    Atmosphere

    A significantly better version of its Domain counterpart, Taquero Mucho's downtown location is a bit smaller but has upgrades across the board. The staff was very attentive, the food was great, and the drinks/vibe were very fun. This is right off of 6th so parking can be iffy but they do have a parking lot attached so if it's not full then you're in luck. When we arrived we were seated quickly and the staff let us move things around to fit our party of 5 since most tables only fit 4 and they can get crowded. We ordered the guava cosmo rita and malibu barbie for drinks and both were good, fruity and sweet. For food we ordered a plain cheese quesadilla and the chipotle enchiladas. Both were good with the quesadilla being pretty filling and soft and the enchiladas being packed with flavor (plus they come with rice and beans on the side). Our server was great as well, very attentive and the food and drinks came out quickly. This location was a step up from our last experience at The Domain one and we can see ourselves returning here for a good meal and drinks to kick off a night of fun on West 6th.

    We came here for a brunch. The atmosphere is great plenty of photo opportunity with different signs. The food is horrible. The queso was bland the salsas are not spicy. We got chicken tacos and they have zero flavor. The service was good they try hard to be fast and quick with everything and only 2 guys working. The drinks were good.

    If you love the color pink, this place is for you! Everything is pink and pretty between the cute neon lights and multiple photo backdrop spots. I went for happy hour, and the food was good! I got the small tacos, and they were alright (not my favorite but not my worst). I also got the elite, and I loved it! To drink, I did get a Pink Margarita Clasica, and it was eh. They definitely didn't hold back on the alcohol. The staff were super friendly. They let me stay there for a long time as I was on my phone and read my book. There was not many people at the place.

    I loved how girly & pink this place was! Despite it being a weekend, it wasn't so busy which I found it odd. They had a life Dj, which turned up the volume high enough to the point you can't hear conversation across, we didn't mind though. I got the sopes plate , and I was a little nervous on how they would taste but the flavor and all was there ! I loved them & truly enjoyed it! I do think the servers could be a little more attentive but other than that, it was good!!!

    Shrimp tacos

    I was surprised that the food here was pretty AND good! We went at dinner time on a Sunday and we got seated right away. I had the best shrimp tacos I've ever had. It's a great place if you want some cute pics! Just be careful getting on the fake swing! It's a bit loose!

    I am obsessed with the color pink, I would paint my house Pink if I could lol so when I was visiting Austin and my BFF told me about this restaurant I knew we had to check it out because the entire restaurant is Pink. She has been here before and she had a good experience so I couldn't wait to try it, there was a short way but not too long, all of the decor is cute and chic, there are so many backdrops for photos! All of my Tik Tok aesthetic girls need to come here to take pictures, the phone booth was my favorite part. We had drinks and appetizers I had the Barbie cocktail and my friend had the pineapple margarita both were really good, I love that even the food is pink, when I am back in Austin I'll definitely come here again.

    WHAT FUN! What a great fun place with amazing pink decor! All the pink cocktails were a blast. They had a pink cowgirl hat vending machine in the back, which was so clever and unique. So many fun places for photo and selfies, which we of course just loved. Everything is pink, pink, pink, pink pink. Honestly, my pink waffle was not terrific, but the cuteness and pinkness of it made up for everything. You go to locations like this for the decor and ambience, and you give them a break for the food.

    good happy hour with great cocktails. in a fun pink atmosphere! the waiters are super nice . I do love their mini tacos of the HH menu five is great! Guac is yummy with that orange yummy salsa!

    The cutest photo ops at every corner!!
    Jackie W.

    The place is super cute inside and has so many photo ops. The drinks and happy hour was ok the drinks were a little on the sweeter side and of course pink! Happy hour was the right price for the drinks so get there early. The queso was also really good and part of the happy hour deal. Service was decent the place was pretty empty when we got there so everything went quick' We ended up just doing happy hour here which was perfect for girl time!

    French Toast, Bloody Mary, Mango Mami
    Leah H.

    *this review was stuck in my drafts from March 2023* Ordered: Bloody Mary Mango Mami French Toast In Austin for a bachelorette party so of course we went to this super photo-worthy spot for brunch one morning. Drinks and food were good, but honestly the reason to come out is all of the photo-op spots. Super cute place!

