I ordered the Pollo Catracho, bone in chicken, with a seasoned crust, moist and juicy interior, served on a bed of sliced plantains, and topped with Honduran dressing, shredded cabbage and pickled onions. The young lady that took my order was very friendly and helpful. Although I thoroughly enjoyed the Pollo Catracho, I hope to return and request to order the fried chicken only that was very well-seasoned with a lite crust that was beyond measure.

Fortunately for me, Sabor a Honduras was ready to turn that around. The employees were very nice and accommodating as my friend and I put in our orders, and were happy to give us guidance as we took the plunge in to Honduran food. While the dishes were definitely more expensive than I would have expected (hovering around $15) they were plentiful, and genuinely really tasty. My friend got the pollo catrachos and I got the tacos catrachos, and both were great. Overall I really enjoyed the experience. I think to-go might be a bit of a better plan than eating in (we did, and I can't say I'd recommend it) but overall it was a really solid experience.

    Amazing food for a local food truck. The food didn't even take 10 minutes to be ready & was very…read morewarm with SO much flavor

    EDIT: I lowered their rating from 4 to 3 stars. On a couple…read moreof occasions, their meat tends to be overcooked, and that kind of inconsistency can ruin a meal. No one wants to fight with piece of meat. Everything else is till spot on. I'm not sure if there are any Austin Yelpers who are considered the authority on Honduran food. If you're out there, thank you for holding my spot, but I'll take it from here. First things first. The Baleada. This is quintessential street fare, not to mention the most ubiquitous in Honduras. An over sized, handmade flour tortilla filled with refried beans, scrambled eggs, crumbled white cheese, and cream. That's a sencilla (simple) version. You should take the baleada con carne which is that same thing with grilled beef added. These things are huge. You only order one. Seriously. Next, let's talk plantains. Growing up, fried sweet plantains were a mandatory part of any Honduran meal. Here, they serve it the way it would be served at home. The fried plantain is sliced, then served with refried beans, crumbled white cheese, and cream on the side. Top it with as much as you like and go crazy. It's delicious. There are other dishes to try, and you should explore the options, but not before you've tried these two. Honorable mentions go to the Chicharron con Yuca (fried pork rinds with cassava) and the Carne Asada con Tajadas (grilled meat with fried green plantains.) If you want to do this properly, you should also ask for a "Banana" to drink. It's a soda and you can probably guess the flavor. The last thing I'll tell you is that, no matter what you order, you need to ask for a side of "encurtido." Shut up and do it! Almost forgot to mention that this is a CASH ONLY establishment. Enjoy your meal!

    I'm not Mexican, so I'm not pretending to be an expert on Mexican food. I'm simply sharing this…read morefrom the point of view of someone who travels a lot and has tried Mexican food in many different places, all with their own style. And with that said, this was honestly the best Mexican food I have ever eaten. Taqueria El Compa was so good, I had to order twice. The first thing I tried was the agua de Jamaica, and you could immediately tell it was made from scratch. It was fresh, flavorful, not overly sweet, and the portion was generous. The cup was huge, about half a liter, and it was exactly what I needed after coming from the airport starving. For tacos, I first ordered three: chicken, beef, and carne asada. They were served on corn tortillas, not flour, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. They came topped with avocado, white onion, cilantro, and cucumber on the side, and every bite was delicious. The meat portions were generous, and the flavors were incredible. The green sauce was amazing, and the red sauce had real heat, so be careful if you're sensitive to spice. It was so good that I went back and ordered three more tacos. That says everything. The prices were also very fair. My first order, three tacos plus the agua de Jamaica, was only $16. My second order, three more tacos, was $12. For the quality, freshness, and portion size, I thought it was absolutely worth it. What made the experience even better was the service. I had almost finished my drink and asked if they could add a little more ice to my cup. Not only did she add ice, she added more agua de Jamaica too and didn't charge me anything extra. That kind of care means a lot. It felt like eating at a family member's house, where they genuinely want you to enjoy your food and leave happy. This place is clearly loved for a reason. While I was there, several people came in to order, mostly for takeout, so it definitely stays busy. I only found it because it was about 3 miles from the airport and had great reviews, and now I completely understand why. If I could give this place 100 stars, I would. The food was outstanding, the service was kind and generous, and the whole experience felt special. If I ever come back to Austin, I will absolutely return.

We ordered Al pastor tacos, quesabirria (3 for $14), and Bistec tacos - all with flour tortillas. The tortilla while fresh was slightly dry (I like mine a little more soft and lard-y), but the quesabirria was killed with melty cheese and hearty consommé! all came with two salsas and limes, very delish quick bite

    This truck has always caught my eye. Made a mental note to check it out when I'm coming back to…read moreHOU from AUS and it was a great decision! Located just about a mile before Bu-cees in Bastrop, you'll find this right off of Rt 21 near the Ally Medical Emergency stop. Stopping here on my way back from AUS on a Sunday in early September, it was about 830AM, just in time for breakfast. So breakfast tacos were the order with a chorizo & egg plus a sausage & egg. After about 4-5 minutes, my order was finished. Digging in, the flavors are straight up fresh and tasty with the warm tortillas fresh off the grill and the eggs mixed in nicely with the other proteins. The tacos are quite large so two were enough for me. Price-wise, they are very affordable and they take credit cards too. Do not miss this when you're on 21; definitely one of the best-kept secrets in Bastrop and I look forward to returning for more when I venture out to AUS... or coming back from there!

We always take them home and they remain super hot still!

The green salsa is so good with the perfect amount of spice! I'd recommend this place!
