Breakfast burrito haven. Homemade flour tortillas, everything is made to order. Always good to find a great small establishment like this. Salsa is homemade and perfectly completes the burritos. I will be back in the future! read more

Love their fideo, it's so comforting, reminds me of my childhood . Breakfast tacos are tasty and filling, tortillas are excellent. Had their cheese enchiladas recently and I can't complain. I work in the area, but I'm mostly working from home these days, once I'm back in the office, I'll definitely be trying other dishes there. read more

This place has AMAZING food!! It's ridiculous how delicious everything is. My absolute favorite thing, that I will one day happily OD on, are their migas burritos with red salsa. Their red and green salsas are equally delicious, but that red on those migas.. perfection! read more

This food was healing. We got the Al Pastor and the fish tacos. Both were delicious, fresh, and hot. We also tried the vanilla flan, it was 10/10. Excited to come back and try more (: read more

Found this hidden little place while in Austin. The food and service is great! The prices are some of the best in the area. There's not a lot of seating but we typically took ours to go. The tortillas are freshly homemade! Nothing fancy but the food is great. read more

Bro this spot is so cute and authentic! As a Mexican myself I truly enjoyed the tortillas. I had a burrito taco it was like my grandma made it no lie. read more

This place has potential to be a good Mexican restaurant. The environment is nice and cozy and I can see my family coming here every Saturday morning for breakfast. Wait...what they are not open on Saturdays? When you walk in, no one greets you, and there's no sense of direction on to order at the counter or be waited at the table. You have to order at the counter. I did see a couple came in and again no one greeted them. They sat at the table and waited for someone. They end up leaving the place. On with the food... I've ordered the Migas plate with a side of barbacoa. They ran out of potatoes and asked if I would like rice instead. I personally don't eat rice for breakfast, unless eating leftovers. The Migas were weak in flavor, skimping with the eggs and the cheese was not melted. The refried beans was not refried and was not completely smashed. Their flour tortilla was good, not many restaurants hand make their tortillas. I'm willing to come back, but not rushing it... read more

This is how authentic Mexican should taste. Everything seems to have been made from scratch and has just enough spice as to not trump the meats in the dish. I wanted to pour the salsa in my pocket and stuff the tortillas in my hat! The folks there are very friendly, love feedback, and want you to leave stuffed. Seriously, check this place out- you won't regret it. read more

La Cocina de Consuelo - Spinach & Mushroom Enchiladas with fideo ad refried beans - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was desperate for some authentic Mexican so after consulting yelp came across la Cocina de consuelo. We came for lunch, our server wasn't friendly at all but at least he was fast. We were seated quickly and orders was taken right away. So the food! Almost everything was under seasoned a bit but there was salt and pepper on the table and with a little salt added everything was delicious! Some of the best Mexican rice I've had in a very long time. I had a combo plate and they accidentally messed up my enchilada order so brought me additional enchiladas on the side which was great. The tortillas are amazing, so so so good. The chicken in the chicken taco was a little dry but still good flavor. I had thought $3.75 for a taco sounded a little ridiculous but the taco was massive. My boyfriend had the Sunday special which was the barbacoa -- it def needed salt, it wasn't very warm but once we added salt it was delicious. Overall the food could use some more seasoning (salt on the table worked fine) the service could be a little friendlier, but it was the exact hangover cure I was looking for. read more

I was searching for a place that serves chilaquiles, and Lord be hold, here I am. Great place and even greater people.

It breaks my heart to write a poor review for La cocina de Consuelo. I've been many times and the food and the help have always been great until today. Honestly, I'm struggling to explain the size of the gap between what happened today and my past experiences. Perhaps the ownership has changed, or perhaps some small emergency in the kitchen threw everything off. Let's start with the salsa--normally red hot and flavorful, but today is was flavorless and not nearly as spicy. Each of the dishes we ordered today was barely edible. Between the three of us, we were all profoundly disappointed with the quality. Burnt meat, lukewarm enchilada sauce out of a can, and a completely different tortilla soup. The food was many notches below the worst Mexican food I have ever had in Austin. Then there was the service. While no one was unfriendly, there was a clear level of incompetence. They came back after taking the order, because they forgot to ask key details. Then the tacos came without meat, and they plated the wrong type of beans on the other dish. They were very slow to refill drinks and chips, and the waitress had to come back to check that the credit card we gave them was from our table before running the bill. Wanted to provide constructive feedback. Please tell me this was an aberration and that there's hope that the restaurant can be great once again. read more

