    Word of mouth brought us here, and we weren't disappointed. The breakfast tacos were large and filled well with eggs and my requested vegetables. The tortillas were very soft. The beef tacos had crunchy shells, well flavored beef, and a generous portion of cheese, as requested. The salsa had a nice burn, and the chips were tasty. Service was solid. Our server didn't hover, but our drinks remained full.

    Number 1 - chile relleno and enchilada
    Daphne M.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this place but honestly the best places are a surprise. I loved the chile relleno. Perfection. Light on the batter so you could taste chile and not just the batter. The rice was unimpressive but the beans were good! Servers were so friendly too!

    We dined in for dinner on a Saturday evening. Service was great! Our server was attentive and provided a pleasant experience for me and my partner. It's a very laid back eatery. Food itself was good but I can't give them my stamp for best enchiladas, I felt the meat and sauce could still use more vibrant flavors. We also got fajitas chicken quesadillas and the fried ice cream which I really enjoyed. I am curious about their breakfast options so I may return but try something different.

    The two of us came here because of their very good reviews, and the fact that they have a happy hour from 3-7, which we couldn't pass up. Just understand that happy hour means one dollar off the drink. Inside there is at least 15 tables to sit at along with 5 two person booths. They start you off with their complementary chips and freshly made salsa which has a nice kick to it. They do have three beers on tap along with frozen margaritas, but not much in the way of craft beer. I decided on the large frozen margarita, and I have to admit it definitely had a kick. I decided on a beef fajita burrito, which was a perfect Tex-Mex experience. My guest polished off every single one of her black bean and cheese nachos. I have to admit this place gives Chuy's and Baby A's a run for the money. Definitely a place I'd come back to. Informative photos included.

    Large Queso Compuesto
    Michelle E.

    Ramos is my FAVORITE place to go for Tex-Mex! They have unbeatable prices, delicious food, sizable portions, and fantastic hospitality... what's not to love?! FAST FACTS: * Parking: located in a shopping center so there's plenty of parking available in the lot in front of the building * Online ordering: available for pickup at the restaurant * Delivery: available through third-party * Complimentary chips and salsa are served as soon as you sit down * They serve all-day breakfast! SERVICE - I've been to Ramos at least a dozen times and have always had amazing service! Even when they're busy, the servers constantly make sure you have drinks, chips, and everything else you need. The workers are friendly, accommodating, and make you feel like family. It makes a great food experience that much better! PRICING - Incredibly reasonable for the amount of food you get! The total for a large queso compuesto, combination #2 plate, combination #3 plate, Chipotle shrimp plate, and flan was $62.21 after tax and the portion sizes are HUGE! CHIPS AND SALSA (9/10) - Come prepared to eat your body weight in chips because they're that good! These are served complimentary when you sit down and they'll keep bringing them to you if you ask!The chips are the perfect thickness (no one likes a thin chip that breaks the second you dip it in salsa) and have a nice amount of salt. They're crispy and addictive in the best way! They are served with a red salsa and a jalapeño ranch... both of which are delicious with a slight kick! QUESO COMPUESTO (10/10) - It's a big bowl of cheese with pico, guac, and ground beef... aka it's amazing! I get this every time and always recommend it to others. If any of your entrees come with rice, pour some of this on top and thank me later! COMBINATION #2 (10/10) - This is always my go-to because you get to try so many different things! You get 2 cheese enchiladas with tex-mex sauce, 2 chicken flautas, one soft or crispy taco, and sour cream. It also comes with rice and your choice of beans and everything is delicious! COMBINATION #3 (9/10) - This one is for the enchilada lovers! Each enchilada has a different filling and is topped with a different sauce so it's a flavor explosion! This also comes with rice and your choice of beans. CHIPOTLE SHRIMP PLATE (10/10) - This is almost like a fajita on a plate (which is obviously a compliment). The shrimp are a good size and are tossed with the onion, bell peppers, and chipotles in adobo sauce which pack that delicious sweet and smoky flavor with a little heat. It's served over rice with a side of beans, lettuce, pico, and fresh avocado. This was my first time ordering this dish and I'll definitely get it again! HOMEMADE FLAN (9/10) - Yum! It's super sweet and decadent while also being light at the same time. It's a great sweet end to an already tasty meal! Ramos is one of the best kept secrets in North Austin! Be prepared... once you visit once, it will be the only place you want to visit for Tex-Mex!

    My MIL brought my husband and I here for breakfast Sunday morning. Everything was amazing! Their chips and salsa and creamy jalapeño remind me of chews which was fabulous. My only drawback was it was $50 plus tip for three people to eat on a Sunday morning.

    Chile Con Queso
    Vanessa G.

    I ordered this on DoorDash & it was really good! It was still crispy and fresh when it arrived at my house. The flavor was good and on point with everything. I can't wait to come sit in person & try it out. The Chili con Queso was my favorite

    House Mexican martini
    Britt Z.

    Yay!!! I have finally found a tex mex spot in north Austin that does it right! Cheese enchiladas were on point! I haven't had enchiladas in over 7 months and these were definitely worth the extra calories. Also, I learned they have breakfast all day! Which is great for people like me that want a huevos ranchero plate at 2:16pm We also tried the house Mexican martini. It definitely packed a punch! The service was great! Our food came out so fast and piping hot! I will definitely circle back by to try the breakfast menu items along with one of the many varieties of blended margaritas!

    So far these chips are so good
    Antonia M.

