I completely know what McKracken is talking about! Austin is a great city and places like Gueros are contributing factors to the vibe here. If you go to Gueros, granted you're going to get your menus from the Hispanic dude dressed like an emo chick, you'll order your over-priced sh*tty Margarita from a moody server, and probably rub elbows with some movie star on your way in... who cares... I've been there when Quentin Tarrantino was there and let me tell you--what a douche. He was obnoxiously loud and careless about the other PEOPLE in the vicinity. It really was distracting and inconsiderate. And to conclude, what PEOPLE need to remember is that this is Austin not LA and whether you're Ashton Kutcher or Paris Hilton, when you're in Austin, do as the Austinites do and just be cool. No one's going to come up and ask you for your autograph, a handshake, or kisses for their newborn--get used to it. You don't need to make your presence obvious to anyone here because we just don't care.
Pros: It has an old town feel, great food, and typical moody austinites serving you.
Cons: Losers like Quentin Tarrantino and crying babies go there and ruin for everyone
