Castle Hill Cafe is a fabulous restaurant near downtown Austin. It is an old Austin favorite, in operation since 1986, and there is a reason for this. The food is very good and it is affordable, casual, fine dining. The fare is southwestern and they have a great wine selection..including some Texas wines. I go for the salads. They have huge salads heaped with wonderful and inventive ingredients. My favorite is the Interior Mexican Salad…this is not your average greenery! I dream about them.