    The food and service is really good. They almost did not honor the 15 percent discount offered on Yelp when i went up to pay, so careful if you expect a discount and dont get it. They did give it to me after I explained what it was for, but said they didn't know anything about it and would only do the discount this one time.

    Lunchtime
    Ashley M.

    Service was great and accommodating. The food was bomb! I had the stuffed avocado which was absolutely delicious!! I used to get this at Gringos in Houston before they took it off the menu for some strange reason; theirs was stuffed with ground beef and cheese tho. The chicken was PERFECT! Tasted like it was freshly fried, I swear it tasted like they deboned a breast from KFC lol .... Not the rice was cool; but the churro beans were undercooked and could've used more seasoning it was more watery than soupy which was disappointing, after I added the salsa that came with our chips it was edible. Overall we enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back!!

We absolutely recommend coming here and getting fajitas or enchiladas or Barbacoa quesadillas maybe all of the above if you bring enough people because it's all delicious! The restaurant itself is very well kept and clean. It does get a little bit loud, but that's only because it's always packed to the doors. Mama Betty's has a really fun outdoor patio space and always has great music playing. It's an awesome establishment to bring families kids Little League teams, office meetings whatever you want you won't disappoint anybody you bring. No matter who we have gotten as far as the wait staff they have all been extremely friendly, kind and helpful when it came to choosing something on the menu--everybody here has a wonderful and warm personality. They really have put together a home run of a restaurant and I hope that they stay around for a long time. Last, but not least the drinks are outstanding, and everything is very competitively and fairly priced. If you haven't tried it and are worried about it being packed come during the weekday at lunch.

    Went on Sunday after Easter service because we were craving something a friend brought us during a…read morerecent meal train but felt it a bit lacking. First, the menu needs a rewrite for content and clarity. For example, buying fajitas doesn't list guacamole and based on size, single, for two and family you get more sides of rice or beans. There's no definition of how much actual meat you get and our server couldn't provide that information beyond a rough estimate. Second, the fajitas we got of family size and for two portions for 7 were not consistently cooked. We asked for medium rare and got about 25% at that with the ones in the center at a more well done. Again, the multiple tiny sides were more obnoxious than anything as it's legit beans and rice unless you want to upcharge. The cilantro lime rice tastes like nothing so skip that and go for abuelita rice which has a hint of flavor. Overall, the butter/gravy that go on the fajitas is the real winner but again a menu where you overbuy and misunderstand (that doesn't even list extras like guacamole or a simple small queso) was beyond frustrating. I would stick to them for one to possibly get a better cook.

They were great and I immediately crushed them all. I thought their rice and beans were pretty good as well and a step above the typical TexMex rice and beans. The server was pretty attentive throughout our whole visit, and I honestly have no complaints about what they had to offer. Pricing on the meal and drinks was pretty standard for Austin, and I didn't think anything really took me out of the experience. On top of that, for being in Barton Springs, there is quite a bit of parking. I would love to come back at some point in the future and hang out on their rooftop bar because that seems like a lot of fun. Shoutout to El Alma for being a TexMex oasis saving me from the MoPac traffic. RIYL: TexMex, but better than your average

    Highly recommend this place. The food was delicious and they do not use seed oils. The steak…read morefajitas were the best we have ever eaten anywhere and generous enough to split. The guacamole was mostly just avocado but they put pickled veggies with it and it will light you up! Our server was super sweet and did a good job and the place was slammed. It was SXSW weekend so all of the extra crazies were in town. The churros do not get cooked inside. They were wet and gummy. We mentioned to the manager and she was very apologetic and replaced them immediately. They were still raw inside but they were already removed from our ticket. The house margaritas were very good! Like I said, it was a crazy, busy weekend so the DJ had the tunes bumping really loudly. Not sure if it's always this way but with concrete ceilings and floors it was loud. Hard to hear server and each other. I'd still go back for the food.

    Real rating is 3.5. Over all food and drinks were great. But there was a random dog running around…read morethe pool area that no one seemed to have control over. Kind of irritating when you're trying to relax. A cabana is the way to go but the seating for the couch slides all over the place. Service was great for how busy they were! Update- apparently the dog's owner is a resident of The Proper.....still not okay to be doing this....but grateful for the waitstaff for trying to manage such rude people

    Tucked away in a building across from Popeye's, this charming little restaurant doesn't have a wide…read morevariety to choose from--but what they offer is pretty special and definitely worth a visit. I ordered 2 steak tacos and horchata, both very delicious. The horchata is milky and sweet but not crazy sweet, and topped off with cinnamon. The steak tacos came out pretty hot, fresh from the grill. I got them on corn tortillas and I'm glad I did: idk if they make them in house but somebody in some house is making these because they definitely aren't store bought, and if they are I want to know where! I tried the orange habanero and creamy serrano salsas. The habanero was spicy off the bat, while the serrano had more of a lingering burn. Both paired well with the steak. They have a little bar, too, though I did not imbibe this time. Seems like they have a decent selection of agave spirits, and even Campari behind the bar (iykyk). Give them a shot, and thank the ladies in the kitchen.

    I personally don't eat breakfast tacos usually, but the breakfast tacos here are delicious. Out on…read morea whim, happen to drive by and saw this place. Decided to come in and the cashier greeted us and was really nice and patient because of questions with the menu. The Taco Bueno is what I had ordered and requested no potato. Sat down and after a few seconds, chips & salsa was delivered. Then after a few minutes, the food came. Quick service for sure and the food, AMAZING. Anyone reading this, try this place out and if u like it, come back! Cuz we are for sure =D
