Great BBQ, my favorite is the beef rib but you can't miss with any of the food. If you want a very decadent dessert try the banana pudding.

H-E-B
5808 Burnet RdEasy to get to and usually not that busy early in the day.
This is a bit farther from the apartment but its a destination. You can have coffee here or buffet style food. The seafood counter is my favorite. Delicious fresh sea food and you can buy a bottle and drink it with your meal.
