Instead of just chips and salsa, the basket has both chips and chicharrons, and a bean dip as well. Generous amount, didn't run out, and tasted fresh. We had the Chile Rellano and white chicken enchiladas, pretty tasty and filling. Most of the food needed a touch of salt, and wasn't spicy. If you have to watch salt intake, or have issues with over spiced food, this would be a good option. Tea was served in mason jars, been a while since I've seen that. Plenty of parking space in downtown.

Great food. Great service…read more Everyone here is very nice and respectful the food gets here quick and the prices are pretty good for how this food tastes

We were passing through town and there was no other place to eat the Saturday before Easter. It was…read moreraining hard and I needed a break from driving. There was rain pouring through the ceiling I ordered Stuffed Poblano pepper. It was cold and greasy. Definitely when I ordered. There was a dusty Christmas tree decorated for Easter next to the register. I should have listened to my husband and waited for a bigger town. I honestly have no idea how this place is still open. If I could go negative stars I would.

This place is new in town. The town is flooded with Mexican food places. I have eaten here recently…read morearound 4 times and have not been disappointed a single time. The food is fresh, well seasoned and flavorful. Every time I eat I get stuck because it's so good I want to reorder the same meals. The Chicken Enchiladas Verde and the Hacienda Plate are amazing. My husband actually took leftovers home and ate them and in 20 years I have never seen him do this. Keep up the great work. Suggestions: switch to fresh made tortilla chips when you can and get the Margarita machine going

We have tried this place 2 times now. We just haven't found anything we really like. The beans and…read morerice were really cold like out of the refrigerator cold. The flautas weren't crispy. The tea was good and sweet though!

Has anyone ever asked you…read more "How would you like your tripas?" * * * I will admit, when I was asked that question at Taqueria Banda's I had no idea how to respond. I had to ask what the options were. The choices were "Soft, Medium and Crispy". I went with Crispy. I was having a Tripas Burrito. The burrito was absolutely positively marvelous. * * * Taqueria Bandas is an uncompromising Mexican-style Mexican restaurant. It draws a huge crowd. That crowd is overwhelmingly Mexican or Central American. On the Sunday I was passing through Rockdale, Lots of Mexican restaurants were open for almuerzo. The parking lot of Taqueria Bandas was packed. There was only a smattering of cars at the rival establishments. The knowledgeable crowd was clearly giving Taqueria Bandas a big thumbs up. * * * They don't offer tripas at most Mexican restaurants in Austin. I thought at first this might be because Rockdale is more Hispanic than Austin. A quick look at the population statistics showed the two cities are about the same. Rockdale has a slightly bigger percent Hispanic than Austin - but not by much. So if Rockdale has an uncompromising Mexican restaurant that can offer you choices on how you like your tripas, This is because Rockdale has at least one set of great entrepreneurs. The owners of Taqueria Bandas are doing a terrific job. * * * For what it is worth, Taqueria Bandas is also a fun place to hang out. I couldn't drink, although I would have liked to. (I had three hours of driving still ahead of me.) They did have a women's beach volleyball championship on TV. Your stereotypical Mexican restaurant TV show is Mexican or Spanish league soccer. Maybe American baseball or football - or in a few cases Spanish language music videos. The other TV had car racing. Actually, most of the patrons were watching the car racing. I was the only volleyball fan in the room. * * * Different menu items? Different preparation of those items? Different things to watch on TV? This is a distinctive, high personality establishment. The next time I pass through Rockdale, (and I have business that takes me up 79 now and then) Taqueria Bandas will be for me, a destination establishment. * * * Tip: If they ask you how you want your tripas, Say "Crispy".

YES they call 6 chips with cheese nachos.... if you want a waitress that acts like she doesn't wanna be here then please come here.

They didn't want to take back the food...lots of food places will take it back and give you what you want no questions asked. customer service was not good. Not happy will not be spending my money here again.... catfish was good though.
