Good food and service. Neighborhood vibes, slow and low. Unable to say enough good things about this South Austin gem. read more

They just can't seem to get down how to do "extra crispy bacon" and I don't want to eat chewy fat chunks lol ! The pics are from two separate experiences. Their service over the years has really gone downhill with the cooking (the waitresses are great), the tacos are smaller and they dont make them correctly a lot of the time. Sad bc I really have enjoyed it here before ! read more

Service was quick and friendly, we started with chips and salsa (decent) and our entrees came out quite quickly. PIPING hot! Both got chicken enchiladas with cheese sauce, with rice and beans. In a Friday night the place was pretty poppin. Last time we came on a week night and it was fairly quiet. Only complaint is that I got soda and both visits it was totally flat. Just get water instead read more

Seriously the food was terrible. I just ate it because I was hungry. Wow 4 stars, don't believe that wacky lie

Wonderful food, outstanding service and the frozen margaritas are so cold you'll need iced water to relieve the brain freeze. TexMex cuisine that reminds you of your tias and abuelas. Corn tortillas that make you cry. A can't miss in South Austin. read more

One of my favorite Tex Mex places, ever! Breakfast, lunch, dinner, it's all great! Incredible service and the food is always fresh and piping hot! Today I ordered the Tampiqueño plate, one of my favorites. I asked for chicken mole enchiladas instead of the chicken enchiladas in tomatillo sauce. I'm so full! read more

I went here for lunch because I had never been here before and I was curious. I ordered puffy chicken tacos with rice and beans. The service was fine and the food was served promptly. The chips and salsa were good. I also got a TopoChico with a slice of lime, which was good. The puffy chicken tacos Were very oily, so oily that they made me feel ill all day. The air conditioner was broken, which was not their fault, and they made us aware of that, but that was uncomfortable also. The rating of 2 that I have given this restaurant is because of the Taste of the puffy tacos, rice and beans and the ill feeling they gave me for the rest of the day . My husband got fajitas and he also felt ill all day. we both laid around all day after lunch because we didn't feel good. We both felt fine before lunch. I won't be back, read more

First time here decided to have Mexican food for lunch and decided in this cute place. Busy restaurant which means great food and it was just that Husband got the shrimp enchiladas w/tomatillo and he was amazed how tasty it was had the right blend of salt and tart from the tomatillos, shrimp was cooked perfectly- it was so good he brought it up 4 hrs later I got the carnitas plate the rice and beans so tasty I was disappointed with the carnitas it was so dry I think it was the way it was cut into cubes- will not be ordering carnitas again The standout was the chips and tortilla's it was the best read more

Best migas in Austin!! Always busy, great service been at the same location for 20+ years.

We sat down to eat as we were conversating....a cockroach decided to walk on our table. We told the waitress and the staff moved us to another table. We have already ordered...Food was not satisfactory..FOOD WAS COLD and .tortillas were hard and old. I would not recommend this place. Customer satisfaction doesn't matter to these restaurants any more... read more

Everything about this place is amazing! The food is great, the prices are great and the service is excellent

Great chicken enchilada and beef fajitas. Generous portions for the price. Even the virgin margarita was good. Service was attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is not fancy, but it's exactly what you want a TexMex restaurant to be. 1 virgin drink, 1 NA beer, 1 enchilada plate, + 1 beef fajita plate = $48 and we walked away with over half of the food in leftovers. Plus the tunes were bumpin. read more

This bar has a fantastic neighborhood vibe, and I always enjoy the atmosphere when I visit. The food is decent, but unfortunately, the margarita mix they use upsets my stomach each time. read more

Nice place with lots of friendly servers, we were driving around when my wife was asking me for a coffee since Starbucks is in the same shopping center, I told her what about to go into this place? And she was sure let's try it. The place is nice and clean and the atmosphere is great, the servers Melanie and Isabel were the best with suggestions. Great food and drinks. No need to drive to San Antonio anymore for food like this. I can't wait to go back to this place. read more

This is our favorite Tex-mex place in the neighborhood. Delicious tacos, combination plates, enchiladas and more. Excellent margaritas and friendly staff! It's just a great, family friendly place with delicious food. What more could you want? read more

