Lakeside is the only restaurant that delivers in the area. Their food is fabulous, and it is a popular place. Live music Thurs-Sat night. It can get pretty crowded in the evenings but it is a great place if you are just off the lake and want to eat dinner. They have a great menu and food for everyone. Attire: Super casual, even lake attire as long as you are covered Recommendation: Their wood fire pizzas are delicious and they have one of the best bone-in pork chops I have ever had.

Steiner Ranch Steakhouse is legendary and still owned and operated by the Steiner family. The steakhouse has a lot of history about the area and the views on the decks and patios are stunning. You will want to make reservations as they are very busy on weekends. There is a great happy hour and they have live music on the weekends on the patio. Pricey but if you are looking for a nice date night and a great steak you will love Steiner. They also have a delicious Sunday brunch! Attire: Dressy casual

The Oasis is an Austin legend. They are known for their beautiful sunset views of Lake Travis. They get pretty busy so you want to go early or make reservations. Food/drinks are just average and it is a little pricey but if you have never seen the sunset over Lake Travis The Oasis is a beautiful place.

Best tacos in Austin! They have a great bar and their salsas are delicious Attire: Super Casual Recommendation: You have to get their queso, AMAZING! Tacos are small so you want to get a couple of them per person. You cant go wrong with any of their breakfast tacos! For lunch or dinner we like the Green Chili Pork, The Crossroads, and Mr Orange.

Hula Hut is about an hour by boat up the river On Lake Austin but it is worth the drive. You will see beautiful houses on Lake Austin and drive under the 360 bridge. They are VERY busy during summer months but it is worth the wait. The bar is first come, first serve and you can eat off the full menu in the bar area. Plenty of boat parking Attire: Super casual including lake attire Recommendations: They have a great burger, their BBQ Baby Back ribs are AMAZING and I love the Hula Hut Chopped Salad add Shrimp.

Entertainment & Activities

It’s a good idea to get tickets a few days in advance unless you are going to the matinee. This is the most amazing movie experience ever with reclining seats and dine in food and drink service. Tickets are not much more than other theaters and the experience is 10X better.

Essentials

I absolutely LOVE this HEB! It is a little further of a drive but totally worth it. They have a restaurant and bar inside the store called Table 620 and the food and drinks are AMAZING! They have the best pulled pork and BBQ in the area. You can eat there or take things to go. You DO NOT have to bring your own bags.

You have to take your own reusable bags to this HEB or they charge you .25 cents per bag. There are HEB bags in the pantry, if you use them, please remember to put them back. Nice, clean store, great produce, meat, seafood department.
