    I wish I could give them a negative. Their phones are always off the hook. Like wtf. This place needs a new manager or owner. Freaking horrible. Always missing items or food is so greasy.

    Food: Great! The chips & salsa were great. The salsa had a smoky flavor that made it addictive, and the chips were great. The tacos were delicious as well. What's cool is that you can order tacos individually or order a plate combo that comes with rice & beans (which were tasty as well). The Crema Enchiladas were great too. No complaints. We had the El Vampiro & the Mangonada drinks. I don't think the El Vampiro paired well with the meals, but it was still good! The Service: our waitress was friendly. She kind of disappeared near the end of our meal when it came to check out. I'm not sure what happened there. We were still greeted by another individual who helped us check out. Ambiance: the restaurant seemed a bit small when you walked inside, but the tables were very roomy, and it looks like they can host bigger tables if needed. The artwork around the restaurant was also a nice touch. I love that it's family-owned. I'd come back here again. Definitely recommend!

    Frozen margaritas are a great option here especially during hot weather days. Ambiance is not fine dining and very casual. Outdoor areas had misters. I got service quickly and bar had plenty of room and tvs. Food was good but not great. Chicken was tender but there wasn't much flavor too it, their sauces helped add the flavor. Chips and salsa was Doritos and salsa and just not the same when hot out of the fryer chips. Service was great and with a smile. This is a casual place for me as it's close by.

    It is a small, neighborhood restaurant. Try the enchilada bandera. Also recommend the mojito margarita.

    I'm a little confused by the low star reviews for this place. Transparently, if you're walking into…read morehere expecting to be in a high end Mexican restaurant, you are going to be disappointed. This is a solid hole in the wall. You get exactly what you expect when you go in. The food is solid. The drinks are solid. Nothing is going to blow you away! The wait staff is friendly, but be patient, there are only a handful of folks working at any given time. They have happy hour EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. FROM 12-7. Like... where else are you getting that in Austin? Margs for $3.99?! Sign me up! I'll be back, and best believe it'll be between 12-7

    This place is located in a mini strip center right next to Dave's ultimate automotive. On the other…read moreside is a nail spot and Foganero Argentine restaurant. In case you're getting your car worked on like I was, you can always stop in here for breakfast or lunch. They also have a full bar in case your repair bill exceeded your savings account. I kept my order pretty simple with just a couple of breakfast tacos, and a glass of orange juice which was much larger than I expected. I like the fact that it came with a small fresh carafe of salsa and green sauce. There's well over a dozen tables to sit at and cajunto music playing overhead. They do offer DoorDash, but it's always best to dine in. My 2 tacos and very large orange juice with tax came out to nine dollars. You just can't beat that deal which earns them five stars. Informative photos included.

    Good flavor but really lacking on the actual meats portion.
