Pro tip: daily HH for both drinks and appetizers…read more I'll admit that this location isn't as intriguing as the first location (Bouldin Creek). Perhaps it's because it's less "neighborhood" and more "strip mall/highway fastfood" vibes. With that being said, the service and food options are about the same. So it may seem like you're walking into a tier above fast-food, but the quality is better than that (and, therefore, better than expected). El Alma will always be in the running for the best avocado margs in town, and their queso is pretty solid too. I'm regretting not ordering the Coca-Cola marinated pork, but am happy to report that adventuring with the duck stuffed relleno poblano pepper was pretty solid.

I sat at the bar, and the only open spot was off to the side near the kitchen. It's kind of an odd…read morelocation--not the best view--and feels more like where waitstaff pick up drinks and orders than a place meant for guests. Sit on the other side of the bar if you can. The chairs weren't very comfortable, but I did appreciate the hook for my purse. The bartender was friendly, and I was greeted right away. The chips and salsa were good, and the green sauce was favorite --I liked it so much I asked for more. The only downside is that it comes in a really small container, which makes it hard to scoop and doesn't last long. I noticed the people next to me also ended up ordering extra. I ordered the street tacos. The filling was flavorful, though the tortillas seemed a bit soggy. I ended up scooping the filling onto some chips from my chips and salsa, and it was perfect. The green salsa was the cherry on top! Sorry I didn't get any pictures this time!

I got two bistec tacos that came with carmelized onions, queso fresco (my fav), and cilantro on flour tortillas. These tacos were greassssyyyy goodness. I wish there was more queso fresco on it but the grilled onions were amazing. Grilled but still crisp and the steak was nice and chewy (in a good way).

This past weekend I suggested the Gibson Trailer Park for Michelle C. and I to grab a snack after…read moreour walk as I was craving a cold sweet treat and M had yet to eat breakfast. The Flying Carpet was not open yet so Michelle ordered some tacos from the new 2 day old La Fantabulous while I snagged a snow cone. I had a bite of both her tacos and was wishing I had not yet had breakfast or was hungry for lunch already.. The Portobella & Avocado at only .99 had all the flavor with very generous slices of avocado but still felt like a healthy choice. M's Pescado Taco was also an excelent choice - the pan fried fish and onions, white cheese and again generous slices of avocado were the perfect portion in the small corn tortilla and the green salsa packs the perfect punch of heat and flavor. The Pescado was just greasy or juicy enough to run out the other end and drip down my leg onto my dogs head;) I could not stop thinking about these tacos so much that I stopped by again yesterday for the same tacos as I trust Ms.M's choices and also got the Bean & Cheese (black refried beans, avocado and white cheese).. The Gals that run this trailer are fun and super friendly on top of putting out some Super Yum Cabo Style Tacos! They are kind of hard to find - they are at the back of the parking lot at Congress @ Gibson St behind Austin Pets Alive! The search for fresh Yummy Tacos is worth it!

I've visited Pueblo Viejo close to thirty times now and somehow, each visit still feels like a…read morelittle celebration. While not every item on the menu has dazzled me (the gordita I tried once didn't quite hit the mark and their guacamole isn't exactly winning any citywide contests,) there's one dish that keeps me coming back without hesitation and helps them maintain their high-accolaids: the Migas Tacos. These tacos are quite frankly, in a league of their own. The eggs are always fluffy; never dry or overcooked. The flour tortillas are consistently warm, fresh, and just slightly crisped on the outside like they've kissed the griddle for just the right amount of time. But the real star of the show -- the component that elevates Pueblo Viejo's Migas to near-legendary status -- is the generous helping of crispy tortilla strips tucked inside. Perfectly salted, addictively crunchy, and somehow never soggy, they bring a contrast and texture that's hard to overstate. There's truly only one other taco joint in Austin that even comes close to matching this degree of crunch factor. Now, allow me to go full taco nerd for a moment: years ago, Pueblo Viejo offered an extra-hot Yucatán-style roasted habanero salsa about which I still fantasize. It was dark, complex, smoky, and unapologetically spicy -- a unicorn in the world of salsa. I ask about it every time I visit, clinging to the hope that it might one day return. Pueblo Viejo has earned a well-deserved spot as the #2 taco destination on my meticulously-ranked list of 160 taco spots across the city [AustinTacoMojo.com]. For that ranking to hold steady visit after visit, you know they're doing something right.

