Dinner at Steiner ranch steak house is a must for my wife and I on our anniversary. Just out side Austin and has an amazing atmosphere along with great views from the patio. My wife loved it even knocked up with virgin drinks. Try to get there in time to see the sunset.

Drive right through it.. . . . and say no the beggars on the corner
To be serious I have not been to Austin as a getaway in many years and since alcohol and adult entertainment is out of the question Im not much help HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Thanks guys. The only thing I wanted to do was eat at franklins but idk about waiting in line for a long time. Friend of mine told me about a bbq joint called stiles switch bbq I think we are going to check out.

Franklins is good but it’s really hyped up. Heims in Fort Worth is better in my opinion, but you know what they say about those lol.
Visit the springs, Bob Bullock Texas History Museum, Walk around Lady Bird Lake trails, Eat lot's of tacos, stare at a plethora of pretty ladies when your wife isn't looking. Shop on South Congress. Eat more tacos. The Blanton art museum on Campus. Believe it or not the new Downtown public library is worth checking out. It is more than just a place with books in it.
Go to Louie Mueller for BBQ instead (located in Taylor), where Franklin got his start. Same process, cheaper, less crowd and better atmosphere. Austin not the same as in the 70's when Willie was running around town. IMO it has been on a terrible decline for the past several decades. The better attractions are in the outlying areas (smaller communities outside Austin). Safer for sure!
Stiles Switch BBQ on N Lamar near DPS HQ is as good IMHO small line vs long line at Franklins
Take her to shop S Congress during the day good luck parking here Uber from your hotel if you can
Head over to the Domain for fancy shopping
Lot of big retail with hard to pronounce names
North is a great Italian restaurant in the Domain
Apple store there if you are inclined not my favorite place
Zilker pool is nice during the day ice cold spring fed even when it’s 100 degrees
Bob Bullock Museum is good
Schultz’ beer garden is tucked into the area between all the State Buildings and UT Campus you’d miss it if you weren’t looking for it
Back in the day Ann Richards and Bill Clinton would meet at Schultz’
They have good jambalaya go figure in a German beer garden
If it’s warms up the bats fly out from under the Congress Ave at dusk
Best view is from atop the sidewalk on the bridge
