Unique fusion tacos. Not authentic mexican but very delicious. Queso is bomb. Pro tip: you can order half orders of queso. 4 locations in town, but only 3 have indoor seating. The one on South Congress is in the middle of a fun area to walk and shop around.

Austin built a gigantic pool fed by an underground river. Water is cool/clear but chilly all year round. Dog friendly zone next door. Many people go sit on the riverbank poolside to tan and socialize. If you've never seen a half mile long pool check this out!
