Now on the Resy At Home Hit List: DipDipDip Tatsu-ya, Lenoir, Mattie’s, and More

When a combination hot-pot restaurant and ice-cream cone window confront a pandemic, they turn to a third kind of dip — French dip. The menu is brilliantly simple: two sandwiches (beef or pork), two dipping sauces (umami jus or spicy miso), crispy potatoes, pints of ice cream. Honestly, what more do you need? Order here.

Because this typically upscale fine dining restaurant has turned its attention to comfort food since reopening recently — fried chicken, burgers, slaw, mashed potatoes. They also have kid-friendly options and a family-style fried chicken meal Order here.

Because the Holly neighborhood favorite is serving its greatest hits to go, and that’s just what we’re in the mood for.  Of particular interest are the cocktail kits for margaritas and more, chef Laura Sawicki’s desserts, and, of course, the plancha burger. Order here.

Sometimes you just need a fancy picnic. South First Street’s Lenoir is offering several meal options, from spreads and large salads to a full fried-chicken Sunday supper, all built from their globally-inspired seasonal menu. And add a bottle of natural wine, like Séléné’s chardonnay-based Beaujolais Blanc, because why not? Order here.

While they’re offering a pared-down version of their regular Texas-minded Chinese menu, Old Thousand’s pre-order meals are where it’s at. Did someone say dim sum? Their brunch meal offers you a selection of dumplings, bao, and more. (Plus bubbles like Val de Mer’s brut rosé from France.) Order here.

Doesn’t a pub night sound great right now? Hopfields is newly back on the scene with their French menu and (20% off!) beer list, all to go. Nothing new to see here, just the moules frites and Camembert-topped burger you love. Perfection. Order here.

Remember brunch? Mattie’s has it to go, complete with Bloody Mary setups, biscuits with chorizo cream gravy, and fried chicken. All that’s missing is the property’s peacocks, but you can wave at them when you make your curbside pickup. Menus here, and call (512) 444-1888 to order.

On a major pasta kick? Leave the cooking to someone else for once and get takeout from this downtown Italian favorite. Their famous carbonara is on offer, as are a variety of salads and desserts (tiramisu!). And they’re selling their wine list at discount, too— classic Italian selections, naturally. Order here.

Because even if you aren’t spending the first days of summer partying on Rainey Street, you can still eat like you are. Order your Indian favorites à la carte or spring for one of their meals, which comes with samosas, naans, a main course, rice, and chutneys. You can now enjoy it dining in, or order here for pickup.

We were already enjoying their tacos to go, but now their Assembly.Kitchen meal-kit service is going national. That’s right: You can now order bone-marrow taco kits anywhere across the country. And they include a QR code for the restaurant’s playlist, to make you feel like you’re at the restaurant (almost). Order here.
