If you're in the mood for more traditional Mexican food, we do suggest this place. Beside the great chips and salsa/guac, they have homemade flour tortillas and they plate dinners are pretty good.

We love this place. The atmosphere is great inside and out. They have an excellent patio to enjoy a nice breeze along with your favorite drink. our favorite meal is their fajitas..a bit pricey but well worth it with the grilled veggies. the taco salad with lime tequila dressing is amazing. and bonus, they give a great discount for our military.

This place is on the pricey end but they do have an excellent happy hour and the chips and salsa are amazing. I would call this Mexican Cuisine. The atmosphere inside is more upscale but comfortable and the food is phenomenal.

breakfast
This is one of my favorite places to eat breakfast. It's all about trains. The owner is here most days seating guests and talking with his customers. The pancakes are great and they have so many different combinations of omelette, it'll make your head spin. Get there before 9am or you will be waiting in a long line.

The breakfasts here are amazing..and so is the line on the weekends to get in. Get here before 9am and you should be ok. Everything here is good but the waffles are really great, not to mention pretty thick. They do have gluten free options if needed.

Food Scene
Munich meets Texas in this local favorite biergarten. If you're in the mood for some local German food with traditional flare, this is the place. They have so many different beers and the food is like it is in southern Baveria (although.. I have told them to add some Knodel with gravy to the menu). You will have fun and leave full. Prost!

This place...sigh. Made from an old German barn next to the infamous Gruene Hall that was on the movie Michael with John Travolta and where George Strait got his start. This restaurant has both indoor and outdoor accommodations. If you can sit outside while the weather is great, do so (tell the wait staff it's your first time and you may get a great seat). You have several levels of outside seating that overlooks the famous Guadalupe River. Hint: try the onion rings. If there are only 2 or 3 ppl in the party, the small will be just the right amount because they are huge and hands down the best onion rings in the state. They have home cooking such as catfish, trout, chicken fried steak, gruene beans.. my favorite is the tomatillo chicken. It's a bit spicy but has so much flavor and is juicy and tender. Well, you decide on what your favorite is.

Whether a romantic dinner for two or an upscale family gathering, this is one of the best around. The ambience inside sets the tone for one of the best meals you've had. *HINT: the brined pork is our favorite...so far. Don't miss out on the charming courtyard also. Lights. Candles. A soft breeze. Great music. Wine. Don't forget to make a reservation because this place is always busy.

Are you in the mood for some cajun seafood? Then don't miss out on this local favorite. From the oysters to the cocktails, this place is one of the best in the area. The shrimp and grits...omgosh.

This is the place to be to have some homestyle cooking and most excellent pies. Live music and Texas comedy are a regular here (check the website for dates). You'll have as much fun looking around at the pictures as you will telling stories over beer. Come hungry and leave happy but get here a bit early because this place fills up quick.

A bit pricey, but...the steaks at Myron's are memorable and you'll be planning your next visit before your check comes. Mouth watering steaks, unbelievably delish and flavorful fish, Mryon's delivers on all scales. This is the place for a romantic night out, special gathering or a great first impression for business outings. Whatever the reason, don't pass up the opportunity to have a great meal. PS save room for the creme brulee.

Definite local favorite. Close to downtown, Landa Park and Schlitterbaun. They have daily specials (meatloaf tuesday will sell out quickly) as well as staple items and a kids menu. Best sweet potato fries around.

Sightseeing
Old time German charm in a city that shuts down early. Get here early and enjoy shopping, local German food, wineries and the local scenery. Go a few minutes outside the city to enchanted rock and go hiking. come during Oktoberfest or during the holidays and you'll experience Germany without having to leave the state. you'll love it. The restaurants here that we frequent often are Ottos German Bistro..great for a romantic dinner. A bit pricey but worth it. Old German Bakery for breakfast. The old world recipes still live in the hills of Texas and you can taste them here, from potato pancakes to strudel, you won't be sorry for stopping in. The Auslander. Bavarian food at a great price . The atmosphere here is German biergarten. You can sit outside or in, it's up to you. Check your days because this beauty is only open Thurs - Sat. 10am until 4 or if they sell out. This place has the best pies in Texas (maybe anywhere). If you can't decide on what flavor, have 2 slices. lol. They won't judge you. Alamo Springs cafe. This one is not within Fredericksburg town proper , but outside in the country. You will have to google it to find it, but the drive is very nice. These burgers will not disappoint. Bring your appetite.

Another great German town just outside of northern San Antonio. Small but great local vibes and home of George Strait. Great shopping and eating. If you can, visit the dodging duck around 6pm. they have house brews and great food.

If you have never been to Bandera and have the time, this town is straight out of an old western..with modern touches. It's charming yet rugged. This town, along with the others mentioned, are a great way to spend a leisurely day. Side note:If you have the time, highway 173 between Bandera and Kerrville is just gorgeous.

If you have never seen a pristine river before, one that looks like you kept the faucet on over a bed of rocks, then you need to see this. Knee deep in most places and cold, Concan hosts the frio river. and it is frio. lol. This place is breathtaking. HInts: take highway 16 from Bandera. It is an hours drive so make sure you have gas and maybe something to drink. If you want to see Texas hill country in all its glory, Concan, Bandera, Boerne and Fredericksburg will complete your journey. In the summer months, starting in mid may to about mid to last of August, our peaches are in season and you can find them being sold along the roads or you can drive directly to the source in Fredericksburg and pick them yourself at Marburger Orchard.

Come November, this towns population exceeds the limits. Why? Wurstfest, of course. Come and get your sausage on. And your bier. We have a huge biergarten with traditional German music to dance to. Put on your lederhosen or dirndl and join in on the fun. Bier on tap and our local favorite may be scheduled.. Alex Meixner. If you can get his tickets, do so. You won't be disappointed. The fun goes on from Nov 6th thru the 15th this year. Do you sprechen sie fun?

Waterpark? Yes please. This is the first and the original right in the heart of downtown New Braunfels. It's not only fun, but it's awesome. The lazy river empty's out into a river..the comal (hint: watch your sunglasses). On a hot Texas day, this place is great. It's an all day affair. habe Spaß!
