Oh that’s wonderful news!! Gloria’s is so yummy… love the salsa and bean dip.
Hey Bobby and Boneyard— why so bitter? Lighten up.
who cares about a restaurant opening at the domain? domain’s pr guy is thinking people care - why is this printed in the AAS?
I love the Domain. I don’t shop there a lot, but it’s always a treat to visit. I don’t like malls, so this is a perfect place that’s not an outlet mall for me. Great place to people watch too.
I second the recommendation for Elsi’s.
Biggy, if you’re gonna try to be a grammar nerd, shouldn’t you at least be correct?
Gloria’s is great. It’s authentic, non-pretentious fare and while it has grown to have multiple locations it’s not a big chain. Some of these comments are from those who have obviously never been to a Gloria’s - if you are in Dallas, check out the original on W. Davis in Oak Cliff or the one on Lemmon and you will see. It will be a good addition to Austin. Too bad it’s going into the Domain, because that will probably keep me from going.
Sweet! Another fancy chain-boutique import from Dallas! One that I will never go to.
Try Elsi’s on Burnet Rd. if you want tasty and locally owned Salvadorian food!
Goody. Another worthless business in the pretentious The Domain that I won’t be visiting.
I wasn’t aware there was a country called Salvador.
Wouldn’t this restaurant serve El Salvadorian food?
That is wonderful! My two favorite places in Fort Worth have moved here. Gloria’s and Piranha! Gloria’s drink specials are great too!
After 9 summers in Austin, I say Sno Beach is truly the best snow cone! Big Top is great but they have way more better treats than snow cones!
I’ve been a fan of Casey’s for years.
We’re lamenting the passing of the little sno-cone stand on Burnet Rd near the old Dallas night club. Anyone know of another in the area?
Mike Sutter: Hi Jodi. My daughters and I used to hit Deep Eddy Pool JUST so we could get a Jim-Jim’s, so I have loyalty issues there. But I tried Casey’s last week for the first time and was swept away by cream flavors like Grandma’s Nectar Cream (like maraschino cotton candy). It’s hardly a fair comparison, though, because they bear little resemblance to the gritty, artificial-tasting ice bombs we know as “snow cones.”
Sno Beach is the best place in AUstin and surrounding areas. The ice is fresh and shaved, not crushed, and they have unique flavors that no one else has! Everyone who lives in Austin or visits should make a trip to Sno Beach!
The question is — who makes the best sno cone in Central TX? My boyfriend and his buddy say Casey’s all the way. I really like Jim Jim’s. Other folks swear by Sno Beach. What about you, Mike?
I went to Brussels last October and you’re right, the waffles are to die for! The closest I came to something similar (not AS authentic obviously) was at Eastside Cafe. Almost.
Congratulations Johnny and Kelly! I can’t wait to see you…just a few more weeks! Looking forward to meeting you Kelly. The airstream looks so cool. I love you
KELLY AND JOHN, LOOKS LIKE THE BUSINESS IS GOING GOOD FOR YOU TWO. SO PROUD OF YOU BOTH. A LITTLE OVER 2 WEEKS AND THE BIG DAY WILL BE HERE.YOU TWO ARE IN OUR LOVE AND PRAYERS! AUNT KIM, AND UNCLE HUNK
Congrats, wish I could come down and check it out along with the wedding. Send me an email sometime.
