The Best Austin Restaurants For Dinner With The Parents - Austin - The Infatuation

"For the parent who wants queso and margaritas If you’re an Austin transplant and it’s your parents’ first time in town, Chuy’s is always a good idea. The Tex-Mex mini-chain was born on Barton Springs Road back in 1982, which makes it the ideal spot to give your parents a good taste of the town. It also happens to be easy on the bank account, since you plan on “showing them around” via many, many meals while they’re in town. Enchiladas and fajitas are the must-order items here, but so is the Elvis Presley Memorial Combo. The original location is the best, and it helps keep Austin weird." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
