Located in the heart of Austin’s thriving downtown scene, parkside is Austin’s answer to a “gastro pub,” known for its modern and hip appeal, upscale entrées, enticing seafood dishes and raw oysters. The casual venue is ideal for Chef/Owner Shawn Cirkiel’s unpretentious but bold take on New American Cuisine. Bon Appetit magazine crowned parkside one of the “Hot 10 New American Taverns” as a top destination for pub cuisine and the restaurant was also named by Texas Monthly magazine as one of the “Top 10 Best New Texas Restaurants of 2009.”
