This is our third in-ground pool and by far our best pool. Liquid Dreams Custom Pools and Patt have really contributed to our lifestyle. Our pool went in at the just before Thanksgiving, and thanks to Patt and his extra effort, met our deadline. We had family come down from Minnesota over the Thanksgiving week and we wanted to entertain them in our backyard. We got the spa heated up and put the turkey on our built in outdoor grill provided by Patt. Everything turned out wonderful and the family had a great time. They even jumped from the spa into the pool (pretty cold) and then back into the spa (Minnesotans). So over the winter we used spa consistently, and entertained our friends occasionally. Everyone loves the spa. It is a raised spa done in rock, it has a shelf perfect for sitting on, heats like you would not believe, and has an extra blower that can really hit you deep into the muscles. We are now using the pool and spa since it is starting the warm up. Our routine is for me to come home after work, turn on the spa, do a short workout, and then jump into the pool and spa with the wife. This is where we share our days and make plans for the future. The pool and spa have really centered us on our house and backyard. We no longer want to go out to restaurants, nor sit in front of a mind numbing tv. We are more active, our communication is better, and overall, we are much happer people thanks to our pool and Patt.
Now about the pool. It is as close to maintenance free as I have ever seen. Once a month I remove leaves from the skimmer basket, and we skim the occasional new leaf off the surface of the pool, thats it. Remember this is my third pool and I can tell you there is a huge different in the maintenance of this pool compared to my past pools. Everyone who has seen our pool, spa, outdoor grill, saltwater deck, and backyard haven has just loved it. We have completed around the deck with grass and more plants and we really have a little bit of paradise and seclusion. I have friends, who had completely renovated their pool last year, it is very nice. However, when they saw our pool they wish they had gone with Patt. They can see the quality and professionalism put into our pool. The shape. colors, size, effects, and looks really was made for this backyard and this house. Everything fits. I guess thats what you get when you go custom. I never realized the difference until I could see it first hand. Liquid Dreams Custom Pools really did a wonderful job. When putting in the pool, as always, it is a process. Events always gets in the way, there are sometimes delays, like our tile was late because of the hurricane that hit Houston, but Patt was always accessible and we would have talks sometimes three times a week. I would call him and he always returned my call. He clearly explained what was happening and gave me an idea of what to expect. You have no idea idea how important that is until you are staring at a hole in your backyard. All in all, I had a wonderful experience with Liquid Dreams Custom Pools and Patt. I would gladly use them again.
Pros: Awesome backyard oasis!

Adobe Pueblo has been in Austin for many years. They have the greatest looking furniture, custom pieces, and southwestern decor. The wall art is fantastic, and the furniture is very authentic looking. They have a clearance room with discount pieces, which is the only place in the store I can afford to buy from, but I like to browse there for ideas for my home. You could get lost in there with so many ideas.

I had lunch here yesterday and was quite pleased. I was with a co-worker and it was her 1st time eating a gyro. She's a pretty picky eater so it was an adventure for her. Me on the other hand--not so much because I love gyros. I LOVED the texture of the meat, the slices of cucumber and and the sauce. The flat bread was fresh, soft and filled with slices of the gyro meat. We both had the daily lunch special of a gyro wrap and chose fries as our side. I'm not a huge fry lover but they were good. The lunch special a gyro, side (fries or greek salad) and a drink for around $8--I felt it was reasonably priced for the quantity and quality of food we both got. A couple of diners suggested we try the hummus on our next visit so next time we are in the are we will be sure to drop in and do just that.
Pros: Large Portions, Lunch Specials, Outdoor Dining Area
Cons: none

My husband and I love this store. They have the best selection of really well crafted furniture...and it is all raw and unfinished. This is great because you can stain it or paint it any shade or design your heart pleases. All the furniture we have purchased from here has held up really well. We bought an awesome bunkbed from here for our girls and it is super sturdy and will last for many years. Prices for some stuff is a little high considering that they are unfinished, but the craftmenship is great.

my roommates and i absolutely LOVE this bar! the decor is beautiful, the drinks are absolutely delicious, and the dj always happens to have the perfect playlist going. the bartenders are always so friendly and attentive and the crowd this place draws is just as fun. if you're looking to get away from the over-the-top craziness of 6th street and the pretentious snobs on 4th, this is definitely the place to go!

I LOVE this place. All the dj's I've heard here are amazing and don't play the current top 40 radio hits (which is a great thing). If you're looking for "atmosphere", whatever that might mean to you, this probably isn't gonna be your new fav club. Plus, I don't go out looking for some lovin', and I'm pretty sure this isn't that kind of place if that's what you want. I love the graffiti on the wall and the sparse ambience. Great place to get on the dance floor to dj's who know what they're doing.
Pros: great music
Cons: small

The food is great. I love to come to eat during lunch time. Is always busy so you know that this is a good thing. Everyone seem to enjoy the food. My only recomendation is that they need a website to take orders so people don't have to wait for thier order.
Pros: Great location, they serve fast
Cons: Website needs help and they need to start taking credit card
