For tonight. Taking my mom for her birthday to HOB to see Radney Foster tonight. Going with her, my aunt, and fiance. Need good recommendation for someplace that won't break my wallet. We were thinking maybe the Hearsay Gastro Pub downtown, heard it is supposed to be pretty good.

Been to Crapitto's yet? Pretty good food and weather is perfect to sit on the patio.

Damian's on Smith or for a less expensive Italian - Vincent's on Dallas is pretty good.

Marco Wiles place on lower westheimer dolce vita is supposed to be great. His other place Da Marcos ($$$) is money.

Thanks offshore...this is what we did, great food, good wine, and patio was nice. I'm not sure what business is across the street but there were about 3 OT 10's that walked across to come over for dinner. I was having a hard time not staring.

Since you are such the expert and can't normally help yourself, does this mean what I think it does in Messican?

We did...my fiance wasn't able to go, and was ticked that she didn't get to go...she has been wanting to.

The show was awesome! Opener was George Ducas..never heard of him, but man he was good. Radney Foster put on a hell of a show...been a big fan for awhile, but first time seeing him.

Nino's on W. Dallas is very good, and close to downtown. For something a little less expensive but good, Spaghetti Westerns on Shepherd/Durham (I never remember which one goes east or west). On the west side, Collina's is pretty good. Between Campbell and Voss on I-10. Further west, Ciro's between Bunker Hill and Gessner on the S. Side of I-10.

ETA: Ooops...day late and a dollar short.
