Phone 512.300.0946. Please add Santa Catarina restaurant to your listing. Santa Catarina is a unique boutique restaurant that serves interior mexican food.
Reviewed By st25w - Paris, France
Santa Catarina is simply the most authentic and best Mexican cuisine in the area. Fresh ingredients and a unique interior menu make for a perfect combination. This is not your standard Tex-Mex and the quality is far above anything else served locally. Service was good and friendly. Authentic restaurant and delicious. A+

Geat frozen joghurt in about 20 different flavors, with about 20 toppings. You pay by the ounce (49 cents + tax). We enjoyed it a lot, it tastes great and you feel you eat a "healthy dessert". We will be back!
3. Rusty Rudder Lake Travis

Reviewed By M J - Austin, Texas
My husband, a friend and I had lunch at the Rusty Rudder on a Saturday. The restaurant was about half full. We all ordered a hamburger with fries. Our meals were very tasty but the hamburger with fries was little pricey at $10.99. Our waiter was average and our food was delivered about 10 minutes after we ordered. Great place to sit on the deck and enjoy the lake.

The staff was gracious and smiling when we approached. They sat our party of 5 quickly and had our drinks out quickly as well. The menu was simple and the food came in a timely manner. Best of all - there was bad weather moving in so they packed up our food to go as we had come by boat. We sat on one of the 2 side patios where there was another couple there with their dog (they also came by boat). We were all surprised to find out they may refrain from allowing dogs which would be such a shame because so many of us have our dogs on our boats. Overall the experience was good and we will visit again soon!
6. Ernie's On the Lake

Reviewed By Moved2Texas - Austin, Texas
We visited Ernies on the lake and enjoyed our evening with good music and nice food. Ernies has two sections - one is a sit down restaurant with a full menu. There is also a bar area that serves appetizer options. The bar area has a bandstand and they have music acts on at least Friday and Saturday nights. We enjoyed the bar and the appetizer, but were disappointed at the lack of service by the waitstaff. We got there early before the band started and there were three waitresses standing around but none of them ever came to take our order. After 5-10 minutes, I ordered drinks and food from the bartender and carried the drinks back to our table. The bartender was very attentive and friendly and the food was prompt. I later saw the waitresses taking orders from other tables so perhaps they hadn't started their shifts yet.
Ernies is located at Emerald Point on Lake Travis and is accessible by land and water, with ample courtesy docks for seagoing diners. Other than disappointment with the waitresses, we had a great time. This site was formerly the :
"Rusty Rudder" and a few years ago was called "Carlos and Charlies"

Steaks, seafood, pasta and oyster bar
Reviewed By Papadshaw - Austin, Texas
My meal was very good however my daughters had a little extra ingredient. A grasshopper was included in her dish.
She is not a very squeamish person and just casually informed the server. The manager made his way to our table and said that he would comp us with a couple of desserts that we didn't want. Really that's it. Just what we wanted! Let's hope we can get some more cooked bugs!
Goodwill is one of the most important things a restaurant has. A manager offering a couple of desserts for something like this on a bill of $150+ has given this place a bad review.

My six year old and I visited and had the yummiest ice creme. Plenty of great flavors to choose from and a great little space to relax eating it. We simply loved it.
9. Sundancer Grill

Reviewed By adventurer1234 - Cincinnati
The Sundancer Grill is located on Lake Travis at the Sail & Ski Yacht Club. A varied and very reasonably priced menu along with extensive beer and drink options is available. All of our entree selections were well prepared and tasty. There were several two for one specials offered that four of the seven of us enjoyed. These are all complimented by the view of the sail boats in the harbor.The restaurant was full but the tables were spaced appropriately, service was good but not intrusive, and the noise level was acceptable.
