Do you remember Austin (back in the good old days)?

[Driver 8]

not one restaurant in Austin from 1960 to 2000–possibly excluding Jeffrey’s—could crack the top 75 restaurants in Austin in 2020.

Jeffrey's has been around a long time

When I was a student, I would go the the Hoffbrau Steakhouse down on west 6th, and get the large sirloin steak, eat some and take the rest home. Had dinner for about 4 days! As I recall, it was really cheap compared to steak costs now.

In the early 60s, our family friend Benny (H Y Benedict Jr to drop a name) took me and my wife to be (now over 50 yrs married) to the Hoffbrau-said it was the place to go.

We also used to go to Moore Burger (remember we were collge kids in the 60s) which I believe was at the corner of Gualalupe and west 29th.

Remember eating at Night Hawk on the Drag with my Dad many times after games in the mid 60's - early 70's.... gawd I miss those seemingly innocent times.

Remember also being a Schlotsky's sandwich junkie when they first opened in the early 70's... still am!!

The late 80s were peak Austin and I will fight you over that

Since I got here in '88 I suppose I'm on your team. I got to experience a lot of what's in the video. I even docked at the pier and at a burger. Pretty cool back then with all the old Austin things. Now everything's being torn down to build new shiny things. I don't particularly care for all of the changes.

The GM Steakhouse #5 on the drag. In the mid 70's My buddy would go there every Thursday after class to have a steak.
