    Already ravaged through most of it but heres a pic for posterity
    Neil O.

    Can confirm that their breakfast tacos are great. Ordered 2 bacon, potato & cheese and 2 steak egg & cheese and they were LOADED with ingredients, and clearly freshly cooked & chopped bacon which is always appreciated. Be sure if ordering to go though to ask for salsa because it seems it doesn't come already in the bag because their red salsa is amazing; on the more runny side but has great flavor and juuust the right level of heat.

    They now open for dinner. Always love their food and spicy salsa. Service is pleasant.

    Service was quick and everyone was friendly. Inside is much bigger than expected and decorative. Would've taken a picture of the food but an empty plate is enough to say how good it all was.

    Fajita Egg and Cheese Taco

    Best breakfast tacos I've had hands down! I've been eating here for the past 7 years, probably had them over 100x and I can honestly say that I have not ever been left disappointed. Service is good, normally call in my order and for the past 7 years it's been the same person taking the orders so she knows when it's me which is a plus! Had them yesterday after a few months and it still hit the spot, costs have gone up but that's too be expected. Ordered 2 fajita, egg and cheese tacos which came out to a little over $12.

    This is the enchiladas plate and some salad.

    Delicious food and friendly service. 10/10 recommend. I've been going here with my family for several years, they never disappoint. Deserves more recognition

    Mexican rib eye steak. Dinner!!

    It looks like a hole in the wall from outside but the food is amazing. Friendly service. Weekends get crowded but breakfast is also amazing. You won't be disappointed. Your taste buds for Mexican food will be totally satisfied

    Beef fajita with guacamole
    Joser M.

    $14 for two tacos. Two beef fajita with guac cost $14.02???!!! $7 per taco. I paid for them because I already ordered them, but I won't be back again. The tacos weren't very large to justify that price. Either the pricing for this place is off or the lady at the register isn't charging correctly. The menu online has no prices so it's hard to tell. The menu photos on google show the fajita tacos are 3.99 and guac is an extra .50 per taco. I understand things are up in price, but $7 per taco is ridiculous. Plus the guacamole added was very light. Food always taste good but I always have a bad experience when it comes to transparency of the prices. When I walked out, there were other customers asking amongst themselves whether the $120 they paid was correct. It's clear that it's a bigger issue than just what I've experienced.

    Left additional tip at the table  since service was ok.  But overall the cost for an omelette was high.

    Ordered a Fajita breakfast omelette. Was overall was good. Service was fine. You rested only the omelette and a water. The cost was $25.00 with tip. Absolutely ridiculous for the quantity/quality of food. Part of the $25 was for a coffee that I never ordered. They did refund that cost of $3.25. But the rest of the bill was the omelette. It seems the menu states ranchero sauce on the omelette but the. It is an add on cost of over $5. Don't think I will be back.

    I've lived in Pioneer Crossing West for a few years and have probably driven by Vasquez several hundred times. I had no idea this little Mexican restaurant was so legit! I saw on other posts that their food was authentic so I had to try for myself and, disappointed I was not. Right when I walked in I was greeted with warm, super-courteous, bright-sunshiney smiles. Basically, their staff was super friendly and welcoming. Amazing group of ladies in the front of the house. Unfortunately, I only had takeout so I didn't get to have the full experience of dining in, but I'm still impressed regardless. I ordered the Deluxe Vasquez breakfast plate with Barbacoa, over medium eggs, with a couple of breakfast tacos for us. Their plates all come with potatoes and retried beans, by the way. I'm actually not a fan of retried beans but really enjoyed theirs. My order was prepared in five minutes so that was a pleasant surprise. To top it off, their coffee was the bomb. Just something about these small restaurants and diner types that have such great coffee!

    Maybe because we got there an hour before they closed, but the food was so bad. There was nothing but oil and fat in my Barbacoa taco, and Beef Fajita Enchilada Plate.