My husband had eaten here before, but just tried the empanadas so we decided to come in and have lunch and try some of the other items on the menu. We both had one of the original beef empanadas, and he also ordered the chicken. They are served with a homemade chimichurri sauce, which is absolutely amazing! The empanadas are delicious, they are so fresh, so flavorful, definitely worth the drive. They do serve them individually for $6.50 each which I find a bit high, I wish they had a three pack or a six pack you could get at a bit of a reduced price because it feels crazy spending $13 on two empanadas with nothing else. We also ordered some of the sandwiches that they are known for and have won awards for. My husband went with the beef milanesa which is lightly breaded and served on their toasted bread, which again is the most amazing bread ever! I got the Lomito which is a slow cooked beef steak, simply served with chimichurri sauce on the toasted bread. I can't lie, I could see why it won an award. It was so good, tender, juicy, all of it! I got the half sandwich which came with fries and was $18. I wish I would've just spent a few extra dollars for the whole sandwich. The staff is really friendly and the restaurant is set up with some big green TVs by the bar as well as an outdoor dining area. Definitely massive flavor packed food you must try!

They do have an incredibly large outdoor shaded seating area so I can only imagine it's amazing. I've been here twice for the fish tacos I had one burrito one time I think it was called onion Hawaiian beef roll or something like that I would skip that it was OK but I would skip that and go straight to the fish tacos get the more expensive ones they taste better. Also disappointed in the nachos they were just kind of a soggy mess nothing to write home about would've been better off just getting tacos instead. The chips don't hold up to the toppings. But live and learn. Staff here has been nice both times I've come in. Ordering is easy you order either at the bar or there's a person at the counter that can take your order and then you sit and wait with a number for your order to come out They do have a nice choice of salsa bar so you can make it hot or not depending on what you like there are jalapeños lines etc. Beer selection was lacking for a bar. Do you want light beer this light beer or a different light beer or an IPA ughhhh no. How about an Amber or something with flavor? All in all it's a cute bar to go to it's not my favorite one for tacos but they are still pretty good even though mine are better at home ha ha

It is a very small menu so they do recommend the street tacos they're $2.95 and so I order the barbecue a sirloin so I ordered 2 tacos and then I also ordered the chips with guacamole that's another thing I ordered to add to the to tacos. Tables were clean there's a nice colorful walls and they do have outdoor seating. So what I would say is the street tacos were delicious very good a little too spicy for me even though they said it was not spicy but it really is if you're not used to jalapeno which I definitely avoid. Chips are bland no salt but the Guacamole was very authentic. . I was very happy to have found this place actually for meal that's less than $14 or $15 I truly enjoyed the food was authentic from Mexico.

El Meson came highly recommended so I decided to give it a try. El Mesón Tequilería is a…read morefamily-owned eatery that has been a neighborhood favorite since its opening in 2010, thanks to its ample yet comfortable space, laid-back atmosphere, and award-winning Mexican home cooking. I recently ordered the beef fajitas from El Meson and came away disappointed by several aspects of the experience. I placed a phone order and it was challenging to place my order due to some communication issues. The first issue was pricing. The price listed on the restaurant's website of $22 did not match the price shown when ordering online over $50, which was confusing and frustrating. It would be helpful if the pricing were consistent across platforms so customers know what to expect. I also requested flour tortillas with my order but received corn tortillas instead. While that may seem like a small detail, it made a noticeable difference in the meal and was disappointing since the request was clearly specified. Additionally, the fajitas arrived without any shredded cheese, which is something I typically expect as part of the accompaniments. Between the incorrect tortillas and missing items, the order felt incomplete for that price point. The beef itself was flavorful, but the inaccuracies with the order and the pricing discrepancy took away from the overall experience. I'm hoping this was an isolated issue, but I would encourage the restaurant to pay closer attention to online order accuracy and menu consistency.
