    what's good? i'll be in tomorrow night, staying at the Hilton on E. 4th. looking for something medium high-end, decent wine list? steaks an option, but not mandatory. bbq and margaritas are another idea.

    we're out early the next morning so probably won't be a late night.

    wink is a fun place to eat. trulucks is pretty close to where you are and some bars to stop by for a bit everywhere next to it to. i would say its more med then med/highend though.

    Truluck's has good seafood, including dungeness crabs last time I was there. Good alcohol selection, too.

    I'm down for tacos if you are, basso. Or burgers. Beer budget, my man.

    Check out restaurants in The Domain. Joe Dimaggio's, North, and Jaspers are all very good.

    im pretty sure joe dimaggios closed. there are too many restaurants in the domain, they are going to struggle for a while in my opinion.

    feel like it? definitely. not sure how my time will work out. i get in late afternoon, and have a colleague arriving a bit later, so might be time for a an early drink? my flight out is late on thursday, so there may be a window in the afternoon, but that schedule is TBD.

    send me you mobile via the board and i'll call/text when things firm up?

    tin- you around as well?

    Austin Land and Cattle (not to be confused with the chain Texas Land and Cattle). Ate there Saturday night and it was darn good!