    Have lived in Texas my whole life and have eaten at hundreds (literally) of Mexican restaurants. I'm aware us Austinites get a bad rap when it comes to Mexican food because we're not a border town, but I'm here to say that Vasquez is top 2 and it's not 2. Best kept secret in Austin and I selfishly pray it stays that way. Im literally about to go again right now as the food taste like tear drops from god. I need it in my veins.

    Great service and amazing authentic food. We went for brunch and everything was fantastic. I devoured my Huevos divorciados and forgot to take a pic of the food. I also had the best michelada.

    I must admit that I was a bit skeptical about this tiny restaurant in an older strip mall bearing…read more a big blue sign that said "Diner" on it. But I enjoy new experiences and menus with eclectic dishes. The menu had few choices for breakfast and I was unsure why it was suggested as a breakfast place. It's actually a good place to eat any time of day! The beautifully decorated patio provided the perfect welcome into their modestly decorated air conditioned restaurant and bar. When I say bar, it's more like a 1950s bar that you can sit at and have a meal at. Although drinks and meals were offered any time of day! The waitress was pleasant and helpful in suggesting add ons with my meal. But being a purist, I wanted to try it as intended. The food arrived in the normal amount of time. When I first saw my mozzarella omelette I was a little surprised! It didn't look anything like what it was described as! Oh well! I thought. Let's give it a try! My taste buds were happily amazed! Could this omelette smothered in mushroom gravy, green "pesto" and bread crumbs be the best omelette I've ever had?! The mushroom tomato gravy was so smooth! Along with the cilantro avocado topping. That tasted more like pesto, gave it the perfect zing! I had wished I the had ordered some toast to dip in the sauce. I could have done without the bread crumbs. But they were easily swept to the side. The amount of mozzarella cheese in this omelette led me to believe it was more of an omelette lasagna than a plain old omelette. This place is definitely a must if you are visiting Austin!

    My first experience here was amazing, which is why I was excited to come back for breakfast…read more Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. I ordered the migas, and the amount of onions in the dish was overwhelming--so much so that it felt like I had ordered a plate of onions rather than migas. The masa cakes were definitely the standout item and were absolutely delicious. However, the rest of the dish fell short. The sauce was extremely rich, making it difficult to enjoy or finish the meal. That said, the restaurant itself is adorable, and our waiter was fantastic. The service and atmosphere were both great. While this breakfast wasn't a hit for me, I'll still return and stick with favorites like the fried green tomatoes and taquito salad, which were excellent during my previous visit.

    I dined at The Scarbrough for brunch during my stay in Austin. It was just a short, pleasant walk…read morefrom my hotel. The Scarbrough is located inside the Scarbrough Building lobby. They specialize in crepes. They have a handful of small tables as well as couch seating. You place your order at the counter then the staff brings it to you once it's ready. I ordered my go-to drink, an oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon as well as their Lox n' found croiffin. The latte was great. The Lox n' found croiffin comes with a toasted croissant roll, smoked salmon, ricotta, avocado, arugula, capers, pickled onions and dill. I added an egg for an additional charge of $2. This was a beautiful and tasty sandwich! It was very filling, too. I highly recommend checking out this unique spot!

    The food is delicious, and the setting is unique, but the service is a bit slow…read more The restaurant is located in the lobby of the Scarbrough Building. It's a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It's a bit hard to locate from outside. There's no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant's name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building's doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I'd recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn't try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers. The menu says it also comes with a side of roasted potatoes, but mine didn't come with that. The sandwich was delicious and filling, so I definitely didn't need them, but I do feel like I didn't get what I paid for.

Rather just have a latte or a beer? They've got beer on tap and in the coolers for take away purchase. Cider and other bevvies as well. Going to a dinner party and want to grab a nice bottle of wine? They've got you covered. Fancy a cocktail or a glass of juice? Have at it. They've also got a small shopping area where you can buy hot sauce, gift cards (to The Meteor), cups, mugs, and more.
