Everything’s bigger in Texas, hopefully including your appetite! The Texas Hill County is full of delicious restaurants from bistro’s to BBQ. In the Hill Country you will find the best local eateries that incorporate home style cooking and a comforting ambience. Many of the towns throughout the Hill Country were settled by German immigrants which means a local favorite is the delicious and authentic German based cuisine you can find in New Braunfels and Fredericksburg.
