Screaming Goat

April 17, 2009

We made our way to the tiny house on 1oth, and got an unexpected surprise. The food was delicious, waitstaff amazing, and the price perfection. We sipped our $2 Coronas without guilt and indulged in tacos, burritos and more. Definitely recommend for breakfast, lunch or dinner. No screaming in this group, only praise!

Andiamo Ristorante

As diners drove up to the dimly lit strip mall, concerns were raised. As soon as we stepped into the Italian themed oasis, all doubts vanished. This quaint restaurant surprised us with every bite. The service was incredible, and the menu extensive. Knowledgable staff and sounds of Italy made this a top find in North Austin.
