    Came here on the weekend while in Austin and I have always seen it on social media and I thought it was hyped up because cute trendy places usually are and the quality of food is not so great, so we decided to give it a shot and besides it being super cute inside. The service was great and the food was really really good. I am definitely coming back when I'm in Austin.

    Tacos Dorados
    Christa S.

    This wasn't the best meal I've ever had, but also wasn't the worst. I have high expectations for tacos, etc., but chose this spot for the group I was going with - younger, Instagram- and TikTok-driven individuals who also love the color pink. So this was the spot we selected for lunch. Keep in mind that their weekday lunch menu is different than their weekend brunch menu. We started with the elote and it was just OK. The chile con queso was well prepared and the chips were tasty. I went for the tacos dorados and they were fine (good size for a lunch portion) - maybe a bit too heavy on the red cabbage. The service was good - they were helpful in guiding us and in offering to take photos in the photo-ready spots. It's in a shopping strip with plenty of free parking should that also be of use.

    Enchiladas Vegetariana
    Chris F.

    Decent food and a great vibe/aesthetics! The food is servicable, I ordered the enchiladas vegetariana and enjoyed but didn't love it. That being said, I feel like most people who come here are coming for the aesethic and/or a photo op, which this place definitely excels at (even though it's not necessarily my preferred aesthetic I do understand the appeal). Service was great, my water was always refilled before I could even think about asking and they were super accommodating, letting us put the avocado on the side without issue. Go to this place for the aesthetic and expect to be satisfied but not blown away by the food! (Side note, it was pretty obnoxiously loud when we went, but I'm not holding it against them because there was a party going on with a DJ and the person who took us said it's usually not that loud)

    What a beautiful place and great business idea!!! I saw this place and immediately needed to add it to my list of places to visit. Came for lunch, had the special and enjoy such a fabulous atmosphere! I have to come with my girlfriends. This is such a great place to mingle with friends and have beautifully crafted margaritas! The food is delicious as well and the service we had was great. Can't wait to come back.

    Overall, it's a great spot in an excellent location right by The Domain. The service is average, but the vibrant pink atmosphere is what really makes this place stand out. It's perfect for an all girls brunch or dinner, and on some Sundays they even have a DJ. The enchiladas are delicious, and parking is easy. A super cute, girly, Barbie-inspired restaurant.

    Beef fajita parrillada for 1
    Priscilla G.

    Service was great! Our server Santiago was very attentive and answered all questions. I ordered the beef fajitas for one, taquitos de papa con queso, quesadilla plate, and kids enchilada. Portions were very generous so order with caution. The only reason I didn't give it a 5star rating is because I wish they had more of the authentic dishes, flautas, street tacos, Mexican enchiladas... other than that the vibe was vibing!!

    I love it here it! They do a lot of bachelor parties here. Once a month they do a drag queen party you have to check with the restaurant to see what day it is as it varies. What can I say? It's all pink! The staff is very friendly. The food is amazing. I love it coming from a Latina. It is credit card and cash friendly. There is no outside patio. It's a cute place for girls events ... not to say that men are not allowed, but it is very pink

    Cuban sandwich
    Amber L.

    We'll keep this one more direct: the parking is good with it being in a shopping center, the drinks are decent and relatively strong, the food is not too bad. Here's where the rest falls off: the staff is not great. Once we arrived we waited for about 3 minutes to be taken care of at the front. 3 minutes may not sound like a lot of time but we had staff look directly at us and continue conversations before they eventually came over. The place had only one other party when we arrived so they were not busy at all. When we were seated we ordered pretty quickly and the drinks came quickly so we'll give them that. The second issue we had was when we ordered our food. One of us ordered the Tinga de pollo tacos which was pretty good and flavorful, the other ordered what ended up being the sorriest excuse of a cuban sandwich we've ever seen. The sandwich is supposed to come with 2 proteins and cheese and vegetables. All we asked for was no vegetables. What came out of the kitchen was elementary school lunch food with only ONE protein on it. We notified the waiter and he said because we "basically took everything out" that's why it looked like that. Nope, not true. Where was the second protein? Why did it look like that? It would be very simple to just take a look at it and bring it back but to blame it on how we ordered when it very clearly did not come with what it was supposed to was very disingenuous. Otherwise, okay food and drinks, but don't come here expecting anywhere near half decent service.

    Super cute restaurant. It can get very busy. I enjoyed the tacos and the drink presentation was very cutesy. Fun place to check out!

    Came here for a date with my bestie. The vibe was really cool... everything really is pink... ! We went on a Saturday and there was a DJ... he played reggaeton. The service wasn't anything special...we were seated and then we watched our waitress talk to lady at the bar and eat for almost 15 minutes before she realized we were there. Food prices were good....but the food was mid... get the mimosa tower!

    Aperol Margarita
    Michael M.

    Great spot for cocktails. It is very picturesque with several great spots for photos. It has a pink theme throughout. The outdoor patio is spacious. The drinks are delicious and the service is nice. I'd recommend the Mango Mezcal Margarita and the Aperol Margarita.

