Local Foods -- 2nd Street District - (Near Austin, TX)

5 /5 Alan Ritchie: Local Foods is forever one of my favorite restaurants and this location did not disappoint. The location was clean and staff was kind. The crunchy chicken sandwich as always was excellent along with the chips and potato salad. Local foods continues to be top tier in fast casual.

4 /5 David Gonos: A friend from out of town said he loved this place, so my wife and I finally got a chance to try it. I got the Gulf Seafood Poboy with Chicken Posole soup. I enjoyed it, but I feel it should be named Seafood Salad Sandwich, as it was essentially chopped shrimp and crab with mayo and other things. Great sub roll tho. When you say “Gulf” with “shrimp” and “poboy,” it gives a different idea of what you’re getting, in my opinion. So my taste buds were expecting something different. The chicken posole soup was top notch, with floating seeds that gave it a great crunchy texture. My wife enjoyed here veggie sandwich also. The service was excellent — very kind and helpful people! For atmosphere, the music was just a little loud at noon on a Monday. I’ll definitely come again, but I’ll try something else.

5 /5 Jessica Hellerew: Prior to an event at the Long Center, we roamed across the river to the 2nd St District in sunny Austin for a bite. My dinner choice of Gummie Bears at the Candy store was overruled...so we hit up Local Foods! The vibe here is great with 2 levels of seating as well as outdoor and to go options. Gal that took our order was efficient, friendly and helpful. The Fall Dinner menu was exceptionally unique...I had the Gulf Seafood PoBoy with Apple/Cranberry salad and red potato salad for sides. The potato salad is now my 2nd favorite, but will never surpass my #1 fave which is my dead Moms specialty--just dont tell her! The PoBoy was not the typical fake crab, small shrimp and an overload of mayo. This was phenomenal. The fresh dill in the potato salad took it up a notch. My other half had a waygu beef sandwich with Mexican flavors. Fantastic as well. Too and we didnt save room for the brown butter miso cookies or carrot cake. Great meal! Now on to see Nick Offerman with a fully satisfied stomach......

5 /5 Kimi Maines MS, RD, CSSD, LD Fit Foodie Dietitian: Local foods is a true gem!!! Its situated in such a fun and quaint part of town! You can fuel up on delicious and good for you food and then explore some fun shops and museums. If youre looking to spend a shorter time dining, this spot is perfect. Its counter service ordering, and the staff swiftly delivers it to your table. They offer comfortable indoor and shaded outdoor seating. Everything we tried was DELICIOUS. But, I highly recommend their signature bubby salad and hangover potatoes. Outside of that, you really cant go wrong with anything here!!

5 /5 Ariana Longoria: Love love love! Their brussel sprouts- every time I come here I order their brussel sprouts, a Diet Coke and sometimes one of their chocolate chip cookies! Definitely recommend coming here at least once.
