 This hip eatery next door to City Hall attracts throngs of downtown worker bees, politicos and the food cognoscenti looking for real Austin food. And they get it: a variety of sophisticated and down-home barbecue choices, house-made charcuterie, and other modern dishes made with local, sustainable ingredients. We like to start with the nostalgic spicy deviled eggs or the comforting roasted green chile queso. Lunch on the house-smoked jalapeño hot link, the terrific homemade pimiento cheese, or a bountiful salad starring slow-smoked chicken. We recommend the meltingly tender ribs, not your everyday ribs, but natural Black Angus beef short ribs with wild mushrooms and roasted baby onions, and the wood-grilled natural beef porterhouse steak served with red chile cheese enchiladas. At night, mosey upstairs to the bar for live music, local beers, wines and creative cocktails---a destination in and of itself. |
