Food scene

Absolutely love De Nada Cantina! Super fun spot in a restored green house with authentic Mexican decor, beautiful candles and a great vibe. They have strong and tasty margaritas and my favorite taco's in town with blue corn tortillas from Oaxaca, Mexico. Highly recommend visiting this spot and it's open till late most days of the week.

We love Suerte when wanting a little more upscale, sexy and modern Mexican food experience. Their Suadero tacos and Don Julio are personal favorites. I recommend making a reservation ahead of time if you don't want to wait.

These are our favorite breakfast tacos in town and you must try their green and red salsa! Expect to wait about 20 minutes for your food and there is a lovely little food truck area to chill in. You can also walk just a bit away to Fleet Coffee for a beverage while you wait.

We love eating on the outdoor patio! Feels a bit European and a wonderful spot to enjoy some healthy yet tasty food with a view of South Congress. You have to try the Gem Lettuce Salad, one of our favorites.

One of our all time favorite spots- Licha's has a charm all it's own. Located in an old house on E6th, Licha's will provide you authentic Mexican food (not tex mex), great margaritas and some of the best chips and salsa in town. They have lots of outdoor seating and a cozy, candlelit space inside. We love the bone marrow tuetano's and the cochinita pibil.

Translated from the Japanese word “home,” the original Uchi is located in a refurbished South Austin bungalow. Award-winning Chef Tyson Cole’s signature non-traditional take on Japanese food has delighted Austin’s diverse dining crowd as well as visitors from across the country and around the world since 2003.

Stellar coffee and drinks as well as a few gluten free snacks. There's a nice outdoor patio, but this place is usually poppin' so don't be surprised if there's no seating at busy times.

Music

A place for locals- The Skylark Lounge is a hole in the wall bar with great live music and a little dance floor. Hopefully you will get to catch the town legend, Soul Man Sam for some mo-town and soul performance.

On any given night, The White Horse might feature country, bluegrass, Cajun or conjunto music. Regardless of the musical style, the dance floor at this hipster honky-tonk is always buzzing with activity. House bands include Conjunto Los Pinkys, Rosie & the Ramblers and Two Hoots & a Holler.

After many relocations, Antone's has found a new home in downtown Austin. Up-and-coming blues star Gary Clark Jr. is part-owner of the club, which is continuing the late Clifford Antone's commitment to the blues. The ground floor has a simple layout with the band at the back and a long bar on one side.

Activity

Looking for some fun activities during your stay? Roy G has a great disc golf course and is only 5 minutes from the Airbnb. Less frequented than other disc golf courses in Austin, you will have more space and some great scenic spots to play through.