This place is a bit over priced and not authentic. I got the soup and taco combo for lunch. The soup was like chicken veggie soup with tortilla chips soaked in it. The taco was mostly cheese. I left here still hungry. Even though I eat a lot in general, you can't get full off a small taco filled with cheese and a small bowl of soup. I felt like I was eating American food. The chips and salsa were pretty good but that's about it. I definitely wouldn't be coming back. Their parking lot is tiny. If it's full and you went to the back, good luck turning around. The restaurant is tiny as well. read more

Been A VERY longtime since the last visit..After all we have to keep the adventure going!!...This run...I was solo, and it was for breakfast...I am a Huge Migas fan, and plan and simple..it was good...packed full of flavor, but when it comes to bang for you buck, portion seamed small, and only received on flour tortilla...one Large, burnt, stiff flour tortilla...for a $10 dollar bill including tip for breakfast seams step...customer service was decent...Not sure if I would venture there again for breakfast..for a $10 spot I could pack myself out somewhere close to home.. read more

My family ordered their enchilada dinner that fed 4-6 people and it was delicious. It was so easy and so yummy, and affordable for great food! We ordered a few days in advance and then drove up & got our food very quickly and smoothly. There were 5 of us and it was plenty. read more

Great food, great value, and kind staff. Breakfast burritos are delicious and the lunch specials are good too.

On the hunt for a good breakfast burrito in Austin, and drove by La Covina de Consuelo and saw a sign that's said breakfast burritos so I had to make the stop. I miss the breakfast burritos we had at the local taquerias back home, so I'm looking forward to finding a good fix here in Austin! I got "Johnny's" breakfast burrito which had eggs, refried beans, cheese, potatoes, and I added jalepeños. The burrito wasn't really stuffed like the breakfast burritos I'm used to, but the homemade tortilla was great! The fillings were a little on the bland side, but not intolerable by any means. Although their salsa was pretty damn good and helped balance the flavor that I was looking to get. I'll try a breakfast plate before I decide if I'd make this a place I'd consider going to regularly. read more

Very intimate dining location. I think its perfect for a date or double date. Friendly staff, also very helpful if viewing the menu for the first time. The food is wonderful, some of the best I've had in Austin. I can't agree more with Shelly about feeling that you're in someone's kitchen. I thought it would be awkward, but it was very nice. I really can't complain about anything apart from serving soda in a can/bottle (no free refills), but that is getting picky. I'm also lactose intolerant, which makes eating Mexican food slightly tricky sometimes. A lot of time I have to filter out the menu to 1 or 2 items and still ask for no cheese. This place is very tolerable and they have many different options. It's nice to see such a thorough menu for the tiny restaurant that La Cocina is. read more

I found my new Sunday brunch spot, and this is it. Have to say, hot damn! Their salsa has a serious kick to it, and one of the regular customers even commented that it was hotter than usual. I hope on subsequent visits they keep the level of 'hotness' up. Someone made the comment that the chips are bland, but that's fine with me since it would just get in the way of the incredible salsa. The huevos rancheros plate I ordered came out within 5 minutes along with two flour tortillas. These are best consumed while still hot because they harden up quite a bit if they sit for too long. The re-fried beans were standard fare and the eggs cooked just the way I like them. This plate is nearly identical to one served over at La Guadalupana Bakery and Cafe in Houston, which means it is excellent. I like the fact this place is busy, but not so busy you can't get your food fix quickly. read more

Little inconspicuous spot serving some of the best Tex mex in town. Their flour tortillas are the freshest I've seen in Austin. The chicken Monterrey is my go-to... but be warned because it's blazing hot. Like torchys diablo levels of hot. It's small on the inside and parking is limited so I always order takeout. They're so nice here and are happy to modify whatever you ask for. Breakfast is equally delicious here. You can't go wrong with whatever you get. read more

Perfect, little cozy place! Felt right at home. The breakfast was truly authentic, just like my mom's. And the service was phenomenal as well! read more

