Food Scene

Along with good standard Mexican fare, the real treats are Salvadoran--papusas and banana-leaf-wrapped tamals. Walking distance from our house.

Walking distance from our house. Descendant of legendary Night Hawk eatery--probably 1st Austin restaurant to integrate staff & customers, long before that was politically popular. Food is just OK.

Arguably the best pizza in Austin. We are New Jersey natives, know that pizza is NEVER eaten with a fork, and have eaten pizza throughout the northeast and across the country. We KNOW pizza.

Traditional Mexican bakery tacos. Get some for breakfast and get a lot of them. They're cheap and tasty. My favorite is potato, egg & cheese on corn tortillas.
