Tacos, tacos, tacos. We like these better than the touristy Torchy's, but those ain't bad either. Word to the wise: Breakfast tacos, queso and a topo chico are about as "Austin" as you can get.

Right around the corner. Great breakfast tacos, fabulous burger and live music pretty much every night of the week. Also, free yoga in the AM M-F.

Multiple houses-turned-bars line this street. There is something for everyone, but it's gotten a little touristy and crowded over the years. Still, some great spots. Check Banger's and Craft Pride for the best beer selection around.

"Dirty" 6th's hipster cousin. East 6th and 7th are home to several great spots including Wild Horse (for 2-stepping), Shangri-la (for a low-key drink) and Via 313 for amazing pizza.
