"Remodeled from a historic South Austin farmhouse, this Southern fine dining restaurant in Bouldin Creek is an oasis right between South First and South Lamar. There are views of shaded oaks and grassy knolls as well as beautiful free-roaming peacocks, including a fetching all-white fowl. Mattie’s has excellent fried chicken and classic milk punch from a generational family recipe. Sip a cocktail on the porch to take in the views, or enjoy the historical experience inside the dining room." - Erin Russell
