Fodor's Expert Review Jacoby's Restaurant & Mercantile
The “ranch to table” cuisine of this new east side hotspot speaks to Austinite’s southern comfort cravings, with savory classics like stuffed Salisbury steak, pickled fried green tomatoes, and shrimp and grits. The interiors, boasting natural hardwoods and salvaged materials from the Jacoby family ranch, provide an ideally casual place to kick back and relax with cocktails like mescal margaritas and West Texas shandys and the scenic back patio overlooks the Colorado River. The Central Texas Jacoby brand beef is featured in the house burger and chicken fried steak, but seasonal entrees like Cornish hen and pumpkin and goat cheese dumplings, are also signatures. Sides like mac and cheese, braised greens, and acorn squash are served family style.