La Posada is a hidden Tex mex gem in the south Austin community. The menu is vast as is their drink selection and the portions are incredibly huge! I especially looove their chips and house salsa. Their salsa has a little bit of heat to it which is nice. The food is really good, but with their combination plates everything seems to taste all the same. Unless you get green chicken enchiladas, mole, or tamales. The drinks are crazy good for the price, I have to be careful! Service can be slow when they're super busy. I don't think they're short staffed per say, more it just depends on who your server is. However they're all super nice and sweet. This is a pretty affordable bang for your buck kind of Tex mex restaurant. read more

Surprised we just heard about this place, considering they've been in business for over 25+ years! Had an absolutely delicious dinner. They are shortstaffed, so there may be a bit of a wait, but totally worth it. Even though they were busy, the staff was very friendly and served us warm chips and delicious (and spicy!) salsa to start. The frozen margaritas are now one of my favorites in the city. Definitely recommend the Avocado Relleno--it was deliciously seasoned and the chicken was very tender. Can't wait to go back! read more

Easily one of our favorite new Tex Mex spots in Austin. We were randomly south yesterday to take our daughter roller skating and just found this place on Google and took a leap of faith to go and check it out. So glad we did! It's in a stip mall but still manages to have a mom-and-pop no frills ambience that we enjoy (although three TVs in the dining space?? Ugh). Margaritas, frozen and rocks, are excellent because they're not cloying and they are strong and it's nice that you can get the big ones...! Complimentary salsa is spicy and fresh-tasting. We also got the "Cindy's Queso" with black beans and avocado, and just: yum. For mains, our daughter got her standard cheese quesadilla plate, but the tortilla was toasted nicely and there was a good amount of cheese in it, as well as beans and rice on the sides. The pollo caldo was delicious: so hot with plenty of veggies and chicken, and positively showered with cilantro. Yes, it needed a bit of salt, but no complaints, and the corn tortillas on the side felt homemade. The avocado relleno was a unique spin. We got it with steak, which wasn't the best we've ever had, but the dish was good overall, and they are using a different kind of rice than the standard stuff you see about town (it's better here). Our server was not the warmest person but she was super efficient and everything came out hot. La Posada is pricier than most places of its ilk around Austin, but we feel that the quality was there and as though we've found a hidden gem in Austin. We would definitely make the drive across town to go back. Four enthusiastic stars! read more

This place is great, especially for the price. Whenever we want Tex-mex, this is our go-to spot. Their margarita was decent and we've liked everything we have ordered so far. My favorite is the burrito plate with shredded chicken. The burrito is huge, enough to take half of it home. It's packed to the brim with seasoned shredded chicken and covered in a red sauce with a hint of spice and cheese. It's also served with salad and rice. We last visited on a Friday evening so it was packed. We only had to wait about 20 minutes for a table because the employees are always quick to clean tables and get everyone seated. I was surprised we didn't have to wait long for our food either. Im sure we'll be back! read more

I've been eating here for over a decade. I should have done a five star review way before now. Consistently delicious. Family owned. Great service. Ambience is friendly not too noisy.. able to actually enjoy conversation with your meal partner. Absolutely delicious food. Great frozen margaritas. My faves are the chalupas ... the best in Austin. The caldo de pollo is chicken broth based instead of tomto based. A winner every time. Competitive pricing. Great parking. I highly recommend La Posada in a shopping mall on Westgate and William Cannon. The tres leches cake is out of this world read more

I struggle with this review because I can't decide between 3 or 4. The service was extremely slow and poor. They seem so disorganized. It took forever to place a drink order than another wait to place food order. Now onto the food...I got the carne guisada plate and it was extremely disappointing and bland. It's my second time ordering this dish in general and I had great luck at cruzteca and that's why I ordered it here. Do not order this. However, they had great salsa and my boyfriend ordered the super combo that came with an enchilada with their sauce. THAT was amazing and we both want to come back just for the enchilada. I just don't know if we would be willing to endure the poor customer service. read more

Ol' Skool Tex-Mex. The kind where the plate comes to the table at 300 degrees. Food is good. Service is sweet but a little slow. Chips are from a bag and salsa is kinda bland. Nice prices. read more

