"Iconic South Austin spot Threadgill’s, known for music and chicken fried steaks, is finally shuttering its 301 West Riverside Drive location after owner Eddie Wilson tried to keep the restaurant alive for several years amidst increasing rent, property taxes, and insurance costs. It will close sometime after Thanksgiving in November. This shutter doesn’t affect the original Threadgill’s location up on 6416 North Lamar Boulevard, which will remain open." - Nadia Chaudhury
