’s
Reasonably priced Italian food with an enchanted patio space for live music sets Botticelli’s apart from its failed predecessors at their South Congress location.

Annies Cafe & Bar
Annie’s serves great working lunches, relaxing dinners and great-tasting baked goods under the guidance of chef Mark Schmidt.

Justine’s Brasserie
The remodeled bungalow with its cabaret chairs is rarely devoid of patrons, but should you finally get a seat, the French cuisine is worth it.
