    two containers of pickled onions
    Frank T.

    It's not often I give a rating like this, especially when first time trying a place. I am amazed at the service considering all the high ratings I saw for this place. I assume it was people who did not order delivery. I would have given it 1 star if it were not for the quick response I received from their corporate office, and since the Favor delivery person is also to blame. I ordered a bunch of food for delivery on a quiet Thursday afternoon. My wife wanted to try this place, since our go to chicken delivery place had closed after 5 years of great food and service. I am listing in detail what we ordered for delivery, as I don't know how someone, either the order preparer or delivery person, or both, could not review the order and see how many things were MISSING! And yet, I was charged for the full order. We ordered the following and below is what we got: 1 x Whole Grilled Chicken (1 x $24.99) = $24.99 1 x Charro Beans Large received 1 x Corn Tortillas 10 pcs NOT received 1 x Flour Tortillas 10 pcs received 1 x Onion w/ Habanero Small received 1 x Cabbage w/ Jalapeños Small received 1 x Salsa Habanero Small NOT received 1 x Pico de Gallo Small NOT recieved We received the chicken, beans, and flour tortillas. No salsa, pico, or Corn tortillas. Plus they gave us rice. We did not order rice! When they say small for the Onion w/Habanero and Cabbage w/Jalapenos, they mean small. Not even a side. Chicken was ok. The grilled skin and flavor was good, but the meat dry, and the size, it looked like chicken on a diet of bread and water. 1 x Chicken Soup 1 x Chicken (1 x $10.49) = $10.49 1 x Corn Tortillas 5 pcs received 1 x Charro Beans Medium received 1 x Cabbage w/ Jalapeños Small NOT received My wife ordered the soup. She is a connoisseur of this type of soup, and the only thing she said made it bearable was the two large pieces of chicken in there. They could have at lease de-boned the chicken. WE ALSO ORDERED THE FOLLOWING ITEMS BELOW OF WHICH NOT A SINGLE ONE ARRIVED. HOW DO YOU MISS THIS? 1 x Stuffed Potato 1 x Mixed Meat (1 x $10.99) = $10.99 1 x 1/2 Carne Asada 1 x 1/2 Pastor 1 x Salsa Verde Small 1 x Add 1/4 Avocado (1 x $0.99) = $0.99 1 x Extra Toreado Jalapeno (1 x $0.39) = $0.39 1 x Regio Platter 1 x Carne Asada (1 x $14.99) = $14.99 1 x French Fries 1 x Flour Tortillas 5 pcs 1 x Salad 1 x Salsa Habanero Small 1 x Cheese Sauce Small 1 x Salad (1 x $2.69) = $2.69 1 x No Salsa 1 x Grilled Onions 1 x Large (1 x $2.35) = $2.35 1 x Jalapeño Pepper 1 x Pickled Jalapeno (1 x $0.39) = $0.39 1 x Jalapeño Pepper 1 x Toreado Pepper (1 x $0.39) = $0.39 1 x Guacamole 1 x Medium (1 x $4.38) = $4.38 SUBTOTAL $73.04 DELIVERY CHARGE $3.99 SERVICE CHARGE $3.00 TAX $6.02 TIP $5.00 TOTAL $91.05 I called the restaurant multiple times, each time receiving an answering machine stating they were busy, and then put on hold. After 10 seconds of music it automatically hung up. How classy. I called and texted the Favor driver and no response. I could not even call Favor as the order was through the restaurant, but they used Favor. I finally submitted a complainT online and someone called me and apologized continually. They wanted to reimburse me for just the items missing, but as you can see there was more than just that. I would expect a place like this to comp the entire order, but had to convince them to give me $40 credit, and even then I had to get the credit in their app. So, I guess I have to go back to this place. I will order next time dine in at the counter, and see if they can recover from this.

    Potato with beef

    I got the potato with beef. It was terrible. Nest wasn't fresh tasting, the potatoes were all chipped up the meat was diced finely, they were both swimming in fake butter and two types of fake cheese. I was sure it was not my order. The green salsa was disgusting and not at all what I was looking forward to. I should have gotten this dish at pollo loco down the street I would have enjoyed my meal and it would have been faster with better service.

    Pastor, asada, rice, beans, chips, and extras

    I have been to the Berkman location twice. Yesterday we purchased a family dinner. It was delicious! Included were pastor and asada (you can choose 1 or 2 meats) rice and beans both had good flavor chips were crunchy and perfectly seasoned salsas ( we liked the red but loved the green) Limes LOTS of corn tortillas ( wrapped in sets of 5) Onion- grilled and chopped Cilantro In a huge easy to transport box! Staff was so nice and helpful. Great news one of the nice ladies told me the Pflugerville location will open in two months! I almost forgot- the churros are ! Last time I also had barbacoa which was delicious!

    This company provides excellent service at an affordable price. The pina Agua Fresca was my favorite! The staff are professional, friendly, and loads of fun! You will not be disappointed.

    Good food, good service can never go wrong with their chicke. They even have Apple Pay which is good when you don't have money in hand. Fast customer service too.

    More than 10 people in 105 degrees

    Service is terrible, I made an online order and had to wait more than 30 minutes in the sun. They do not have any where covered to wait. The food is pretty good actually, I will not recommend this place to no one unless you want wait more then 40 minutes for a simple 1 entree order.

    Number 8 1/2 chicken special for $11!

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!

    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!
