There is no shortage of mouth watering food at Austin City Limits. So when you have some down time or need to refuel, head over to one of these spots at ACL this year.
Bananarchy
Bananarchy is more than just chocolate covered bananas — it is a banana heaven. First, frozen bananas are dunked into dreamy sauces, including milk chocolate, peanut butter and vanilla. Then, the bananas are dipped into whatever toppings your heart desires — Oreos, M&Ms, nuts, and more.
Chi’Lantro BBQ
Home of the original Kimchi fries, Chi’Lantro BBQ is serving up some seriously delicious grub this year at ACL. If you haven’t tried their Kimchi fries, now is the time — fries loaded with a magic sauce and caramelized kimchi.
East Side King
The Brussels sprouts salad at ESK is insane. It’s truly the best kind of salad — fried and covered with sauce. Imagine a bowl of crispy fried Brussels sprouts, roughly chopped cabbage, fresh basil, cilantro, mint, onion and jalapeño covered with a sweet and spicy sauce.

Focusing on unique flavor combinations, mmmpanadas is bringing you tasty, portable food this year at ACL. The spicy black bean empanada is a one-of-a-kind spicy mix of black bean, corn, and peppers. Deeee-lish.
Shade Tree Organic Lemonade
Cool off at ACL with an ice cold cup of lemonade. Choose from original and strawberry — perfect for your mixed drink.
Skull & Cakebones
Is it possible to bake a vegan dessert that rivals its non-vegan counterparts? Yes, and Skull & Cakebones has done it. Try any of their vegan desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth or grab one of their ice cream cookie sandwiches filled with local coconut milk ice cream from Nada Moo.
Tamale Addiction
Tamale Addiction offers its homemade tamales for everyone, from meat eaters to vegans. But no matter your food orientation, try the Nopalitos Cactus tamales — think: thin strips of nopales (or cactus) and onions sautéed in olive oil and seasoned with oregano. Seriously, you have to try it.
Way South Philly
Bringing a little Philly to Austin, Way South Philly serves up some seriously good authentic PCS. Stick with the classic Philly Cheesesteak or get a lil’ creative and try one of their not-so-Philly creations.
