Great hidden truck! Came here craving tacos after hiking Inga's trail. Tucked in a gas station lot this truck felt authentic like I had back in California. Was served immediately and ordered some asada tacos and pastor tacos. Was interested in a gorda so I ordered that and asked if they had a quesadilla which wasn't on the menu and they did! They had green and red sauce both very delicious and the red was spicy! Tacos were awesomely portioned with plenty of meat and onions and cilantro and they gave lines too. The quesadilla came with some avocado and sour cream too. There were some benches in the shade if you wanted to eat there and you know it's good if the manual labor guys get their lunch here! Would totally come back for more! read more

SO SAD. I was incredibly hopeful this was going to be AH-MAZING, but instead, it fell a bit flat. I'm a huge fan of the sauce. I believe the sauce is what ties everything together when it comes to breakfast tacos. However... the sauce was so mediocre, I actually THREW IT AWAY *GASP*. I'm torn. I ordered the Migas and the Potato and Egg Breakfast Tacos. If you are a migas enthusiast, you know migas is a compilation of crushed tostadas, eggs, tomatoes, chiles, and onions mixed with cheese. For some strange reason... La Traila adds refried beans to their mix... which completely takes away from the classics of a migas. read more

Honestly, I'm from the valley near the border of Mexico so finding semi decent Mexican tacos around Austin is impossible. La traila on the other hand really impressed me, their tortillas are super fresh and just how homemade Mexican tortillas should taste like. The inside was a omelette of goodness. I got el flako which is eggs, mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, onion, and cheese served with real salsa verde. If you go YOU'RE IN FOR A TREAT! read more

Do you like breakfast tacos? You live in Austin, of course you like Breakfast Tacos. Well then taco lover, you already know there are about a million choices in Austin when it comes to eggs wrapped in a tortilla. You can go ahead and add one more option to that already expansive list. La Trailá may not be the most exciting place, and it might not do anything really new or different, but damn it is pretty good. They have all the standard egg + meat (or potato, if you're into that) tacos as well as a few big specialty tacos. They also have this great spicy green salsa that is quite delicious. The tortillas are apparently all handmade as well, and that's pretty rad. The cost is pretty good as well. I pay roughly $1.50 for a eggs/meat taco, and roughly $2.75 for a eggs/meat/taters/avocado taco. So, La Trailá is pretty great even if it's pretty unexciting. If you happen to be driving down Mesa you should stop by and give it a shot. Oh yeah, and they are cash only... so make sure you bring some green paper. read more

Stumbled upon this place in the corner of a gas station parking lot across Anderson High School. It turned out to be a pretty great experience. When it comes to tacos, I have a few go-to's and favorites that I use to judge a place. I went with migas, tripas, and carne asada. All three were well done with the tripas being the best of the group. I know some people may not be a huge fan of tripe, but as someone who grew up in South Texas, good tripe on a homemade corn tortilla, topped with onion and cilantro is as good as it gets. This place definitely passed the test! The migas was pretty good as well (a notch or two below Veracruz), while the carne asada was above average. The tacos came with a mild red/orange salsa and a fiery hot green salsa, so be careful if you're sensitive to spice. Overall, this is a great spot to pick up a quick and cheap lunch. Everything came out to about $8 and the tacos came out hot and fresh in less than 5 minutes. read more

I found this place about a week ago on my way to work, and have been back twice for the lengua and barbacoa. While some have pointed out that Austin has a lot of good authentic breakfast tacos (completely true), that is absolutely not true of this part of Austin. So I am very appreciative of what these guys are doing: homemade corn tortillas and rich, intense salsa, without having to travel to Burnet or north Lamar. I also enjoyed the egg white, jalapeño, and avocado taco, pretty sweet. read more

This is my regular morning taco stop. All the guys who do construction in the area stop by here, so that's a good sign. Everything fresh, tortillas made by hand, they crack the eggs right as they put them on the stove. My wife is a big fan of the veggie El Flako (but she adds bacon, go figure). That's quite filling, as are the migas (which has refried beans) and the Anderson. I have gone minimalistic these days and just get the bacon and eggs. Cooked to perfection (not burned) and perfectly seasoned. They are $1.75 apiece (and they now take credit cards) and two are just right for me. I'm not a huge fan of the hot sauce but I'll take the green if I don't have any at home. You can get coffee and drinks at the Mini Mart, and there are a couple of tables outside. The tacos are so good that we ate thru 2 or 3 each a couple of weeks ago, and I was sent out to get some more. Now that's a mission I'll always accept! read more

I was telling my girl and friends about how much I missed this place even though I left Austin over a decade ago.

