4 Best Day Trips from Austin
"You'll find a mix of tourists fresh from floating the river—wearing shorts and flip-flops—and locals who have homes on the Guadeloupe here for their weekly steak dinner—wearing jeans and cowboy hats. With views of that same river from every table, it's a popular spot for evening outings (we highly recommend a sunset margarita). There's chicken-fried steak on the menu, but you're at this Hill Country institution for the real deal—try the bacon-wrapped filet or the pepper steak served with lime herb butter." - Mandy Ellis
