Hacienda Mis Padres Méxican Grill

For a good burger and very short drive from the condo- Get it to go if ordering in the evenings and need it for family as it's more of a real BAR and grill the later in the day it gets so you may not love taking your young kids here but pick up is easy and convenient.

Great outdoor area and good beer. There has been a food truck on site when we've visited but it's mostly about the beer. We pack snacks and toys for the kids and hang outside awhile.

City advice
Getting around
Transportation
If you are trying to get a driver back and forth to Renaissance Festival, this can be challenging by Uber or Lyft. We use a private transportation service that will do pick up and drop off from the condo to the Texas Renaissance Festival. They can also do transport to other locations. They will pick up singles or groups. It's definitely cheaper by the group but regardless, if you need to plan ahead for a ride, please send me a message and I'll give you their contact info. This is a strictly pre-scheduled service they need a week or longer notice to arrange the rides.
