Places to eat and must sees in San Antonio and Austin. Going to be spending a few days in each city at the end of this month.

My favorite in San Antonio is Boudro's on the Riverwalk. They can't spell but they can cook.

I'm not sure if you are traveling between or how far you plan to venture. I highly recommend detouring over to Lockhart to sample BBQ from Blacks, Smittys and Kreutz.

Blacks is a must. Tell the meat cutter it is your first time before he starts cutting
re: San Antonio and Austin Trip - RecsPosted by cgrand on 5/8/22 at 11:00 am to Roy Curado
in San Antonio, hot joy and/or feast. Chris Madrid’s for burgers, la fogata for Tex/mex. breakfast tacos anywhere. Definitely get to Lockhart for BBQ

All these other folks got the food covered, so...
Austin Must See's:
- Bats at dusk at Congress Ave Bridge
- Paddling Lady Bird Lake - behind Hyatt on Congress
- Mt Bonnell - high point on river north of town
- Swimming holes - McKinney Falls, Barton Springs
- Reiner's ranch for hike and swimming in Pedernales River
- Lake Travis for the Oasis (just get drinks and appetizers) and state park (they also have a nude beach if you are so inclined)
- Segue tour of downtown
- Austin Brewery and Cidercade are cool
SA:
- Hop on/off bus does a good job of showing sites
- River walk of course
- El Mercado mexican market
- Sky needle - Tower of the Americas
- Six Flags if you want roller coasters
Austin Live Music:
The Continental
C-Boys
The Whitehorse (great honky tonk)
San Antonio Live Music:
The Lonesome Rose (honky tonk)
Cowboys Dancehall (really large honky tonk)
If you like wine, venture out to Fredericksburg, lots of decent wineries on the way

If you want to go to a dance hall or honky tonk, do it right and go to Gruene Hall. Floore's is also an option.

Heck yeah! Thanks to everyone for all the recommendations. Very much appreciated.

Leaving in a few days, just wanted to see if anyone else had any more recs.

Some food and drink places I've enjoyed in Austin:
- Odd Duck
- Emmer & Rye
- Techo Mezcaleria & Agave Bar
- La Holly
- Dai Due
- Juan in a Million (Only time I go is for breakfast)
- Kerlin BBQ (My preference over la Barbecue in East Austin)
- Better Half Coffee & Cocktails
- Cosmic Coffee + Beer Garden (My go-to if I need to vacate a hotel and wait for a flight)
- Austin Beer Garden Brewing (Have been here a couple times before dinner at Odd Duck)
- Spokesman
- Lazarus Brewing (surprisingly, some of the better tacos I've had in Austin)

If you're prepared to drop a few hundred dollars and love sushi, I'd highly recommend Uchi in Austin. You need a reservation a month in advance or need to be there before they open though.
Perry's is probably my favorite steak so far in Austin.
Go checkout the hotel bar at the Driskill also. I love that hotel.

Bakery/breakfast place 1 block from the Alamo is La Panaderia. Variety and surprisingly good food.
re: San Antonio and Austin Trip - RecsPosted by PerplenGold on 5/24/22 at 7:36 pm to LSUsuperfresh
Lonesome Dove is a great steak place for something more Texas inspired.
Don't think I saw anyone recommend ATX Cocina. Fantastic mexican with no tex-mex, more interior style mexican. Happy hour tacos are killer.
