Good Tex-Mex food with early and late hours in an area that has more bad than good choices for fast food/cheap eats. Great choice for breakfast or a late night supper. They need a taller sign, you can’t see it from the highway, you have to know it’s there, but I was stuck in a nearby cheap motel saving money, so I drove by, drove in, and liked it enough to return a couple of times. Stick with the tacos or burritos, it’s what they do.

This place straight-up RULEZZZ. When it’s morning and we’re hungry and/or hungover, it can not be beat for delicious cheesy migas and spicy red chilaquiles. Their salsa fresca is perfect. Literally perfect, fresh as hell and chunky like it should be. And their almost-too-red(What is in it??? I don’t care.) michelada is one of my favorites in town. But, whoa! Lest ye think it’s only good for breakfast, try these other non-breakfast things: Crispy beef tacos — unusual in that they use honest-to-god picadillo in these with peas and potato chunks in it. The meat is kinda-sorta-super greasy but man, it’s good. Cheese enchiladas — cheesy as fuck, awesome chile sauce Chicken flautas — okay, actually these can be a little dry inside, but they are also almost a foot long so if you like comically large food, this is for you! Plus, dip em in guacamole and ain’t nothin’ dry. ANNNDDD to make everything that much better, all the waitstaff are SUPER nice and friendly and cute, too. ANNDDD sometimes on weekends there’s mariachis that come in which is kind of horrible at first if you’re real hungover but also kind of fun and eventually your ears get accustomed to it and they also only stay for like 3 songs. If you’re looking for any ambience besides«decorated by Goodwill» then you might want to look elsewhere. Personally I care not for such fancies as long as the food and service are good and this place gets 5 stars from me on both!

Breakfast dishes are legit and cheap. Chilaquiles are spot-on according to my Mexican friends.

I am only writing about the migas breakfast tacos as I have no other meal experience. They’re freaking awesome, especially with the spicy red sauce. They’re not even on the menu — my friend told me to go get one. Seriously so good. So, if the owner is reading — put these on your menu! They’re delicious and cheap. I will say that the location and parking lot aren’t doing this place any favors. It’s right off the service road of 35 and tucked away where you can’t see it until you’re right up on it. Unless you know where it’s at and you’re ready to slam on your brakes and do a quick turn, you’ll miss it. You’ve been warned. EDIT: Still great, but only most of the time. They aren’t always consistent which is kind of annoying.

This quickly became my favorite place to eat in my neighborhood. The tacos and burritos are so cheap I just couldn’t justify eating fast food anymore. The barbacoa, lengua, and al pastor is fantastic. My other favorite dish is the Chile Relleno with a Horchata. Cheap food & a wonderful kitchen staff. Sometimes they have homemade flan.

This place makes the corn tortillas like in Mexico! When I first got my plate(carne asada), I asked for corn tortillas and when they came out with my food, I stopped and smelled the tortillas. It was Mexico, right under my nose. The tortillas have a soft texture, which is not what you get from store bought, or even ones made like from Milagros or HEB. This stuff is more doughy and delicious! Yum! I would definitely order things that aren’t enchiladas or tex-mex(its good, but come on, you are in a Mexican restaurant, so try the real Mexican food!)… the carne asada is quite delicious, served with rice and beans and nopalitos(cacti)! If you are not that hungry, shrimp cocktail is pretty good and not so filling. Oh and the salsas are actually spicy and yummy! I like this place for some good mexican food. There are several in Austin, but I think the one on Riverside, is the one that I go to, and I’m not entirely sure if all of them serve real corn tortillas(but check out the one on Riverside).

Had a breakfast 222, two eggs, two ham, two pancakes, what I learned? Leaver it for ihop. The breakfast tacos are good, especially the fajitas. The rice is flavorless. The staffs is nice. Ok joint overall on breakfast.

What a surprise. The outside and the location are quite lackluster. When you walk in however it is clean and the staff is extra friendly. I ordered a Quesadilla with carne asada beef. It was very good. The meat was very flavorful and it was full of cheese. The 2 salsas were delicioso as well, one very fresh and the other was smokey and spicy. Ill definately be back!

