Can someone recommend a good Bed and Breakfast in Austin, TX? I plan to stay there with my wife over a weekend for her birthday and our wedding anniversary.
Answer
There are a lot of choices, here are a few to get you started:
For Historic Accommodations, check out:
Mansion at Judges Hill - Super elegant, this bistro hotel is a Bed and Breakfast on vitamins! The elegant surroundings evoke the feel of an old-fashioned resort hotel. The public areas are immaculate, and the dining is top-notch. (My Mother in Law is still talking about our dining experience there!)
It is also a historic landmark.

Looking for something a bit more low-key, try:
Carrington's Bluff. This is also a historic building, tucked away under the trees. The rooms have more of that "B and B" feel, with cozy chairs and wardrobes in many rooms.

If fun and funky is your style:
The Austin Motel is one option to consider, it is centrally located - with easy access to downtown and South Congress.
Originally an old-fashioned 'motor court," the Austin Motel has been converted into funky-urban-motel. (You never know who you might run into pool-side!)
Check out the website for details on rooms, rates, and the location.

Has anyone ever had fine dining in the Austin area? (Austin, San Marcos, Round Rock etc.)?
Just Me
I haven't lived here in this city for too long and I don't know where to take my girlfriend for Valentine's Day. I had a couple of options but with so many user reviews one doesn't know what to trust. My current places are the Paggi House, the Emerald Restaurant, Finn & Porter, and Main Street Grill. If anyone has any information on these places or recommendations let me know. Thank you.
Answer
Finn & Porter
500 E Fourth St
Austin, TX 78701
Phone: (512) 493-4900
Voted the "Best Steak" in Austin; one of the 'Top 10" steakhouses in the country and the "Best Wine List." I invite you to be among those raving about the Steaks, fresh Seafood and creative Sushi.
decor is enticing and cosmopolitan, with Asian influences.
You will be delighted to entertain your business clients or host your friends in the new Private Dining Rooms.
Finn & Porter's Loft Bar is open and serving delectable items from its classic bar menu.
The street level entrance of this Hilton restaurant leads you into a low-lit, comfy bar with overstuffed leather chairs. Patrons on the next level come through traditional doors to the spacious dining room with two-story, floor-to-ceiling windows. Flown in from around the globe three times a week and cooked to order, fresh fish is one of Finn & Porter's specialities. Meat lovers op for one of the tender and juicy bone-in steaks.
For my Dad's retirement party dinner we wanted a restaurant that would provide not only a wonderful ambience, but outstanding food and service as well. Finn & Porters was the perfect choice! The manager (John) was helpful, knowledgeable and made us feel right at home. The food was fantastic. The crab cakes, sushi, and oysters were perfect. My halibut had an unepxected zing and flavor. Our steaks, and stuffed chicken were amazing. The wine options were outstanding. Every detail was taken into consideration by the staff and kitchen - and every course was worth the wait. The restaurant can be a little noisy thanks to the acoustics, but its well worth it. The menu is reasonably priced, the food and wine pairings are wonderful, and the staff is attentive and helpful. This is definitely a place worth putting on your favorites or must visit list!
