Read about it in the Austin Chronicle!

When The Austin Chronicle’s Best of Austin: Restaurants list was published, the coalition started to wonder, “Who’s best in terms of taste, but also their embrace of reuse, particularly for on-site dining?”

What is a Restaurant Blitz?

Restaurant Blitz is a consumer-led foodware audit for restaurants in Austin, Texas. Restaurant Blitz Austin is conducted using the app PlasticScore to assess the use of single-use plastics during dining or take out experience. After the launch of the first Restaurant Blitz Austin in November 2022, we were able to identify which single-use plastic items are most prominent in Austin as well as identify champions in the food industry totaling over 500 reviews . For this second Restaurant Blitz, we gathered over 5,000 reviews by the end of the 2023 to help us develop a comprehensive representation of restaurants throughout the city of Austin.
