Jamba Juice

3300 Bee Caves Rd
Austin, TX 78746

Tara H. writes: I love Jamba Juice because many of their smoothies do not contain the weird textures that I find so difficult to stomach elsewhere.

I know it's weird but seeds and pulp and stuff (you know, the healthy stuff) make me gag.

2765 Bee Caves Rd
Suite 205
Austin, TX 78746

Sarah M. writes: McAlister's Deli has invaded Austin. This fresh and friendly deli is a medium-sized chain with a location near you. Not really. The store is actually not that common and has a cozy enough feel to cover up the truth of their franchised identity. (I'm…

Randalls Food & Pharmacy

9911 Brodie Ln
Austin, TX 78748

Chad S. writes: Okay, first of all, Randall's is a Hi/Low chain.  What that means is that stuff that's on sale is a good deal, but you're generally going to get raped on a lot of items that aren't...so, you've got to have a club card thingy.  Fortunately (for me),…

Austin, TX 78750

Kim P. writes: Everyone who hates on Taco Cabana (*cough* my stupid ingrate yankee friends from Wisconsin) can seriously just shut up.  Taco Cabana is very good for fresh fast food.  No, it is not a gourmet dining experience.  Yes, it is a garish and blindingly…

Serranos Cafe & Cantina

12233 Ranch Road 620 N
Austin, TX 78750

Anthony I. writes: Serranos was pretty alright.  The chips come out hot and the menu offers a few twists on the regular tex-mex fare.  Nothing too crazy or exciting, however, so I give it a, "I'll go if I'm nearby and hungry, but I won't drive past another decent…
