Combining good food, warm service and live music, The Green Mesquite is an Austin original. Try barbecue ranging from brisket to moist chicken, spicy sausage and flavorful ribs, or opt for tacos, chef salad, chicken fried steak, catfish or po-boys. Two locations, one on Barton Springs just down the street from Zilker Park and the other right by the Y in Oak Hill, ensure that you won't need to go hungry or lack for entertainment.

Good at either Green Mesquite or Scholz Garten. For more information, visithttp://www.greenmesquite.net.
