Eat

• 1 Trudy's Four Star, 13059 Four Star Blvd, ☏ +1 512-301-4300. Regarded by some as the favorite for Tex-Mex food in town, but this also means they are generally incredibly crowded and loud. Excellent margaritas with specials each night of the week. They're known more for their Mexican martinis than for their food. 

Drink

• 1 Treaty Oak Distilling Co., 16604 Fitzhugh Rd, ☏ +1 512-599-0335. One of the first craft distilleries established in Texas, with a focus on using local ingredients when possible. They make Treaty Oak Rum, Waterloo Gin, Graham's Texas Tea and Starlite Vodka, with whiskey set to release in 2013.
