Iguana is the home of “Lake Mex” cuisine, and site of perhaps the best sunset view overlooking Lake Travis. Great deck with umbrella-covered tables to block the sun on those toasty days, and chilly AC inside. Medium-priced menu featuring most of the standards, but the flautas and the sauces really stand out. The flautas are a much lighter version than the standard; they are rolled in corn tortillas, then grilled, instead of fried. Fabulous margaritas and beer selection to go with the killer view.
