Hill Country Barbecue

Everybody knows to go to this Penn Quarter restaurant for awesome barbecue, strong drinks, and, downstairs, live music nearly nightly. The music tends toward outlaw country and honky-tonk; most Wednesday nights, the HariKaraoke Band provides live backup as a singer takes the microphone and “rocks 'n twangs” her heart out.
