The other very underrated option is County Line BBQ right on the Riverwalk. Most don't know how to order there and just order "brisket" expecting the cut you get at the craft BBQ places. Instead, order 2nd cut brisket and the beef ribs (NOT the pork ribs, which are mediocre). Ask for all three varieties of sauce, or they will just bring you their traditional and kind of bland IMO base sauce. The blueberry cobbler if they have it is outstanding, and I like the coleslaw but it is different from what you might expect. The house-made white bread is also very good.

Surprisingly good. Met some out of town family there at their decision. Was afraid it would be terrible like the locations in Austin which are arse in comparison.

If UTSA has a home game, you can go check it out at the Alamodome

The restaurant at the top of the needle rotates and has amazing views, the food is average, but it’s worth it

Someone else suggested Bohannans, they aren’t just good for steaks, in my opinion it’s the best restaurant in the town

Go have a drink at the Esquire Tavern
You won’t regret that, there’s a speakeasy in the basement at the Riverwalk level that’s very very, very eclectic. If that’s the right term you’ll know what I mean if you go visit it.

Of course the Alamo is always something you want to see if you haven’t


If there’s any kind of comedy show or concert at the Majestic, absolutely do it. It’s an incredible venue.

Two Mexican chicks at the same time.

Go to blanco cafe (the one on blanco road) or Chris Madrids, you won’t regret either one

If you go to blanco cafe then get the cheese enchilada plate.

Rosarios isn’t that good, go to La Fonda on main instead

Mi Tierra has never had the best food but it is worth going for the experience alone

Smoke shack and barbecue station both clear pinkertons, they are more long time, and probably half the price.

New braunfels will likely be a mad house this weekend/week due to wurst fest, I would steer clear unless you want to go party it up.
Now there is the stable hall at the Pearl, so you can see live music there instead of having to trek all the way to NB.
Gruene hall is great though!
