Our Guestbook
“ We had 10 people in our party and were seated right away.The food portions were unexpectedly big and delicious. Unlimited chips and salsa were a plus and kept the kids happy while waiting for our food. Even their margaritas were to our liking....with a kick. So glad we found this place and will go back again. We didn't take photos of all the plates, but here are two. ”
“ Possibly the best Tex-Mex restaurant we have visited in years. Fresh food, great taste, waitress was amazing. We visited on a Wednesday and they had a live band. The patrons started dancing and we joined in. Such a great time! ”
“ From the moment I walked in the door, Chrissy greeted me and seated me at a booth. Then Robert provided the best service that I've received in years. The food is excellent!! Aja is a wonderful bartender and I absolutely love this place. All around wonderful dining experience with excellent food. ”
“ We had a nice experience having dinner at this restaurant. We ordered the fajita plate with all sides and it was very good. The beat was soft, tender and very tasty. It seems that fajitas are the specialty because everyone at our table order those the menu extensive and buried so I’m sure there is, more delicious plates to try. The restaurant is nicely decorated, and it has accents that make you feel as if you’re in a little town in Mexico. The service was friendly, and courteous. Our food was served promptly and very warm. The sizzling sizzling griddle is very appropriate to serve you the freshest food possible. Most definitely will come back to try other plates from the menu. ”
“ I've been here twice. The food is really good, and the prices are very competitive. It's also a pretty calm place that doesn't get packed with people, even during their most busy times which is another reason I like coming here. Service is very good, and food is served promptly. If you like Mexican dishes then I do recommend this restaurant. It isn't the fanciest however. My only complaint is they could do a better job cleaning the tables and using newer furniture. Apart from that, strongly recommend. ”
“ Great food and great service. The staff was very friendly. They may have been a little slow but the restaurant was pretty busy and it was lunch time so we understood. My friend had the BBQ brisket enchiladas and said that they were the best enchiladas she had ever had. The chips and salsa were so good! I really liked that they projected basketball games. I would definitely come back! Excellent Mexican food and pancakes! (; ”
“ My husband and I decided to try this place out. And,man, I'm so glad we did! There was only 2 servers at the time we were there, but, our server- Fernanda, was attentive, polite, and friendly. Place had good comfortable atmosphere, clean, and seemed spacious. My husband got sweet tea, which he said was very good, and I got a Mexican martini, which was so good that I wish I had ordered another one. We started with- chips, salsa, "queso Roberto" ( similar to queso compuesto) , and a guac salsa. All so very delicious that it was difficult to stop eating to save room for our dinner, lol. I ordered chalupas- on the menu it's called - "Gimmie Chalupas", 2 to a plate, so I ordered one chicken and one beef so I could share one with my husband. He ordered the street tacos, 3 came on the plate, and he shared one with me. When we got our food, it came with a grilled jalapeno, and man, I loved that! So much so, I order a couple of those to go. All the food was amazing! We will definitely go back. ”
“ Hell yeah. Excellent Mexican joint in south Austin. Service was great, the area is large and spacious with an inside and outside area. Full bar, breakfast till 3pm, and daily specials. The Guisada was delish, chips are really good, and frijol was . The salsa with the chips is okay, the green salsa they sell for 2 ain't worth it, and the corn tortillas are from the michocana, not homemade. 4 stars for that but forreal, go check this out. ”
