MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

This counter service fast-casual concept in the Source Hotel may have an approachable, no-frills ambiance, but Chef Bill Espiricueta, an Austin native, is clearly serious about barbecue. From succulent brisket to jalapeño sausage links studded with oozing cheddar cheese, the restaurant's namesake is deployed skillfully, pervading the food with a subtle, savory aroma that doesn't overpower. Typical sides like slaw and mac & cheese are passable, but shouldn't distract from the meaty main event—fried fare like sweet potato tots and French fries might tempt those with truly outsize appetites, and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich has its crowd of devotees.