Hubby and I come here from time to time. I like their food, but I found the menu to be a bit limited, so I don't come here often as I get bored fast eating the same thing. Everything I had here had been good. I had Pollo ala Monterey the last time I came here. It was darn good and spicy. Usually, other places have their verde sauce really mild. La Cocina's verde sauce had a kick. My favorite side is always the mango/jicama salad. Hubby let me had a taste of the cactus salad. It's good but not for me. :-) On our last visit, we dragged our two kids here for dinner. It turned out they thought this place was cool, decent food and bright colors everywhere. They gave their thumbs up. read more

Above average tex mex, but not by a huge amount. A cute, cozy ambiance in an otherwise-mostly-residential neighborhood gives it a bit of an edge, but not enough for me to make it a regular in my line up. I came on a Wednesday to get the mole and it was really only OK. Admittedly, OK mole is still really yummy, but I've come to expect more from places in Austin since you can get such good mole if you look. For example, Hecho en Mexico in South Austin and the (admittedly more expensive) Fonda San Miguel that's just around the corner. My wife got a more standard plate of enchiladas and they were also fine, but nothing to write home about. In a city littered with great tex mex, this place felt more run of the mill than exiting, which is too bad because it's right around the corner from home and feels like it could be a great neighborhood establishment. read more

Love this place! It was recommended by a friend and they never disappoint. The restaurant is small, but we've never had to wait very long to be seated. We have been there for breakfast and lunch and have always loved what we ordered. My favorite plates are the enchiladas with ancho chile sauce, the chile relleno plate and their chilaquiles. Their homemade tortillas are delicious. I just wish I lived a little closer so that I could go more often. read more

Ok... wow. Maybe I was hungry when eating this food or maybe the food was just THAT good. (I think the latter). I got the combo plate with the chicken enchiladas. I had a bite of my husband's burrito. The food is out of this world.The only thing that I'm upset about it that we didn't order more so we won't have leftovers to look forward to. read more

I love this lil spot. I have always wondered about it driving by. I'm glad I walked into this cocina in Rosewood for what I call a true Mexican cuisine experience. It's more authentic than Tex Mex and their fresca ingredients set it apart from other area spots. The tortillas are homemade as is their salsas- in true Mexican food tradition that's where it starts. The breakfast taco I ordered was piping hot and fresh and even after it sat for 20 minutes it was still warm! They had chili rellenos as their lunch special so they let prepay for it and pick it up at 6p when I got off work so I could have it for dinner! No one else on earth would let me do that. It was as delish as the chorizo and egg breakfast taco I had for breakfast. It was lightly battered and not greasy. Their rice was so yummy and the beans tasted slow cooked. If you like fresh ingredients and real authentic Mexican food made by an abuelita this is your new spot. read more

Best. Tortillas. EVER! I'm a tortilla snob, and I ding Tex-Mex joints for not serving handmade tortillas with their meals. La Cocina literally has a grandma in the back who makes them by hand, as they should be, and she's got a recipe that would make my grandma celosa! Of course this isn't the only reason why I come to La Cocina de Consuelo, but it definitely makes the meal that much more authentic to know that an abuelita is back in the kitchen hand flapping Mexican goodness. But I digress. I ordered migas, as I usually do at most Tex-Mex joints, and Consuelo's was very good yet unique. I say this because the fried corn tortillas were cut in strips and not in squares or triangles, and Consuelo also adds some hearty and flavorful peppers and salsa to really bring out the taste of this Tex-Mex staple. Add a side of charro beans, pappas fritas cut in strips with café con leche and I took a brief trip back in time to my abuela's house out in the rancho. read more

I came here about a month ago, and my experience was far worse than I ever expected or I thought could happen. I used to come here often and was always taken care of by the owner's family member, and our service was always phenomenal. We came on a weeknight and took a long time to get greeted. Finally, our server (that I never have seen there before) sat us and left without seeing if we wanted anything to drink. When she finally came back, we ordered water and queso right away. It took almost 15 minutes for us to get our water, and another ten min or so queso. After waiting another 15 minutes for the server to come back to take our order, we just asked for the check and then left. Not to mention, there was a table sitting outside that she kept forgetting about. I totally understand being in the weeds while serving at a tiny place and being the only server, but she wasn't that friendly at all, seemed too stressed out, and she could've been vocal about being busy. A little more attentiveness and communication goes a long way. Sadly, I don't know if I will ever be returning to eat here any time soon. read more