We were just going to get some coffee at Dame and imagine my surprise when I saw the trailer. I did a double take and saw the same menu and smelled the familiar garlic smell. I told my girl we were going to eat there no matter what. I ordered the naan wrap and fried rice for us to share. Imi was an awesome host and promptly made our food.

Huge portion size but wasn't quite what I was expecting. Salad was pretty standard but I'm glad they kept it separate so it wouldn't wilt from the heat. As for the chicken, I was hoping by itself it would be more thai inspired/marinated/seasoned but it's effectively just chopped up chicken tenders to be dunked in the curry. The curry is flavorful, albeit a bit watery, which I wish was reduced a bit. But if curry is not your thing, my friend's Kai Zabb was very good: tangy, sweet and heat all at once, so good to really switch up bites. And while I wasn't expecting sticky rice, I can't help but say it's the first time I've had thai fried chicken without it. All in all, I think its a great new place to try out, but if you've had thai fried chicken before, just temper your expectations.

Such a cool area to eat! It was much cooler under this covered area (which is also under some tree coverage).

Ok so then my daughter told me about the Pad Thai at Weladee, a trailer at a cute little food park on Hamilton Ln off North 183 and now I'm 100% HOOOOOOOKED! They've ruined me and I don't see how I can ever go back to the others!!! The sweet young lady that runs the place knows her stuff and works her butt off provide the best quality authentic Pad Thai available. They have limited hours and a limited specialty menu... but it's worth the wait and well worth the price. Just GO!!! I had it for dinner tonight and can't wait to beat up the leftovers tomorrow. It's that good!

Came in for lunch and i'm so happy I gave this place a chance…read more I side is filled with a bar, large tables and a few half tables/ half booths. We were served with tostadas and 3 different salsas which were very authentic and flavorful. Full bar avaliable. I had a frozen chamoy mango rita, perfect amount of sweetness and liquor! We shared the Civiche levanta Muertos- flavor was great however for 26$ there wasn't much seafood in there. We also shared the enchiladas de camaron it was so delicious, however I do feel the shrimp could have been a little more cooked. The enchilada sauce was very creamy and flavorful with a little kick. 10/10 recommend. The waitress was kind and attentive. will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

Let me get the bad outta the way because that's a very short list…read more 1. The waiter was snooty. I don't know if it was the way I dressed or looked, but he didn't seem very happy to serve his first customer of the day. 2. The location is a little "ghetto" for such a fancy restaurant. That's it! That's the bad list. On to the positives. OMG the food tho! I was upset that I had to pay $11 for one taco, but let me tell you, once the plate hit the table the magic began! The presentation was beautiful! I almost did not want to eat it because it looked so pretty. Then I took a bite...holy hell it was amazing! I had a Ratatouille, Anton Ego moment (if you have kids, you know). It was the best taco I've ever had! That's all I can say. And then came the deserts...holy sweet bearded baby Jesus it was Out-Freakin-Standing!!! I almost threw my glasses across the room! We ordered two different deserts and they were both out of this WORLD! I am only giving this place three stars because of the server and the location. But, if you can get pasted those things, you'll have at least a 4.5 star experience. Enjoy!

Drinks: -Still a Gin Jam was DELICIOUS! It has a hint of spice due to the strawberry Serrano puree, but is balanced very well with the rest of the drink. -The espresso martini was so good and highly recommend adding a shot of baileys to it... it's WORTH IT and makes the martini creamier. Entree: I had their special which was a brisket Benedict and if it's on the menu when you go, I highly recommend it. The Charred pepper hollandaise was a very flavorful and delicious surprise.

I ordered the Brussels sprouts, and while the flavor was good, they were a little softer than I would've preferred. The brisket tacos were solid, but the real standout was the short rib taquitos , they completely stole the show. We also tried the $8 margarita, and the pour was surprisingly generous.

