"Located in the recently opened Otis Hotel near the UT Austin campus (with a name that winks at the school’s Forty Acres nickname), Acre 41 offers quietly sophisticated environs for kicking back with a cozy drink. This music-forward hotel features a record concierge stationed right in the lobby, and the restaurant sings with rich flavors. Start with an appetizer course of tuna wonton tacos, roasted bone marrow with tomato jam on toast, or truffle honey burrata. Then go the extra acre with an entree like belly-on pork chop with cider-maple jus, truffled spaghetti, or prime tomahawk rib-eye." - Cynthia Drake
