So this review is coming from a HUGE FAN of enchiladas y mas! I've been coming here for the past 12 years easily! An amazing hidden gem of a restaurant, so when I say it hurts me to write this review truly it does! Me and my family come here to eat atleast 2-3 a month. Never had any issues. Ever. I ordered a fajita salad. I ate the guacamole on the outer side with the chips, and then started eating the salad all mixed together and noticed the meat was really cold. Like not cooked all the way. So I gave it the benefit of the doubt and took a few more bites, when I noticed the meat was just cold, I asked if there was a way to possibly re make the salad. I was told no because I had finished the whole salad already basically. I asked what could be done and they said they could bring me a fajita taco out so I could put some meat and mix it with the cold meat. By the actual owner. I was legit hurt because this is one of my favorite restaurants in Austin. Truly. I gave it 2 starts because I plan on giving it another chance, maybe she was having a bad day or something, but I was just in awe that they didn't want to do anything about it and told me nothing would be done since my whole salad was finished. read more

Enchiladas Y Mas - Salad Near Me - Austin, Texas

Love me some Y mas definitely the best hole in the wall Mexican food in Austin. Anything with the beef fajita I will leave a helpful tip though! If your party isn't complete, they will not seat you. Even if there's just 1 person missing. Our brother was trying to park (parking is tricky), I asked them if we could sit and she said fine.. but if he wasn't there in 5 min they'd have to split our table. Luckily he made it in time! Also, In the past they allowed you to order drinks while you wait, apparently not anymore. Which is a bummer when you have to wait.. even with no one in the waiting area. read more

Enchiladas Y Mas - Salad Near Me - Austin, Texas

I used to come here all the time. I would eat here as a source of good luck whenever I would apply for a job or go for an interview. If people owed me money I would also accept a meal at Enchiladas Y Mas. I almost cried when I heard that it closed during the pandemic, but am so glad that it opened up again. Now that I live in New Mexico it's hard to get Tex Mex Enchiladas and so, now, whenever I'm in Austin I go here and depending on how hungry I am I will either get 2 Beef Enchiladas or if I'm more hungry I'll get the Cunado Special. No matter what I order there, I always join the clean plate club! read more

People who dont like this place dont understand it. Just order a $6 margarita, eat the spicy salsa (reminds me of the old Jaime's by the Capitol), order cheese enchiladas and enjoy!!!! This is old school, authentic, unvarnished tex mex at its finest. The service is excellent, the decor is old school and no frills. It is cheap and cheerful. The chicken fajitas were a surprise; soft, warm excellent flour tortilla, tender, excellent flavored chicken with a distincting and good smoky flavor, guacamole is top notch old school, american cheese garnish as expected. You will never run out of water with these huge glasses. The guy next to ke orders and swears by the hashbrowns and french fries...next time will try read more

Went yesterday around 3pm and even though raining, found a parking spot in the lot not too far from the door which is rare. Consistently good food here. Ordered small margaritas which I guess for their locals during the week they spike them. We ordered Enchiladas Con Queso and Enchiladas Rancheras and a Flauta plate...we split the flautas, rice and beans. Everything we perfect, hot and flavorful. Great place to go but Uber in and out for best experience. I can see how this restaurant could expand and upgrade but without an expansion of their menu it wouldn't work. They need an ala carte selection, upgrade the 55+ menu, add some more items like charro beans, black beans, add specialty items like chiles poblano etc. They keep it simple here like they like it. We'll go elsewhere for finer dining- it's all about expectations. read more

At the end of pur meal the server asked us if he could bring us anything else, like a pillow. Yep. The margaritas are nice and strong, the cheese enchiladas are ooey-gooey. This place was a winner! I have no idea how these out-of-towners found this place but I am thrilled we did. It's the perfect mom and pop joint and it doesn't seem like a tourist trap... But how would I know after a margarita. We went on a Tuesday evening and the wait was 30 minutes... Even longer for the people lining up after us. Plan to wait but the wait it worth every rich, creamy, intoxicating bite or sip. read more

