We've been going here for fine Italian food since it open many years ago. Tucked away in a very nondescript shopping center, this white tablecloth restaurant is a true gem. Amazing food. Attentive help and homey at the same time. Go, you won't be disappointed.

This promenade pretty much circles all of Lady Bird Lake (formerly Town Lake). Plenty of room to walk or ride bikes and savor the beauty of the lake while taking in our many new skyscrapers. Personally I feel I'm in a Twilight Zone episode as I was born here in 1954 and it so different now! Still very serene and beautiful, just way grown up.

This large warehouse space is like and interactive art display and children's museum for adults and kids alike. I'd say it's actually more geared towards adults. It's fun. I recommend it highly.
