Breakfast
There's a bit of a line, but it's worth it!
Bird Bird Biscuit
Chinese
This is the best AYCE anything in Austin. The meat is fresh and they have so many options to choose from at the buffet bar. The only downside is how popular they are. There's usually always a long wait for dinner.

If you love peking duck, this is the place to go! They are usually pretty packed during weekend lunch, but if you come a bit later around 1-2pm, there shouldn't be a wait. Most of their dishes have large portions, and you can't beat the tenderness an...

Whether to caffinate or to get a little sweet treat, I have the recommendations for you!
Jo's Coffee is a must in Austin, but I particularly like this location due to how cute the inside is! It's also a great place to work/study if needed with plenty of seating.

ChiCha San Chen
Perfect for when you're walking around Downtown and need a little pick me up.