We've driven pass this establishment many times and there's always a crowd out front so we assumed this place would be great. Our waiter was unbelievably terrible. It took 5 requests to get lemons and straws for our water, my wife ordered tacos with beans n rice but only got tacos not once did he come back to check on us and than after he gives us the check I see him standing around talking with co workers etc for 10 minutes then he comes towards us and I'm thinking he's bringing my card back to sign but he pulls up a chair and starts talking to another customer. Needless to say he saw the look on my face and ran to go get my receipt. The tacos weren't any better than Taco Bell, the chicken in my enchiladas was tasteless the beans were dry and rice tasted and looked like ricearoni BUT the enchilada sauce was very good read more

This is the Platonic Form of Tex-Mex. It's the only place I know left in Austin where you can get Tex-Mex as it was in Austin 45 years ago. The salsa is fiery; the margaritas strong and delicious; the enchiladas piping hot, swimming in sauce, and, well, ethereal. I always order Enchiladas Rancheras, which are incredibly good, and I've never been disappointed. The other enchiladas and the combo dinners are also great. If you don't want a long wait, come before 5:30 or after 8. read more

It's the pinnacle of Tex Mex. Great margaritas and service. Highly recommended. Always worth the wait.

My favorite Mexican restaurant in Austin, Texas. It has become increasingly more popular over the years and for good reason. This place is a hidden gem and has some of the best Tex Mex food I've ever had. We always get the chips and queso to start. I could literally drink the queso by the gallon. It is so delicious, by far one of my favorite Quesos. Next, the fajitas. They have such a great smokey flavor and they don't skimp out in the meat. We got fajitas for two and we had plenty left over. We also got the cheese enchiladas which are drool worthy. Everything is made fresh and comes to you piping hot. I can't wait for my next dinner at EYM. It's heavenly. read more

Affordable and good! The place is Definitely not fancy. But the margaritas are delicious, and the queso is legit! Every time I've been by, there is a line out the door, so be prepared to wait. Servers are attentive and fast, they want to turn over tables and get people in and out, but they never make you feel rushed or like you're inconveniencing them or anything like that. read more

Always love the food here! They were able to accommodate our very large group (we called ahead). Delicious enchiladas, queso and the salsa is my fave! Someone in my group ordered a cheeseburger and it looked delicious. Someone else ordered migas and reported it was perfect. Authentic food, friendly service and a great time! read more

Expectations did not meet the product delivered. One thing they get right. The plates come out piping HOT. Very important in TexMex cuisine. Enchiladas were average at best. Not flavorful like El Phoenix or Enchiladas in North Texas area. Mind you these were just cheese with Ranchero sauce . Drinks were large, margs are potent. Batch salsa is okay but again not flavorful to my buds. They don't purée it, so it is chunky. Queso - just skip it. Its like melted velvetta. They use this same "cheese" but shredded on their tacos. Eek. Locales love it. The experiences they have yet to discover are still there for the taking , if they just take the step out the door. If the food was excellent then $25-30 per person would be acceptable. But the food is just not excellent. The reviews on this place are higher than One would expect. I would call this place a Motel 6 of TexMex. Enchiladas y Mal. Adios. read more

Super glad work brings me to this side of town on occasion. Love being able to get my enchilada fix! Their salsa sets my mouth on fire but it sure is good. They are always friendly and fast. It hasn't changed inside in years which is comforting to us who are seeing so much change in the city! read more

Awesome frozen margaritas. Warm chips. Salsa is homemade and temps change daily. Vegetarian options are limited but great. Friendly service. Nice happy hours. Parking can be a challenge at times. read more

Ugh. Sorry to write but they are adding auto gratuity to tables of THREE or more. Not 6 tops or 8 tops, tables of three. Thought you should know. Not sure why this makes me so angry, but it does read more

Absolute hidden gem in North Austin! Family owned and opporated - "EnchiMas" is a great spot to grab a bit to eat! From traditional Mexican dishes to traditional American bites - everything tastes great! Definitely try one of their signature margaritas!! read more

