Guero's Taco Bar

Geuro's Taco Bar on South Congress in Austin is one of our favorite places to hang out. Good Tex/Mex food of course but especially fun on the weekend when the weather is fine. On the weekends they have live music in the afternoon under the live oaks in an area that had been used as a waiting area for those waiting for a table in the restaurant. These days it's just one of the better music and dance places in town. They also make fine margaritas which we really enjoy -- shaken, no salt please. It's always a busy spot.

An especially great treat for us happened on our last night in town. We had stopped in at "Home Slice" pizza across the street to pick up some pizza for our dinner. Only to discover that Joe Ely was playing live for KDRP radio at Guero's. It was a very cool night but a really great show. We only caught the last half hour but Joe was in fine form. Another instance where we ought to have been prepared and investigated ahead of time.

If you're visiting Austin Texas, check out Guero's and the scene on South Congress. When the music is playing it's a great place to be.
