    Anyone who know me, knows that I'm a snob when it comes to Mexican food. I grew up in Mexico after all! So I had Fajita Pete's today for the first time. Went with the beef fajitas, boracho beans, flour tortillas and of course, margaritas. A+ on all of it! The fajitas were tender, moist and tasty. The tortillas were homemade. The boracho beans were good -- wish I had more of them. And the margaritas were excellent. This is a place I will be coming back to for sure! Thank you Fajita Pete's!!!

    Not enough for four people

    I was really excited for Fajita Pete's to open on Balcones, because it is on my way home from work, and I was looking forward to many easy pick-up meals in the future. So with great anticipation, I ordered the 4-person fajita pack for dinner tonight. The good - online ordering was easy, and my food was ready right on time. The bad - when I got home and opened the bag, I was totally taken aback by the tiny amount of food. A small flat container of protein, a 16 oz plastic container of rice, a 10 oz plastic container of beans, and an even smaller (maybe 10 oz container) of salsa, a pack of tortillas, and a huge bag of (cheap filler) chips. This was for FOUR people? With tax and tip, my total price came to $74. I'm generally not a complainer, but this was ridiculous. I called the store to ask whether or not they had given me the wrong order. They confirmed it was all correct. I told the manager (who was very polite and nice and was clearly trying to be helpful) that this wasn't right. After some discussion, he offered to refund my money if I brought the food back. So I got in my car and drove it all back, and got my money back. And then I drove directly to Taco Cabana and got their family fajita pack (slightly less protein, more beans, more rice, more tortillas, plus some fried onions/guac/cheese/pico (none of which Fajita Pete's includes) for $35. Literally less than 1/2 the cost. Plus I don't have to order ahead - just hit the drive through. I really can't comment on Fajita Pete's food at all. I didn't touch it. TLDR: Unbelievably overpriced for what you get. With so so so many other places in town to get great fajitas at a fair price - don't waste your money at Fajita Pete's.

    It doesn't taste bad but for the price the quality is maybe a little notch above Taco Cabana. Save a few bucks and just go there

    I used to eat at burrito places frequently, but honestly Fajita Pete's is better bang for your buck.

Arriba Abajo as you walked in just gave me all the vibes of a happening place when you want to hang out with friends and have a great time. We ordered the braised ribs rolled tacos for appetizers. It was so fresh and kicking' with all kinds of flavors. I wish I had ordered another one. The avocado sauce layered on the bottom was just enough to keep wanting more. For lunch I ordered the Carneasada Fajitas with chimichurri and my husband ordered the Carneasada Taqueria. With my fajitas came a side of frijoles, green rice & flour tortillas. Corn flour was the other option. Both meals came in pipin' hot & the smell coming from both was very aromatic, zesty & spice. Amazing taste, flavors, just the right amount of marinade on the Carneasada with a hint of lime. It was so delicious while enjoying the ambiance. Our server was a delight and took very good care of us. We didn't order any of their alcoholic beverages since we were both working, but definitely we will be back to enjoy more food and try out their beverages.

So we were thinking of tacos or Mexican food and my daughter suggested this spot as she had come here with some friends and really enjoyed their sopecitos. I had never had a sopecito! What is that! So we had to try... We were lucky to arrive at the right time (9 pm!) where we got their last table!! Make reservations or something because this is another one of those places that fills up! So- we were taken care of immediately: chips and some very hot salsas were set on the table while we chose. They menu is in QR code format, but we asked and got paper menus as well. Well I got the chicken sopecitos , my daughter got the pork ones and my partner got the meat tacos. Everything was delicious, the food arrived promptly, the portion size was perfect and bountiful and everything was super enjoyable. I really enjoyed trying some New Mexican favorites. Next time I will try some other delicacies since I always get tacos tacos burritos or quesadillas: time for some new items on the menu! Enjoy!

Music was so loud in the back room areas that you could not even have a conversation with others at your table. When I asked to have the music turned down, I was ignored.

    As a Texas native & Austinite, my boyfriend has been going to Fonda for years (they've been around…read moresince 1975 after all). I've only been once and it's definitely not gonna be the last time. In fact, we've got an upcoming reservation that's been on the books for quite sometime. They've managed to remain delicious, relevant and in demand 50 years! That's saying something. I'll tell you what that says...it says they rule! Reservations can be tricky to get but oh so worth it. The bar & atrium are fantastic and they boast a generous happy hour. The restaurant area and entire space are decorated wonderfully. Amazing artwork adorns the walls, they've got extensive art all about, vaulted ceilings and more. It's kind of like being in a hacienda. It feels like you're in Mexico. Truly. The restaurant and food are upscale without being pretentious. How refreshing! Speaking of refreshing...they've got cocktails and mocktails that will knock your socks off. I'm a big fan of the Nojito. My boyfriend loves the Mexican martini (it's primo). Let's talk about food. Wow-wee is it everything and then some. This is the kind of Tex-Mex flavor that sends your tastebuds into a tailspin of goodness! On our visit we did a salsa flight (we did 3 salsas), the queso (melted muenster and Oaxacan), Wagyu beef tacos, and chicken verde enchiladas. We did a spread like that in order to share everything. Food so good I'd give ten stars if I could. I can't put my finger on it but there's just something so special about the food, the taste of it, and the quality. It's just incredible flavor explosion bite after bite. If I had to guess, I'd say the food has been made with love, skill, and attention to detail all these years. Hence, their amazing reputation. Service is beyond compare. Hands down some of the best I've experienced in all of my worldly travels. Fonda San Miguel (Tzintzuntzan) is a dream come true!
