    Weekly specials
    Eddie K.

    I think this place should deserve way more stars and recognition than it is! Came here on a Tuesday night and there weren't a lot of people so we were sat down quickly. The service is really good, the server refill out chips, salsa, and water consistently. We got the tres amigos and a weekly special dish - both have large portion and are delicious! I really enjoyed their beef tacos with bell pepper, full of flavour. We finished up with a pumpkin flan - I normally do not like pumpkin but this is def an exception! The flan is really fluffy and soft, not too sweet as well! Love the presentation. The restaurant has good ambiance with a lot of Latino decorations. The price is very reasonable and I think it's worth it. Will def come back in the future.

    Chicken Avocado Fajitas

    Service has always been consistently great, prompt, and friendly. Food is great every time. Highly recommended.

    Loved every bit of it. The service was great, they were fast. The ambiance is good, some of the corners probably need a little more lighting. The food was amazing. The complimentary chips and salsa were delicious. The salsa is in the spicier side and reminded me of the habanero salsa we had in Mexico. The chicken ranchero is one of the best I have tried in Austin. The meat was juicy and very well flavored.definitely going to recommend this place.

    I really appreciate the service we receive here. I come regularly with a large group, and the restaurant accommodates us easily. Our chips and salsa stay filled, our food comes readily, and we are never pressured to leave. The grilled and fajita chicken are seasoned well. Vegetables are fresh. Love the different sauce options. They have good in-house cocktails, but bring a designated driver because you may find yourself overibiding.

    Classic House Rita & Passion Punch  1st round!

    Just arrived, 1st round, so far so good. Good service so far! a little pricey, but the drinks were effective. The food is good that cheese enchilada with the chili sauce were delicious. The beans had great flavor. The rice had good flavor. Their chips are pretty good. We ate like three bags of those. The quail poppers were extremely hot, but it's because I left the seeds in the jalapeño. I'm a lightweight I guess. Would go back to try something different.

    Chimicangas! Look at the portion size.

    This spot is nice, but it can be seriously hit or miss. I've had excellent service while the place was packed, the food comes out hot and delicious. I've also had real slow service with mediocre food that comes out lukewarm. It really depends, but I have no idea on what. Consistently though? Friendly staff, clean space, great atmosphere, nice drinks, and a solid quesadilla. So on those alone we keep coming back when we're in the rare mood for TexMex. It's incredibly casual, but I've never felt out of place the few times I happened to be dressed up while going here. It's nearby and can typically handle groups so it's good for a hang out spot. I've heard great things about the tortilla soup but as a vegetarian I can't say for myself. Service staff are all friendly and helpful and willing to double check on things dietary restrictions if you need them to. Husband and I will drop in again from time to time, but it's not really a place we would go out of our way for.

    Stuffed avocado dish. Disgusting

    Ordered stuffed avocado plate. Disgraced of Tex mex food industry. Do not recommend this place. Wouldn't feed this food to an animal.

    Mexican Martini

    You know I think I've found me a new spot..Tres Amigos was super yummy today & totally hit the spot! The Tortilla Soup was soooooo good! It had plenty of flavor & chicken! I also had a Mexican Martini which made me feel a little bit prettier & the tres leches was really good! I also had their homemade mango ice cream & sopaipilla..both were delicious & fresh! Tres Amigos I think you're my new BFF. -Rebecca out

    It was ok. The salsa was too mild. Had the enchilada dinner, came with 3 (shrimp, ground beef, chicken). Chicken was the better of the 3.

    Food and service was amazing. I'd recommend buying food for the table and sharing with everyoneread more

    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.

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!
