Soft lighting, neutral tones on the walls, and black countertops and tables create a chic atmosphere at Miso. It's fitting for this popular Round Rock eatery, given that it serves gourmet Japanese and Korean cuisine to eagerly awaiting customers. Although its offerings are eclectic, chefs strongly emphasize seafood, so get ready to try something that's probably outside of your normal comfort zone at Miso.

Regular customers highly recommend the bulgogi, a stir fry that features Korean sweet or spicy sauce. Beef, pork, and chicken are all available, but the beef bulgogi gets the most love online. You can also enjoy beef as galbi, a dish of grilled and sliced beef ribs steeped in a sweet Korean sauce with onions. If you're interested in the inventive seafood creations, try the baby octopus salad with sweet potato noodles or the Miso mussels. Seafood cheese dukboki is another unusual eat, a dish of stir-fried rice cake with squid, shrimp, mussels, veggies, and mozzarella cheese drizzled in a sweet-spicy chili sauce.

Flix Brewhouse isn't really like any other theater-restaurant hybrid. Each of its locations (there are three throughout Texas) boasts its very own microbrewery in-house. So beers come fresh from the brew room, and you're welcome to sample any of them before deciding on just one. There are nine house-brewed beers available, plus 38 more on tap.

Order one as soon as you sit down in one of the stadium "dining rooms." A server will stroll up to grab your drink request, then step back and let you look over the menu. Pizzas, salads, burgers, and even tacos are offered, not to mention decadent desserts such as bourbon pecan pie and warm peach galettes. Dig into your food and sip your brews while you watch the first-run movie splashed across the screen. Flix Brewhouse enlists the most contemporary technology to ensure crystal clear picture and sound at every screening.