Crispy tacos and California Burrito all the way! I like eating in or taking it to-go. I’ve also tried the Mole Chicken Enchiladas and they were excellent as well. We’re not talking gourmet, we’re just talking quality well-priced mexican fare.

Stupid me, I confused this place for Taqueria Arandas, and yes, there is a difference. I didn’t realize it until my bff pointed it out when we drove by recently. It was mid-day and the lunch crowd had made their way out. The boyfriend ordered the taco plate and I had the chicken mole. I was surprised to see mole on the menu, it’s always been tough to find a mexican joint that serves this. Tacos were pretty average according to him. The mole was chocolate based and after about five or six bites it became more sweet than savory. It was dessert chicken. You can’t beat the prices here though. I think our bill was about $ 18 with tip.

I had the beef(picadillo) enchiladas with verde sauce. The sauce was spicy, as promised — yum! I would say that the food was workable but not recommendable. The beans had very little«sabor» and the rice was yellow and boring. The beef filling had little bits of carrot and pea(I think) and was nothing to write home about. The service was pleasant enough(be prepared to communicate in broken Spanish if you«no hablo»). One thing I can say — the price is right. A good sized enchilada place for six bones plus change is not bad.

I love this place because it reminds me of home. The prices are so cheap, and the food is awesome. The tortillas are home-made(none of that store-bought paper tasting crap). They have bomb horchata too. You get complimentary chips and salsa like any other Mexican restaurant. I prefer the pico de gallo one. I always have to contain myself from filling up on chips and salsa before my food arrives. I have had their chicken fajitas, quesadillas, and tortas. It is all good. The waitresses are always friendly. Keep in mind that most of them have very limited English.

This place has it going on! Breakfast specials are cheap and the plates are full. I ordered the menudo and barbacoa tacos on the side .The bowl was huge with alot of carne and a large pigs foot .I ordered two tacos but I made three tacos out of all the meat it had. They have tradional american plates for 2.99 but ‘I need to go back to try those becuz no offense, that doesn’t cure a hangover like MENUDO, can I get an AMEN!!!

Okay, so I feel a little apprehensive about rating this as a three star because, for what it is, it’s perfect. This is a typical taqueria restaurant that serves really good Mexican food inexpensively. When entering, the smell of hot corn oil was hanging in the air and eventually on me. I had to change my clothes before a meeting so I didn’t offend anybody. The waitresses were both very nice. As is par for most taquerias and pupuserias, telenovelas(Spanish language soap operas) were on the television. They brought out chips and two types of salsa… a red and a green. For my main dish I had a bean burrito with a side of beans and Mexican rice, which had green beans, carrots, and peppers. To drink, I had melon(cantaloupe juice). I tried to explain in Spanish that I was vegetarian and the waitress suggested the chicken salad, so, judging by the other vegetarians’ reviews, I’d say this place is not going to adapt to the trends of America’s health-conscious. If that’s not a concern for you, this place’s food is extremely tasty. My burrito came with beans, rice, salad and guacamole inside of it… the plate all together was around $ 5 and the drink was about $ 1.50. Again, it’s a great place so long as you accept it for what it is. The tofu burrito will not likely find its way onto this menu.

GREAT authentic Mexican Restaurant. I would suggest the Cubana which rocks in flavor and in price. You can’t go wrong with the Malanesa(sp?). It’s the Mexican version of a Chicken Fried Steak Sandwich… mmmm good

Until I moved, this was my neighborhood taqueria. I referred to it affectionately as «Taco Hut» since it’s housed in a former Pizza Hut building(also previously known as India Hut, since there was an Indian restaurant before the taqueria). I can’t vouch for anything but their breakfast tacos and salsa, but those are delicious. You can grab them to go, or dine in. The servers don’t always speak English fluently, but that’s not really a problem for me, I can order tacos in Spanish. I was pleasantly surprised during one of Austin’s nastier ice storms to find that they were open, and I was able to walk over there and get a late breakfast, since work was closed. Definitely a treat.
