🚨 NEW SPOT 🚨

This spot is sporting 4.8 ⭐️ with over 120 reviews on Google - but not a lot of motion on IG…YET

This is in North Austin off Metric / Parmer Ln 📍

They have all of the (Americanized) “Asian” staples - I know that’s an incredibly broad term - but for the purposes of this post I think folks will know what I’m saying 🫡

The Pho was really stellar and the General Tso Chicken was GIGANTIC portions and great flavor 🤠

Great service, super clean spot, great value 💸

They’re open 11AM to 9PM today - so you don’t have to worry about dinner 🫶 go try em out - and let me know if you’ve already been 👀

Have a great Monday, Austin ❤️

Top 3 NEW Fried Chicken Sandwiches in Austin

Austin’s food scene doesn’t play when it comes to fried chicken sandwiches, and if you’re on the hunt for the crispiest, juiciest, most flavor-packed sandos in the city, these three spots need to be added to your list 💪😎

1. @guppysatx – The Indian-Inspired Must-Try

📍 2908 Fruth St, Unit 101, Austin, TX 78705

Guppy’s is Austin’s first Indian fried chicken sando, and it’s a game-changer. They blend bold Indian spices with crispy, juicy fried chicken for a sandwich that’s comforting, unique, and packed with heat. Think next-level crunch with a spice blend that brings serious depth of flavor.

🔥 Must-try: Any of the sandwiches, ask the owner for a guide through the menu.

2. @danghot89 – Nashville Heat, Texas-Sized Flavor

📍 10001 Metric Blvd, Austin, TX 78758

Nashville hot chicken meets Austin flair at Dang Hot 89, where the crispy-to-juicy ratio is dialed in perfectly. The breading is ultra-crunchy, the chicken is insanely juicy, and the spice hits just right.

🔥 Must-try: The Fried Chicken Sandwich – fried-to-perfection, Texas buns, slaw, Dang Sauce, and pickles, served with fries. It’s that classic hot chicken experience - think T22 but punched up 👀

3. @cockti_jfc_ – The Newcomer That’s Taking Over

📍 East Austin (Food Truck – Check Their IG for Updates)

Cockti JFC may be new to the scene, but they’ve already secured a top spot in Austin’s fried chicken hierarchy.

Their secret ingredient ensures next-level crispiness, while the flavors are familiar yet bold—and spice lovers, you’re in for a treat.

🔥 Must-try: The Cockti Chicken Sando – ridiculously crispy, crazy juicy, and stacked with just the right amount of heat, get it Szechuan.

Bonus: Everything on the menu is $8.99 or less.

🚨 Heads up! They’ve been so popular that they’re upgrading to new equipment to handle the rush, so they’ll be closed until Friday. Trust us—it’s worth the wait.

Where Are You Pulling Up First? 👀

Austin’s fried chicken game is stronger than ever, and these three spots are leading the pack. Tag your fried chicken crew and let us know which one you’re hitting first! 🍗🔥

😈 Austin’s First Indian Fried Chicken 😈

@guppysatx Is Bringing the Heat

If you haven’t tried Guppy’s Fried Chicken yet, consider this your sign. Austin’s only spot for Indian-inspired fried chicken has been quietly making waves, serving up crispy, spicy perfection that’s unlike anything else in town. After 4 months in business—3 of those outside @tweedysbar • the beloved bar on UT’s campus — Guppy’s is cementing itself as a must-try for fried chicken fans looking for bold flavors in Austin

From their perfectly crispy chicken sandwich to their flavor-packed nuggets, every bite is seasoned with regional Indian spices that turn up the heat while keeping it irresistibly craveable.

This is comfort food, reimagined—with crunch, spice, and layers of flavor that will have you wondering how you ever lived without it.

Whether you’re a fan of fried chicken or just curious about what happens when Indian flavors meet Southern-style comfort, Guppy’s is ready to deliver.

Swing by Tweedy’s and grab a bite ( and a @stillatx ) to see what everyone’s talking about.

Who’s ready to taste the crunch? Tag your crew and tell us: sandwich or nuggets? 🤟🤠

🔥 @sushibyscratchrestaurants 🔥

@phillipfranklandlee and his friendly team are back and better than ever 🚨 after a 3 year hiatus in Austin, Texas the team here has returned to the city and set up shop at 603 Brazos 📍

This time with an intimate welcome room where they serve a welcome cocktail & a handful of canapés (that’s a fancy term for some starters) ❤️

After the welcome bites, you’re taken to your seat where you go through a 17 course meal that includes (currently) fun bites like Jellyfish, Pen Shell, and Cuttlefish 👀 and some of the bites you’ve come to love like their Bone Marrow, Eel, and Wagyu 🥵

The meal is finished off with a stellar and perfectly balanced dessert from @margaritakallaslee 🫶 this passion fruit bowl with a really amazing cream that’s both light and fatty with a sweetness from the fruit 😅 wild

Anyway - they’re OFFICIALLY OPEN IN AUSTIN TODAY! Please follow @sushibyscratchrestaurants for more information and to book your next bites 🫡

HAPPY FRIDAY AUSTIN 🥳
