East Austin, Austin · restaurant
Old Thousand takes a distinctly Austin approach to American Chinese food, rewriting familiar dishes with a little more swagger and a lot more personality. The Brisket Fried Rice folds house-smoked beef and Chinese sausage into the mix, while the Kung Pao Chicken brings enough heat to keep things interesting. Red booths, hip-hop on the speakers, and a playful menu give the whole place the feel of a neighborhood favorite that never takes itself too seriously.
Happy hour runs Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM.