This is the perfect place to get a nice buzz on a budget. Drinks are smooth and tasteful and the staff is wonderful! I've been coming here since I was a kid and I rave to my friends to come try their margaritas and enchiladas. Some reviews may complain about wait times getting food/etc., but remember this is a mom and pop shop, so be kind. It's very very rare that you'll have to wait for food/drinks. Of course, this place gets very busy on the weekends. Everyone is so wonderful here, but if you happen to come across an Amy, Carmen, or Eva, say thank you and display a warm smile. These people are whole hearted and LOVE what they do! P.S. Trust me here... side order of chicken (or beef) fajita meat with all the veggies with melted cheese. Then choice of flour/corn tortilla. read more

Their margaritas are sooooo good! I love how they have a separate runner for drinks and a waitress for food. The only thing that sucks is the wait time and parking. read more

Y'all, this place is good. It's solid Tex Mex. If they're getting bad reviews it's service, not food related. This is a place you come for the frozen margs and the food, period. They are fast and always consistent here! Pretty much any day after 5pm is a wait, and potentially a long one. That tells you everything! Actually, don't come here... it's awful. Stay away ;). read more

Service was good and food was tasty. Nice little joint, it's worth a stop. Restaurant has a good ambiance and decor.

Service was prompt and courteous. Food was abhorrent, we went because it was on a list of great places to dine in Austin but the decor and food reminded me of a construction site food truck. queso came out cold, margaritas tasted like gas, and the taco meat was burnt yet somehow cold. Great place to eat for a college kid on a budget which is why i assume the reviews were so hi, but definitely not a place i would recommend. try el dorado cafe up the street for a cleaner dining experience read more

If you've not been just go! It's amazing. Service is great, food is amazing and prices are more than reasonable.

I could have done without the cockroach walking across the ceiling. This restaurant sure could use an exterminator and a major make over.

Usually get what's ordered, but went in to order 2 Beef Comida Mexicana dinners + 1 Beef Enchilada dinner. Reviewed the order as written, all OK. What I got was 2 orders correct, but the one Comida Mexicana plate was CHEESE! I paid extra for beef. Returned the next day--restaurant was closed, Tx Gas vehicle outside. Sign read Closed until further notice. When I returned with my receipt, owner would not listen/nor offer to replace just the beef enchiladas. She said, I needed to contact them same day. I tried but no answer. THIS IS NOT GOOD BUSINESS! After years I will no longer give them my business. Owner was very dismissive! read more

This place is popping during lunch time! Coming here on a weekday around noon gets you a 30 min wait and you see all sorts of people waiting to grab a plate of this legendary local establishment. I came with a friend who raves about this place and while it was enjoyable to be sure, I felt it was a-ok. Service is great, food comes quick, but flavor is just meh to me. Your meal starts with chips and salsa and that salsa has a kick. It's a slow burn but it also kicks the back of your throat once you start eating more of it. And as for entrees, everything is pretty affordable, especially the lunch specials and is definitely a lot of food. I got the carne guisada plate, which is tender chunks of stewed meat in gravy, a lot of refried beans and rice, with some flour tortillas if you want to make tacos. Like I said, it's plenty of food at a good price point, but I do feel the food is a bit on the bland side. Maybe I need to try enchiladas next time instead given the place has enchiladas in its name. read more

The food here is amazing!!! And so inexpensive. The beef fajitas are easily the best I've ever had & the cheese enchiladas were killer. They aren't lying about the margaritas being strong - get the top shelf one over the regular (still only $8 and was much better). Be aware: this is a complete hole in the wall! The atmosphere kind of sucks. It was not well air conditioned, and our waiter didn't provide a menu or even a QR code for a menu. Come here expecting a hole in the wall experience and you will be blown away by the food. read more

Family style Tex-Mex that is reliably good. I had the cheese enchilada plate, substituting red sauce for chili con carne. I needed comfort foods, and this plate did not disappoint. Salsa is quite spicy, which imho is the only way to go. So much food that i had a second meal the next day. Maybe it had something to do with me eating a basket of chips before our meal arrived. I do know the enchiladas were good on Day 2. I'll be back! read more

