Where can you eat and enjoy some great music at the same time?

This is one great place! Where are some of the other places?

ARTZ RIB HOUSE - A South Austin Landmark
2330 S. Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX 78704
512-442-8283
http://www.artzribhouse.com/

Artz Rib House is a great place for some great food. They have music acts on their stage. Check their web site for current information.What I like about it is their Sunday afternoon bluegrass jam sessions. It is not usual to see 10-12 pickers gathered around, and several of them playing music at one time. You can sit out on the patio or stay inside, and still hear the music going on. Everyone including the players have a greattime!