I discovered this south Austin gem through a Nextdoor thread talking about favorite Tex-Mex joints in Austin. I'd never heard of it but peoples' comments were great and merited a trip from the northwest to give it a shot. It's a wonderful neighborhood place with very friendly service and yummy food. We were welcomed and treated like regulars. Tea glass and coffee cup never got more than half empty. I had the migas because of great reviews here on Yelp and I wasn't a bit disappointed. They normally come with bell peppers but I substituted serranos and loved it. I'll be back, even with the long drive to get there. read more

they were very rude disrespectful right when we walked in the door just because our dog was riding in a basket on my friends electric scooter. They said seeing eye dog has to be on the floor on a leash the whole staff and the manager was very disrespectful too. Even when we left, they were very disrespectful starting yelling at us for no reason at all and the food wasn't even that good anyway never going back there again. Well, she's not a seeing eye dog she's a service dog and she they said all service dogs has to be on a leash on the floor so they can go under the table. I never been so disrespected in my life at a restaurant. read more

We go here all the time for breakfast and lunch. The food is always awesome and the service is pretty good too!

Tonight we went here for dinner after not coming here in years. Combination Plates one with crispy beef taco bean toastda rice bean and cheese enchiladas. And beef taco guacamole rice beans and queso. All was hot fresh and tasty and a good price they were busy but we were waited on quickly and had great service. We will be back for sure. read more

Experience was better than last time. Interior was clean, no trash. 4 stars for interior. For service, only took 20 minutes to receive the food for all 7 of us, and staff was friendly. 4.5 stars for service For the food, the tacos were delicious, fresh, and juicy. The beans and rice were also great, but can make me feel gassy. 4.5 stars for food. Overall rating: 4.3 stars read more

Well normally we have a great experience, but today was a bad experience, one of the ladies there working spraying freebreeze while everyone is trying to enjoy their Friday and eating their food all you can was taste the freebeeze, it sucked!!!!! read more

Unfortunately I'm providing a negative review on a to-go order of their Chicken Verde Dinner. After eating this meal I contracted food poisoning. I consumed this dish last Saturday September 24th 2022. My thinking is the chicken was either contaminated, undercooked, or spoiled. I typically order their lunch dishes and enjoy their chicken & beef fajita tacos . These meals have been delicious. Also, their frozen margaritas are a local favorite. I'm going to take a break from La Posada for the time being. The wait staff has always been friendly. My critique is with the cook on this specific entree. Consumer Beware! read more

La Posada Mexican Restaurant - This is the entree to AVOID at La Posada. Food poisoning at you're own RISK! - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great TexMex spot! Very friendly and efficient service (Mel is wonderful), the food and margaritas are fantastic! My only complaint is the air quality in the main dining room. I've noticed every time the HVAC system runs my husband and many of the other patrons start coughing and sneezing. I suspect the air ducts need a good cleaning. I'm really hoping the management reads this review and remedies the situation. I will wholeheartedly upgrade my review to 5+ stars! read more

Missing this neighborhood TexMex weekly hangout and their Spinach Enchiladas. I'd move back for this.

Our first visit to La Posada was a bustling one, for sure a beloved choice among the locals. The prices are reasonable, service commendable, and the food satisfying. We are certainly planning a return visit. Kudos! read more

Very unassuming look from the outside. Turns out the place has been around for over 20 years! For starters, chips came out nice and warm and the salsa was great (bit on the spicy side) The carne guisada was awesome and comes with either corn or flour tortillas. Would highly recommend getting this dish! One of the best parts were their margaritas. Nicely frozen with a good kick to them, looking forward to dropping in for some more of these. Overall simple little place that has great food and drinks! read more

4.5 stars. This was our first tex-mex meal during our texas trip. The menu was varied and prices were great. Server ladies were also super sweet and attentive. We had the pork chop dish and combo #2. Everything was good, except the ground beef in the taco could have used a bit more seasoning. We also started with a chile con queso - for some reason we were expecting something with a slight more spicy kick to it, but this just seemed like melted cheese sauce. This is our first "real" queso, so maybe our expectations were misplaced. Still tasty though. The complimentary salsa was more spicy than I was used to though! We also added on a pastor taco, the meat was flavorful and I tasted the slight pineapple flavor. For me the standout was the tres leches cake. The perfect amount of sweetness and milk-soaked cake. I wish I could take some back to NY with me! read more