We came on a Sunday afternoon for take out and the place was packed! Parking lot totally full and people waiting in cars / outside for their to go orders. We went in to place an order to go and the hostess was really nice, it was our first time there and she made suggestions for the menu. We got the beef enchiladas with red sauce and chicken enchiladas with green sauce and a small side of Guac. They give complimentary chips and salsa even for to go orders! Randomly? Their enchilada plates come with extra tortillas on the side, you can choose corn or flour, we got one set of each. So the free chips and salsa are great, salsa was nice and spicy, chips were warm when they were bagged up. The side of guac was reallllyyyy small for the price but tasted fresh. Probably wouldn't order it again tho, it was half the size of the salsa container. The enchiladas were good, they weren't like amazing. They had a ton of cheese but not nearly enough sauce. We preferred the chicken and green sauce, maybe if the amount of sauce had been doubled they would have been outstanding. Rice and beans were solid. All in all it was a good experience but I'm not sure it was good enough to take top spot for our favorite hole in the wall Mexican in austin. read more

Enchiladas Y Mas - Beef fajita salad with extra cheese. - Salad Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great food and prices Just be ready always for a wait. Wish they'd open a second one.

This is one of our favorite restaurants for dining in, and we discovered tonight that they are just as delicious and generous with takeout orders. The margaritas were as strong as ever, and the food was still delicious. Because they are so generous with their food, after enjoying a fajita, I made myself a few nachos with the beans with melted cheese and guacamole which accompanied the mains. There are so many reasons why people love what has been an Austin legend for years. We're lucky we called in our order because there was a 45 minute wait for a table this evening. read more

Enchiladas Y Mas - Beef enchiladas w/rice & beans - Salad Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is our go-to Mexican restaurant in Austin. GREAT food and CHEAP drinks in a simple atmosphere. There is nothing special about the ambiance, but the food is so good and the prices are so reasonable that it doesn't matter that there's a drop ceiling and fluorescent lighting. The service is more than adequate and they treat you like family. We love this place for an inexpensive, yet high-quality, night out. read more

The service is amazing the chips and salsa are great. The chips are warm the salsa is spicy! We had the frozen margarita they were amazing .

Enchiladas Y Mas - a sign for a skinny cook - Salad Near Me - Austin, Texas

If there was an option to leave zero stars, that is what I would do. We show up at 8:30 on a Friday night because it shows they're open until nine. Why have a closing time if that's not when you truly close. I was told at the door that they were closed. I said it says you're open till 9;00 she said no we are closed now. And besides that who the hell closes at 9 pm on a Friday night. read more

What a great newish addition to Austin Texas Mex. The cheese enchiladas dinner was out of this world. Service fantastic and fun authentic environment read more

We got up and left after we waited for 30 minutes. We got a table for 5 so they put two tables together, after we sat the lady was trying to take a table from us cause it was busy. We were going to be left with no room for food. Tables too small, very small place. Our water also had flakes from the ice. Bad experience for us! read more

We have been coming to Enchilada's Y Mas for a couple of years now, I would typically order the beef enchiladas but the last time I got them they just weren't the same. Lately I have been getting the carne guisada and I love it!!! Strong margs never disappoint, Boyfriend loves their fajitas, they have a smoky flavor to them that you can't find other places. It's always fast to get our drinks once we are seated and chips and salsa hit the table quick! I'm leaving 4 stars because I was disappointed with our recent visit this past Tuesday. There was an automatic gratuity added to our receipt for our party of 2. Typically, I wouldn't mind had they told us before, since we have been here so many times I usually trust what's on there is correct and I ended up leaving over $20 tip after leaving my own on top of the gratuity I didn't see added. Not sure if this a new thing since we just dined here the week before and it wasn't the case, but just make sure to double check your tab! read more

It is not a fancy restaurant but I can say the food was actually good. The food really taste like Tex Mex, and the prices are not bad at all. They could do some improvements with the server they had, but I can't complain about the food. Everything taste very fresh and their guacamole portions were pretty big. The Fajita nachos are really good. read more