The server was kind enough to do split checks upon request. Everyone enjoyed their dishes, so the food is good overall. Our group was split into 2 tables, which is okay, but 1 table was served way before the other table, so some of our group was done eating by the time others got their food. That was the main challenge we had. Would have been great to serve everyone's food closer time-wise. Overall, good experience and I'd come back if staying at the hotel again.

Gordough's is one of those places that fully commits to indulgence. I was able to place my order online and schedule for pick up. The order was ready when I arrived. Parking was a bit challenging and the lot was full and they charge for parking. Service was quick, casual, just good energy and fast turnaround. I ordered my tried and true Miss Shortcake with their famous cake donut with cream cheese icing and fresh cut strawberries. The donut is so indulgent and was served warm with the most delectable flavor combinations. Tried the Son of a Peach with cream cheese icing, spiced peach filling, cake mix topping, cinnamon and sugar with honey butter. This one was a bit too overindulgent and sweet for my liking but was definitely worth a try. Portions are huge and can be shared as the donut is not as good warmed over. If you're in the mood for dessert and not think about calorie count, then this is the place.

Sammie’s

Who would have thought an Italian red sauce joint would go straight to my top tier Austin recs?…read more Place is just legendary. Sammie's has been hyped up on social media for a long time and I gotta say it's still underrated! I will gladly have Sammie's take the Pepsi challenge against red sauce joints in NYC/NJ etc. In fact, I've told friends and family that I am going to take them to Sammie's when they visit from there. We just had such a fantastic experience - everything..the vibe..the red light fixtures and the color of the booths and the floor..the service - our server was great..loved their outfits..really had an old school little italy feel to it. The food was much better than I even anticipated - as a guy who grew up on NJ diner mozzarella sticks, I have a high bar for them and these were magnificent. And seriously...taking the "everything's bigger in Texas" slogan and applying them to mozzarella sticks?! top 10 achievements of the decade. The chicken parm was perfect - well seasoned, proper amount of crisp..the basil on top...the perfect browning of the cheese. Also the lasanga was excellent..and best part - the leftovers..took it home and the next two days put them in a small cast iron and re-heated them..and the magic was right there in my hill country kitchen! Lastly and certainly not least - the cannoli...just look at the photo below.. I'll say, yes, the place is pricey but you can really easily split these entrees and then it becomes cheaper than a jersey strip center Italian joint. I haven't stopped raving about Sammie's since I've been there, and I cannot wait to return, recommend it, and take friends and family that visit.

I have never been a fan of Negronis but the one at Sammie's changed my life! I order them everywhere I go now searching for that Sammie's Negroni high but nothing comes close to it. The food was EPIC! Take a look at my pics everything we ordered was prepared to perfection but I still dream about the veal which took the whole table to devour. Also the Caesar Salad was .

The space is cozy and stylish which would make for a great date night spot. I actually went with a group of girlfriends, and it was just as fun for catching up over dinner. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between intimate and lively. One thing to note is that they don't have quite as many vegetarian options as I'm used to seeing at Thai restaurants, but there were still enough choices to enjoy. I ordered the pad see ew, and it tasted really fresh with perfectly cooked noodles. Overall, if you're looking for delicious Thai food in a cute setting that's easy to get to and park at, Kiin Di is definitely worth checking out.

I was super excited when I heard Kiin Di was opening a full-service restaurant. I've been a fan of…read moretheir food truck for years and they were always consistently excellent, so I couldn't wait to see what they would do with an expanded menu. There were so many new dishes that caught my eye, but I immediately gravitated toward the Creamy Crab Curry and it was absolutely the right choice. The curry was rich, creamy and packed with flavor while the fried soft-shell crab was perfectly cooked and added a great texture to the dish. Honestly, it's the kind of meal I could see myself ordering every week. My partner went with the Lost Recipe, which looked just as delicious. You can never really go wrong with fried chicken, and this version certainly didn't disappoint. The service was equally impressive. Our server was friendly, attentive and checked in regularly throughout the meal. She even brought us a complimentary crab pastry to try, which was a thoughtful touch and much appreciated. One thing to note this place gets busy, especially during lunch so plan accordingly. That said, the food and service are well worth it and the menu is reasonably priced. Kiin Di has successfully made the jump from food truck to full-service restaurant and it's definitely earned a spot on my regular rotation.