    Margarita flight

    Came here to say for a bachelorette party for the pink theme and it did not disappoint! Lots of fun opportunities for photos and they really embrace the pink for their foods as well! They were also able to accommodate a change in our reservation time last minute for a large party (15). This was greatly appreciated. They were quite busy and service was a little bit slower (to get waters/cutlery) food and drink orders were very timely. I had the Tacos Dorados (pink tortillas) and the nachos and guacamole (also pink nachos)! Food was good I thought the tacos were a little over toasted for my liking but still good flavour! Loved the guacamole very balanced flavour! I also tried the margarita flight! Liked all of them especially the mango mani and strawberry frozen!

    Enchiladas vegetarianas
    Victoria B.

    This may be the most clever place I've ever enjoyed: "Tacos before vatos." Everything is pink: the menus, the neon, the telephone booth (!), even the margaritas. Everything. Our service was terrific, the food was excellent and the prices very reasonable. Enjoy!

Once you're inside, though, the whole operation runs with impressive efficiency. You order at the register, take your receipt, and hand it off to one of the taco guys behind the counter. As the sign says, "No Ticket, No Taco!" so don't lose it. Seating is limited and the line can get long, but they move fast. And don't come expecting cheese or sour cream -- the only add‑ons here are cilantro, onions, salsa, and guacamole. It's a stripped‑down menu, and they stick to it. The tacos are solid. The beef isn't anything remarkable, but the chicken is tender, moist, and genuinely flavorful. The quesadilla is the sleeper hit; the baked cheese gives it a deep, savory punch that outshines the tacos. And if you're hungry or just want the best value, the burritos are enormous -- stuffed right up to the tortilla's structural limit.

These flavors make it all the way into every bite, carried by a guacamole sauce that'll coat your tongue. Everyone I saw there left their plates empty. If you go - and you'll feel more alive if you do - make sure to accept the works. The onions and cilantro greatly balance each bite, while the salsa and guacamole are necessary and fundamental to tying the flavors together.. Despite their popularity, service remains lightning fast. The reluctantly bilingual cooks practically seize your order ticket to guide you through the process. This is my second taco journey to Austin and I haven't found better.

I ordered an al pastor, lengua, and asada taco, and honestly, they were all so good. The asada was my favorite, but the other two were right behind it.

It's not impressive enough for me to go out of my way to eat, but it's a really good choice if you're passing through already.

Sixth Street's neon and noise are basically next door, the Capitol sits up the hill, and the whole area is packed with people, bars, and that classic Austin mix of polished downtown hustle and late-night chaos. Velvet Taco is pure counter-service: you walk right up, order at the register, and then grab a seat. There's plenty of seating, so even with a couple of kids in tow it was no problem finding a spot. The place leans hard into what can only be called white-people tacos--soft, sad flour tortillas that taste like they came straight out of a grocery-store package, loaded with every wild creation the kitchen can invent. Global mashups, brunch hybrids, burger impostors, the works. No one is pretending these are the real deal. I went for the chicken-and-waffles taco, which was actually built on a thin, real waffle instead of a tortilla. Surprisingly good--crispy, a little sweet, chicken holding its own. The burger taco tasted exactly like a cheeseburger that had wandered into a tortilla and decided to stay. We also tried the shrimp taco (fine), one daughter got the kids' chicken taco (perfectly kid-level), and the other ordered the chicken tikka (spicy, saucy, and very much in the "why is this on a tortilla?" category). Everything was okay. Comparable to Torchy's in that same creative-American-taco lane. If you're looking for a true Mexican taco, stay far away. But if you just want to play around with some decent flavors on a cheap flour store-bought tortilla while sitting in the middle of downtown Austin, this is your spot. Not my favorite. Glad I tried it. Won't be back.

I had only stopped by this Food Truck (area) to try Desnudo Coffee, and spotted this business. I had heard some good things about Veracruz, but I was planning lunch elsewhere. Well, that other spot was CLOSED ON WEDNESDAYS! Seeing my situation, I saw it as opportunity to try the options at Veracruz --- including the famous from Food Network, migas taco. I ordered 4 tacos: the migas, migas poblano, shrimp macha (!!), and the Dona Reyna tacos. All of these specific tacos were priced between $6 and $6.75 per taco, not bad in Austin, and not bad considering the quality of said tacos. As you can see from my order, I opted on the more "novel" choices and they did not disappoint; that said, I do HIGHLY recommend the two variations of the migas taco and the shrimp macha taco. Oh, the shrimp macha was so FIRE, the flavors were bold and smoky with a kiss of heat. The migas tacos were FULLY LOADED, and the scramble with the tortilla chips were flavorul. TIP: They will ask corn or flour --- do flour. Everything is handmade, but those corn tortillas fall apart with all the sauce. Flour = durable and flavorful. I had plans, but the Universe had other plans for me that were superior. Try Veracruz All Natural --- and if your limited on $$$, you can snag 3 EXCEPTIONAL LOADED TACOS for about $20, that you will not find anywhere else!

The steak taco had too much fat in it. If I was strictly bashing this review on the food. I'd give it a three. It's not worth the price. Now, the service seemed to be decent until I didn't put a tip on my takeout order. Things seemed to go south. When my name was called, I grabbed the small paper bag and paused. No guacamole.

The guilt of spending that kind of money on such little food that was also just average, screamed in my conscience. Well, that was because the woman also had not given me my tres leches, which was going to be for my wife. I took the long walk back, stood at the counter for what felt like 10 minutes,and again it felt like a chore to get me what I paid for. No sorry. I would suggest taking a little longer walk to Taqueria de Diez
