Pros: Relaxed, downhome dining room and tender smoked meats Cons: Lifeless side dishes and lame barbecue sauce
Ask a dozen Austinites where the best barbecue in town can be found and you'll probably get a handful of recommendations for Stubbs, or Salt Lick, and probably a smattering of recommendations for Iron Works. At least that was my experience. Salt Like...

Pros: Tex-Mex offers a glimpse of the Mexican food spectrum Cons: Some of the best Mexican food is missing
There's a little-known isogloss I spent some time pinning down a few years back. The linguisitic watershed trends north across west Texas near the towns of Monahans and Pecos, loops north to circumscribe the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and then...
Pros: Best sunset view in Central Texas Cons: Not a choice for the gourmet palate. Long waits.
In Houston, you see, there's no horizon unless you work in one of the skyscrapers downtown. Otherwise, you're relegated to views of blocky buildings, trees and highway superstructures - you seldom get to see anything more than a quarter mile in front of...
Pros: Relaxing and casual atmosphere. Excellent BBQ. Cons: Too much food.
This review is in the travel section, because there is no Austin in the restaurant review selection. This review is not for the Austin travel, but on the Salt Lick (or was it Leak) restaurant. Epinions suggests that if you can’t find your city in the...
Pros: Great and unique food. Courteous and professional service. Cons: I wish I could go back again.
This review is in the travel section, because there is no Austin in the restaurant review selection. This review is not for the Austin travel, but on the Hudson’s on the Band restaurant. Epinions suggests that if you can’t find your city in the...
Pros: Best BBQ in Austin Cons: Most of you aren't in Austin
The small, native-stone building on the corner of Red River and 8th Street in Austin doesn't look like much to the passers-by scurrying down Red River toward downtown. That's because they don't have their windows open to catch a whiff of pecan-smoked...
Pros:BWW is the real meal deal for all occasions... Cons: Certain BWW products are unsuitable for women, children, the elderly, or pets...
New Year's Eve of Y2K was a glorious time. We'd blown off the threats of computers across the country shutting down, leaving panic-stricken mobs in blackouts throughout the land at the stroke of midnight. Equally ignored was the threat of ragheaded ...
Well, you may not believe this, coming from someone who's lived in Austin all their life, but before tonight, I'd never eaten at Threadgills before. That's right (pick your jaw up off the floor), there is such a thing in the world as a native Austinite...
Pros: Sauces and unusual game Cons: Service is not up to par
Unless you are already part of the casually dressed in Ralph Lauren crowd, you will need my advice to fully enjoy your first experience at Hudson’s on the Bend. This unique restaurant carved out its niche by serving up game –- everything...
Pros: The view is spectacular Cons: The food is only so-so, and if the wind is blowing, hold on to your hat
I don't know whether I'm getting older and lazier, or just old and smarter. Whatever the cause, the Easter holiday that used to mean 12 to 14 people for a five-course sit-down dinner now means that Mom, (that would be me...) instead of spending...
Pros: shrimp tacos are awesome Cons: wait can get long on the weekends, queso is hit or miss
Yes there is, and I'm about to tell you all about it. Traditionally, when people think about Mexican food, they think tacos, enchiladas, salsa, and tamales. But this restaurant will introduce you to a side of Mexican food you might not have known even...
Pros: spinach and artichoke dip Cons: it ain't in Colorado
Well, it's nice to be home for the holidays, and I just got back from a nice night of dinner and the movies (hey, what else do you do when the weather's bad?). We went with a few hundred of our closest friends and saw Cast Away (pretty good movie if I...
Pros: pleasant customer service, tasty food, consistent quality, nostalgic Cons: not for diet-conscious consumers
For travelers who like to eat off the beaten path, Top Notch in north Austin offers a little bit of Austin nostalgia with quite a bit of good people, good burgers, shakes, and fried chicken to make it well worth stopping in.
Pros: Location, novelty, price, service Cons: Very casual, limited menu selection
I had a friend visit from out of town today, and as not everyone shares my Epinions obsession I figured it probably would not interest him to watch me write Epinions all day, so we decided to do the tourist thing.
Pros: The Most Heavenly Tasting Ice Cream Cons: Only Located In Austin, Houston,and San Antonio
If you visit this wonderful city you cannot leave without having an ice cream at Amy's. I used to visit Austin weekly and this is my most fond memory of many.
Here are the details.
Amy's opened in 1985 and currently has 8 stores in...
