    Cute sign outside in the seating area, picnic tables are available.

    I love this place! It's so affordable and delicious! I love the white corn elotes it reminds me of my childhood so I was so happy that I was able to find a place in Austin that sells it! Ive been here a couple of times and the food is always really good and the staff is so kind! Parking is limited at this location but Ive never had an issue getting a parking spot. Would 110% recommend this place to friends and family!

    This place is totally a hole in the wall you either know about it or you don't. I love the corn in the cup here. It definitely hits the closest to back home in Mexico. I love that they use the actual authentic white corn the way they do in Mexico. And the price is just amazing for the quantity that they give you. I also got flaming hot Cheetos with cheese. I was craving it and the cheese is so good. They perfectly balanced the flavor in it and it was not watery like other places. Honestly, everything looks delicious in there and this is a place. I love to come to enjoy when I have cravings and want snacks. Everyone in there is so nice and they're real quick to get your order done that the weight is very minimal.

    I'm always in search of a Corn In A Cup (Elote). I grew up in Laredo and there's a place called Mr. Corn down there that is the gold standard. So... saw this place and our group decided to try it out. We did get the Elote... but it was not up to par for my taste (corn was not flavorful and the proportions were off) so I'll concentrate on what I felt they did well. Their Magonada was good. It's Mango fruit ice and not chunks of mango, but the flavor was there. The Chamoy and Chamoy straw make it even better. My kid and I split a banana split and that was good. Got a fresh banana, got coconut, butter pecan and vanilla ice cream and 3 cherries on top. They've got an assortment of other delicious concoctions and if you're into delicious and messy snacks and desserts with a south of the border flair. Stop in. The line moves quickly and the prices are fair. Most take it to go, but there are a few picnic tables out front.

    Coconada + Mango Hill

    This place was super yummy, super refreshing, and super awesome! We got the mango hill and coconada and both were delicious! The coconada had crunchy granola on top which I really liked, although once you get to the bottom it's kind of lacking in flavor. The mango hill was super bussin all around, 10/10.

    Heck yea! So refreshing on a hot day. Que rica Mangona! The sugar level is perfect. Not overly sweet and I love how I can taste the natural sugar of the mango.

    Was craving some spicy corn in and cup and had heard good things about Hay Elote. It wasn't bad and hit the spot on the craving. They have lots of menu items to choose from. I like food extra spicy so I added more of the salsa they had on the counter. The staff was nice to add extra cheese too. It did seem like the corn needed to be cooked a little longer to be softer, but overall it had good flavor.

    Food here hits the spot if u are looking for munchies. They have many snacks to choose from. With great service at the same time they speak Spanish and English. They don't have many places to sit n eat your food but I always take mine to the park near by.

    BEST MEXICAN DESSERT/SNACK SPOT IN AUSTIN!! This place is amazing. I ordered the large elote and a Mango Hill. They both were huge, a large serving size. The flavors were great and I am definitely coming again. I see why the ratings are so good. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone! There's also a taco food truck right next to the location so you can enjoy tacos while you're at it.

    Fresas con Crema
    Minly L.

    Super friendly establishments with numerous amounts of items on the menu. There doesn't seem to be any place for seating, other than outside, so going on a rainy day (like I did) would not be the best move. I got the Fresas con Crema. It was very refreshing and tasty. Not too sweet, which is amazing. I'm more use to thicker crema, but I'm also not familiar with what is considered traditional. Overall super great! I'm excited to come back and try everything else in the menu, especially the ELOTE!

    Mangonada - 16 Oz

    Super friendly service, lots of snack and sweet treat options to choose from, and very inexpensive.

    I absolutely love this place and come visit here every time I am in town! It is a small little place but there is seating outside. When you walk in, you order immediately and walk out the other end where there is the outside seating and parking lot. The parking is very limited but ppl go in and out quickly so it's not too hard to find parking. There is a lot on the menu but my favorite here is the mango hill. It is super refreshing during the hot summer's and light enough to really eat it and not feel full or disgusting. It is like a light mango Italian icecream covered in strawberries, a rainbow sour belt, and spicy seasoning and sauce. Everything complements it so well and I love it so much! The elotes are good but you may not like it if you like elotes with American yellow corn because this is made of the white corn!

I got the Matcha-Cha off the seasonal menu, which had a great balance of matcha flavor and lightly sweet strawberry ice cream. The roasted walnuts added a really nice break in texture, which I loved. My husband ordered the Campfire with added ice cream, which was rich and very chocolaty. The charred marshmallow on top was a great touch and made it extra indulgent. Overall, a great late night dessert stop with solid flavors and friendly service. Definitely worth checking out when you're craving something sweet!

I also took a risk on a nest shaped pastry filled with lemon filling, and I think it was my favorite of them all! They have tables where you can eat your treats there, and wash your hands afterwards, which is important because there's almost no way to do it without getting sticky fingers. I ate two pieces there, and saved two more for the evening, which was a lot for one day, but it was sure a treat!

Glad the choice was made for us -- the ube was perfect on its own. Also happy we skipped the toppings since the creaminess really came through. They sell mochi donuts too -- they were pretty good but not as good as the ice cream. Parking is limited but we had no issue snagging a spot at 430pm on a Sunday. Only a few narrow spots outside (no official lot). Full disclosure -- both my daughter and I had tummy aches after eating this ice cream and you know what? I have zero regrets! It was that good.

We had the Puddin': cream cheese icing, vanilla pudding, fresh bananas with nilla wafers. According to the menu. Ours didn't have any nilla wafers and the presentation was uneven, hence the four stars. I didn't miss the wafers. The icing and pudding were one goopy topping and the bananas slices were half scattered slices and half banana chunk that I had to separate. Side notes: Gourdough sits on a corner with parking spots that are not free. There's a pay via QR code so you'll need a phone or something to scan that. Boo for digital shackles. Next note- I feel like this is a low key meet up spot. Like the way they tried to make the first train cars on the MTA the singles car? There was a series of singles getting doughnuts and they were a little done up for the occasion. Who knows. With the little IG ready love seats and doughnuts made for sharing, you could walk away with extra sugar.

While we're glad you joined us, I'm sorry to hear your breakfast experience didn't meet expectations. We'll be reviewing your comments with our culinary team to improve consistency. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Wes Brown It's great to receive a response from the business manager regarding our experience at their restaurant, but all four us thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. We had absolutely no complaints regarding our dining experience. Caroline is affiliated with the Marriott Element and Aloft hotels and that, I believe, where the affiliation ends. I try to avoid hotel eateries but I've had great dining experiences at hotels like the JW Marriott in Austin. We, four, stopped by on a Sunday AM for breakfast and we had a great time. They do have brunch cocktails available and their bloody Mary's were deemed excellent with just the right amount of spice. My bloody Maria was on point and we all got our Sunday Funday started. Breakfast was wonderful. Our eggs arrived cooked perfectly. The pepper bacon and real potato sides were off the charts delicious. They also offer a few TexMex breakfast options and Plus one was raving about her Huevos Rancheros plate. Service was excellent even though they became busy our server was very attentive. Pro tip: Sat and Sun AMs if you arrive early you can easily score a table.
