Things To Do

We've included several of our favorite spots to enjoy together, restaurants and activities alike. Some might require a drive, but many are within walking distance.

Texas Capitol

See photos tab for picture from our first date in Austin.

Auditorium Shores at Town Lake Metro Park Pedestrian Walkway

Auditorium Shores at Town Lake Metro Park Pedestrian Walkway, Austin, TX 78704

One of our favorite spots to visit, and where Mitchell proposed. This is a great spot to visit to snap some cool photos of downtown, take a peaceful morning stroll, or just relax. There is a long running/walking trail close to the river if you want to take a morning stroll and see different parts of the city.

Uchi

801 South Lamar Boulevard, Austin, TX 78704
, (512) 916-4808

This is our favorite date night spot in Austin! If you are a sushi lover, you will love this place.

Jo's Coffee (Location of the famous 'I love you so much' sign in Austin)

1300 South Congress Avenue, Austin, TX 78704
, (512) 444-3800

Drive or walk (doable, but it will be a hike) here to get a great picture and explore South Congress. There are so many cool restaurants and shops along the street, and a great view of the city! See the photos tab for a picture of Mitch and I from his first visit to Austin.

Green Mesquite BBQ

1400 Barton Springs Road, Austin, TX 78704

We have spent many nights here. We love their barbeque! Mitch would recommend their chicken wings as an appetizer.

DeSano Pizzeria Napoletana - Downtown Austin

301 Lavaca Street, Austin, TX 78701
, (512) 256-2426

GREAT pizza, and right across the street from Hotel Zaza! Come here for a quick lunch or dinner.

Lonesome Dove

419 Colorado St, Austin, TX 78701
, (512) 271-2474

Another one of our date night favorites!! Even better, it's less than 2 blocks from the hotel. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu!

Elephant Room

315 Congress Avenue, Austin, TX 78701
, (512) 473-2279

Another first date night spot for Mitch and I. Great place to grab a drink and listen to some jazz music! Walking distance from Hotel Zaza as well as an added bonus!

Congress Avenue Bridge

Congress Avenue, Austin, TX 78704
, (512) 364-0759

If you have heard of the bats in Austin and have ever wanted to see them, you will be in Austin at a great time to do so! Come to this location to watch the bats leave the bridge in the evening. Once finished, take a stroll to Veracruz Tacos at the Line hotel and grab a taco for yourself!

Veracruz All Natural

111 East Cesar Chavez Street, Austin, TX 78701
, (512) 665-2713

How would a trip to Austin be complete without trying a breakfast taco? This is one of Mitch and I's favorite places to get a taco and enjoy. My pick - the migas taco for breakfast, and the fish taco for lunch. Also within walking distance of Hotel Zaza.

Red Ash

303 Colorado Street, Austin, TX 78701
, (512) 379-2906

Another one of our favorite date night spots! In the mood for incredible italian food? This is the spot! If you would like to visit this restaurant, we recommend trying to secure a reservation a few weeks in advance. You won't be disappointed!

Rainey Street

Rainey Street, Austin, TX 78701

This area of downtown has great restaurants and outdoor patios for enjoyment during the day, and provides a really fun night scene in the evening! It is a walkable distance, but a bit further than some of the other options provided for a trek.

Capital Cruises

208 Barton Springs Road, Austin, TX 78704
, (512) 480-9264

If you have some time during the day and want to see Austin in a unique way, head here and rent a kayak or paddleboard and cruise around Lady Bird Lake right in the heart of downtown.

Favorite Pizza