    Very cute restaurant but can be Super crowded and music is good but quite loud so it's hard to talk that's why I'm giving 4 stars. The waiter that services us was nice. I ordered the beef tacos (forgot the actual name on menu) and it was nicely seasoned. The sauce was nice and spicy so be careful. I ordered a mango margarita on the rocks and it was pretty good and strong. My friend ordered something with guava and she liked her drink. She also had the avocado with chicken (forgot to take pic) and she Really liked hers. She said it was very flavorful.

    It's pink!
    Susie G.

    This is the cutest pink restaurant. The interior is adorable and there is also a nice outdoor area and a covered porch area with ceiling fans. Tons of cute spots to make pics for the 'gram. The drinks, chips and tacos were pink! While I loved all the pink and the fun vibe, I figured that was the "gimmick" and the food probably wouldn't be that great. Wrong! The drinks and food were quite tasty. Friendly service. Maybe a little slow but we were in no rush so no biggie. Recommend going on a weekday if possible, there weren't many people there so we could easily make pictures when and where we wanted to and be as silly as we wanted.

    This is the pink girl's energy palace all the way! It's the cutest place in downtown Austin for us ladies. The restaurant alone, with its pink interior, heart balloons, pink ole fashion phone booth, and the pinkest patio, screams come on in to us ladies. I read that Taquero Mucho was inspired with us in mind but that the owner, who is a lady, owns another place, and the food is so good there that the guys found out about this place, and it drives the guys to come here to dine, too. But you know we ladies don't mind sharing. One important reason is the food is so good, the drinks are highly recommended, and the dining experience is one of a kind, so why not share? Also, it makes for a great date night!

    Yes

    How can I make a reservation?

    You can't. They don't take reservations. MAYBE large parties but def nothing under 6ppl. You would have to call to confirm

    Can you seat a large party ? Coming in hot with 12 girls.. no one answers the phone!

    I am sure they can accommodate you all BUT I do recommend someone get there way earlier to check in since they dont take reservations. The wait time for my party of 6 was 70 minutes on Sunday evening.

    What all sauces do they have?

    I was served a green salsa with guacamole, it was very good.

    I'm planning for a group of us to meet here on a Sunday. Can I make a reservation?

    They don't take reservations

    How long is the wait for dinner time?

    My wait for dinner was 70 minutes for a party of 6. It's a very trendy and instagram photo spot so its quite popular.

    What time is the brunch menu?

    Currently they are offering brunch Wed-Sun, noon-8pm for curbside orders.

    What time the kitchen close? Or is it open all night?

    Best meal of the Austin trip: upscale tacos and housemade masa in a welcoming space…read more Food: 5 Service: 4.5 Atmosphere: 5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: yes Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Waitress Kelly was wonderful and so professional. She noticed I was ordering dairy items on side and asked about if pesto in guacamole was ok. So astute and kind of her. Also on my friends second drink remembered she didn't want salt or her rim without even asking - Everything tasted so fresh and high quality - Brisket tacos: packed with flavor--maybe it was the wagyu meat or the black magic oil. Freshly made corn tortillas were awesome. Usually corn ones and pretty throwaway meh, but these added to the greatness of the tacos. 5 stars - Duck flautas: crispy covered in mild mole. Loved the mashed potato addition inside for some mellowness and texture. 5 stars - Guacamole: so fresh and that dollop of pesto on top was lovely. Served with crispy masa dippers were impressive almost a 8x11 page size. It was fun to crack off into pieces, but hard to stop eating it. 5 stars - Sweet potato: friend loved these long charred wedges. 4.5 stars - Cocktails were stellar. I got the Don Dario which was a play on a marg and delightful - $12 of a few drinks during lucky hour (Mon-Fri 5-6pm, Sat-Sun 3-5pm) - High energy vibes in a clean, open, tan colored space - Had their bottle water on the table in a champagne bottle which speaks to my heart Midlights: - In East Austin so have to Uber if you are staying more central - Tacos come in orders of 4. Wish it was less so we could've tried more variety. Lowlights - No food discounts for lucky hour - Didn't have time to try the choco taco which looked amaze - Large gap of time between items first few items coming out and the rest

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.

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.

    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!
