Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe

One of Austin’s oldest family-owned operations until it closed in
December, the iconic lakeside haunt’s reopening Thursday under the
management team behind Austin Java and Texadelphia, with improvements like a garage
door that opens onto a new expansive waterfront deck, additional picnic
table seating, two exterior bars with full liquor license, and added
wait-service, because after driving all the way out there, you’re
certainly not walking for your food. Their between-the-bun
menu’s tossing in a new-style spicy black bean burger to augment the
likes of a 1/3lb farm-raised catfish sandwich and their “infamous”
2/3lb Scooter Burger — possibly a nod to that joke that sleeping with
fat girls is like riding a scooter, except now you’re the fat
girl. Taco plates include beef, chicken, and newly added fish, while
signature pizzas include the beefy Wakeboard (pepperoni, Canadian
bacon, Italian sausage), the Hydrilla (spinach, tomato, ‘shrooms,
onion, green pepper, black olives), and the classic-cheese Ozzie, named
after a neighborhood cat (as opposed to the Ozzy, topped with
neighborhood bat).

Since hanging lakeside without booze is
blasphemous, the revamp’s slinging domestic and Mexican beers, tbd
signature cocktails, as well as margaritas and Mexican martinis — the
legendarily smooth concoction that the next morning’s left so many
wishing someone would just come and bury them. – Thrillist
