Here are some recommendations from a teacher/coach who took students to Austin for summer camp: Threadgills:  Yummy veggies, home cooking, live bands on weekends [|http://www.threadgills.com/menu.cfm] Shady Grove  : Best Chicken Fried Steak and cobbler. Nice atmosphere outside seating [|http://www.theshadygrove.com/] Huts Burgers: YUMMY Burgers—cheap on Wednesday’s [|http://www.hutsfrankandangies.com/] The link above also has Frank and Angie’s pizza which is good too. But you have to get a burger. I love these. I think it is Wed when they are cheap. The line will be out the door. It is on 6th street Amy’s Ice Cream:  Best Ice cream EVER: I go to the sixth street location. [|http://www.amysicecreams.com/] Kerbey Lane Café:  UNBELEIVABLE pancakes, organic food, Go here for breakfast even if your hotel provides it. This is wonderful. I go to the one on Guadalupe St. [|http://www.kerbeylanecafe.com/] Conan’s Pizza:  college atmosphere, good pizza. Usually during the week lunch is about $5 with drink, pizza, and salad. Player’s:  Burger place, burgers are not ½ as good as huts, but I love the chips and salsa and shakes. [|http://www.yelp.com/biz/players-austin] (no website, these are directions) Eastside Café:  This is an organic, expensive restaurant. I went there once, the food was great, but it was very expensive. [|http://www.eastsidecafeaustin.com/Master_Frame_Story.html] Stubb’s BBQ  [|http://www.stubbsaustin.com/music.php] Bottom right hand corner has the food info. If I were telling you must sees: Kerbey lane Café, Hust Burgers, Amy’s Ice Cream. Those are the ones that I never miss! Stephanie Williams Champions restaurant in the Marriot Courtyard is excellent. Food is good - price is right. We had chopped cobb salad and tortilla soup - really good.
