"On weekends, the crowds waiting at this vegan/vegetarian destination spill onto the corner of South 1st St. and West Mary St. Bouldin Creek Cafe is its own mini-scene where the ambiance and the food are equally fun. Many of Bouldin's dishes, like the Wanna-BLTA and homemade veggie chorizo breakfast tacos, taste almost as meaty—and just as good—as their original counterparts. It’s a great excuse to sip micheladas or mimosas after a morning at Barton Springs, and seeing the out-of-towners you bring with you praise the restaurant’s funky mosaics, buzzing patio, and multicolored interior might soften your gripes about I-35 traffic." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion, matthew jacobs
