Mi Tierra Cafe for Mexican

The Tip Top for everything else.

I haven't found a BBQ joint there that I like

Mexican:
Rosario's
La Fonda on Main

Both will make you weep.

La Margarita in downtown for Mexican.

Chachos on Callahan at 2am after you leave the bar.

Rudy's original location out in Leon Springs off of I-10 is about as good as you can find around here for BBQ.

Bill Miller sucks

John Mueller's in Austin is what I use to judge BBQ and nothing in SA comes close

Bill Miller was tongue-in-cheek.
You can't throw a brick there without hitting one.

I don't doubt it for a second.
Maybe I should've said, "You can't throw a brick there without hitting at least two?"

I don't understand it. They charge outrageous prices for shitty BBQ and these people still flock to them.

throw a rock in any direction.

it will hit one of dem big women Chuck has been talking about.

ask her where the grub be.

just be careful b/c that big lady probably has a big old boy w/her.

be prepared to have to walk fast for at least block to get away if you anger the hippos.

Rosario's is excellent. Some of the best Tex Mex I've had

I can't tell y'all how disappointed I was the first and only time I tried Bill Miller's. I'd rather eat a McRib.

Bill Miller's is pretty much only good for sweet tea.

I like Paloma Blanca (Broadway/Austin Highway) - best chili gravy in the city in my estimation

La Gloria is at Pearl (not Tex-Mex but pretty damn good).

Of course, Mi Tierra and Rosario's and any little hole-in-the-wall on the West Side.

The Granary (also at Pearl) is supposedly good for BBQ, so I've heard
