Looking for a restaurant near the downtown Hilton in Austin (500 East 4th Street, 78701) for a rehearsal dinner. Any suggestions? Along this vein, has anyone tasted the food served on the 18th floor of the Hilton Garden Inn during an event? (The food served at the bar is different from the event food.) Thanks.
PS The Moonshine Patio Bar & Grill would be fabulous, but the rehearsal is on a Friday, and they said they only serve the 4-course meal for events from Sunday to Thursday. They said they are too busy on Fridays and Saturdays to do anything but hors d'oeuvres.

The Roaring Fork has three different rooms for private parties depending on the number of people. It's no more than a 10 minute walk from the Hilton.

Parkside? They might be too busy as well.

Eddie V's Prime Seafood - One of the best restaurants in the city. They offer private dining and prefix menus at different price points per person.

You didn't mention if you wanted upscale or more casual, like Tex-Mex. If you want a more casual dining experience, try The Iron Cactus. The food is very good, and they offer private dining also.

The Iron Cactus looked perfect....unfortuately, they were booked for the evening I need. They recommended Ztejas, which also looked nice.....I'm waiting to hear from them.
Eddie V's was a little on the expensive side.
I emailed Parkside also. Thanks everyone!
