East Side King

This long-anticipated branch of East Side King opened its doors on December 26. The mini-chain's first independent outlet is serving up their take on tacos as well as ESK "classics."

ESK's second brick-and-mortar offers beer and wine on tap and favorite dishes such as Thai Chicken Karaage , Poor Qui's Buns , and beet fries , as well as adventurous tacos , like moshi and octopus .

The wings are marinated in coconut milk and lemongrass , deep-fried, glazed in homemade tare—a Japanese barbecue sauce made with chicken feet , grilled citrus , garlic , and yakisoba . Read more

Paul Quis 2nd restaurant serves mexican-asian fusion dishes with a lot of aroma. I totally fell in love with a spicy brussel sprouts salad . You better come early to avoid waiting time

Decent asian food . The Brussels salad was good. Ok pork bun and chicken Karage . Hangin in the back at Irie for beers and tunes is what makes it s big win

The ebi ebi taco was great. The shrimp were perfect! Although we waited for 20 mins for our food and it wasn't that crowded .

The food is delicious as it's always been, but the price hikes make it hard to stomach ????

#sxsw visitors, this place is hella local, hella fresh, and hella good. Try the fired beets . Sounds weird but great!

Moto bento box is the best lunch I've had in recent memory, and a solid deal as well

Awesome Brussels sprouts and spicy chicken taco . Must come back tomorrow to try the octopus .

Never disappoints. Definitely get the pork belly buns and chicken karaage .

Poor Qui buns are where it's at, but everything is good. Also: cheap local draft beer during happy hour .

I'm bereft to find no Octopus Taco on the menu now. Dang!

Fried kimchi . Pork belly . Fresh everything. Austin beer on tap

After having Chicken Karaage at other restaurants , I realize nobody does it like ESK, which is a shame, because it's the best.

Get the bento box so you can try the best things on the menu!

The chicken karaage and beet fries are full of win.

Good for lunch or late night - ramen shop belonging to the dude who won Top Chef

Pretty good! Excited it's so close to work!! The Brussels sprouts salad was awesome.

Brussels sprouts and Thai chicken kara-age is the way to go

Came here for tacos yesterday and had to come back for more!!! Spicy chicken is amazing!

$23 for 3 tacos and no regrets!

Bento Box , Thai Chicken , Liberty Rice ????????????

Liberty Rice with the Brussels Sprout salad -- go-to meal when I've got too much to do to be weighed down by bad drive-thru.

expensive asian food made by non Asians with great soda choices.

The octopus taco is awesome.

Love the food here!! This place is a must!!

Add a fried bun to your order!

I'm so in love with veggie meshi and beet fries

Everything! Eat it all.

This place was kinda disappointing. Long wait (it's not busy), overpriced, under portioned, though trendy . $1 for a little extra mayo !? Higher quality food elsewhere; leaving this to the hipsters .

Brussels sprouts . Beets . Eat them.

You got some tasty treats up in there guys. Keep Feeding me.

Portions are small and the food took a long time to come out. Very tasty though.

Go for the Veggie meshi

Amazing fried chicken

Will check it out soon...Heard great things about this place

Sunday Funday = $2 sake and $3 beer

Poor qui's buns are delicious

Tori meshi with kewpie mayo

Hammocks !!

Don't go right at dinner time.. So crowded , very loud . Small place. Loud !!

Ebi Ebi yo!

Been waiting 45 minutes for our food. I hope it's as good as we hear.

no peanut curry buns here :(

Very disappointed. Chicken at Liberty bar location was amazing... And this is terrible. Bland and dry
