I am a regular at Matt's El Rancho and it consistently delivers exactly what you hope for from a classic Austin institution, consistent flavorful and delicious Tex-Mex food, amazing cocktails and great service. Matt's is known for their scratch-made Tex-Mex classics and legendary house specialties, prepared fresh daily with the same recipes they have used for over 70 years. The new waitlist sign-up has been a game changer. I can now sign up for the waitlist in advance and be seated quickly upon arrival. The wait could sometimes top over an hour due to the popularity and crowd size. Sometimes parking can be a challenge to find. I usually order the KnockOut martini for my beverage and add peach purée for additional flavor. It comes with Milagro Reposado Tequila & Cointreau. Starting the meal with the Bob Armstrong dip is a must, with queso cheese, taco meat, guacamole. It is the perfect combination of ingredients for a dip and is great for dipping with their fresh made tortilla chips. Their salsa is a bit on the spicier side and is a little too spicy for my taste. For my entree, I usually get the Asadero Tacos with Beef tenderloin with grilled asadero cheese, onions, rajas in corn tortillas, served with frijoles a la charra and guacamole salad. I usually sub rice for the beans and get sliced avocado. My other top choice is the Janie's Combination Salad served with bell peppers, cilantro, celery, tomatoes, radishes, and sliced avocado. I add the Al carbon beef tenderloin meat for the protien and the queso fresco cheese. It comes with a cilantro vinegrette which brings all the salad flavors together. The restaurant has a fun, energetic vibe and can get a bit loud. They have indoor and outdoor seating options, and the bar is a great place to sit if you want to watch a sporting event. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual night out when you're craving traditional Tex-Mex food and don't mind a busy scene. Not the place for a quiet dinner, but definitely a staple for Austin comfort food. read more

The worst experience I have had at Matt's El Rancho, and I just want to say and clarify that this was only on this occasion because of the waiter named JOE R. Matt's is one of my favorite places with excellent service and delicious food, but this time I left with a bad taste in my mouth and a very unpleasant experience. It's also worth mentioning that we were celebrating Mother's Day, which made the situation even more unpleasant. La peor experiencia que he teninido en Matt's el Rancho y solo hablo y aclaro que fue en esta ocasión por el mesero de nombre JOE R. Matt's es de mis lugares favoritos con excelente servido y comida deliciosa pero esta vez me fui con un mal sabor en la boca y una experiencia muy desagradable. Cabe mencionar que estábamos festejando el día de las madres y pues aún más desagradable la situación. read more

This place is always packed. It's become an Austin monument, and at one time made simple but fresh and tasty classic Tex Mex grub. Aside from the impossibly thin and crispy totopos, everything I have ordered over two visits in the last year has been mediocre at best, and physically inedible in effect. The "El Rancho Salad" features a little of almost everything: taco, enchilada, guac, queso. lettuce. tomato. Aside from the single enchilada served on a separate plate, the "salad" was more like a trifle. It was literally impossible to distinguish one item from another. The "taco" was a lone, bare corn tortilla, with its intended picadillo filling (cold and obviously not made that day) located inches away under a pile of iceberg lettuce. It took me a few minutes to realize that the broken corn chip shingle with a miniscule amount of melted Velveeta was supposed to be the "queso." The guacamole was there-somewhere. I only located it because of its distinctly green color. I was there at 6:00 PM on a random Wednesday. The service was polite but rushed and the waitstaff seemed to be under a lot of pressure. I had to tell a member of that staff three times that, no, I'm not finished eating and please don't remove my plate. It was a stressfully unpleasant experience, and as previously mentioned, almost impossible to consume what was served without treating it like a stew. The El Rancho salad was unappetizing, and none of the subtle flavors I remember were there. It was not prepared with care. and the sloppy presentation told me all I needed to know about quality control at Matt's these days. I've had better at Taco Bell, a place I've only been out of dire necessity. I'm truly glad that this place is successful as it is, but I long for the days when dining at Matt's was enjoyable. read more

We came in on a Sunday evening and even though it was busy we got seated right away. This was my first time at Matt's but I understand it's a very popular place. The space is beautifully decorated and is much bigger than I thought. We shared the knockout martini and it was strong and delicious. Also a very good size so very shareable. I then ordered the deluxe dinner and that was just ok. I was confused by how it was presented. I first got the guac salad with a crispy tortilla with some cheese on it? Very confused by that. Then the other portion came in a separate plate. The rice, enchilada and pork were good I just wished it was served warmer. Overall, for the price point I would not say it's worth it expect for the drinks but I'm glad I got to experience it. read more

Not sure if I understand why this place is so busy all the time. I was able to put myself on the waitlist before getting there so that helped us not have to wait 2 hrs at the restaurant. Be prepared to fight to find a parking spot if you decide not to valet. Overall I was disappointed with the food. I ordered the fried fish tacos on the server's recommendation and they were bland and not crispy at all. The table also agreed with me that the fish had no flavor even after I added the coleslaw and sauce to it. The rest of the meals that arrived weren't anything to rave about either. We left disappointed with the food and wait time. You can find a better Tex Mex restaurant in Austin for half the wait time. read more

We first tried to go to Matt's El Rancho at dinner time on a Saturday but there were 132 parties ahead of us on the wait list! We tried again on a Monday at 6:30pm and we were seated immediately. The staff at the hostess stand were super friendly, as was our server. The patio has huge table umbrellas as well as some shade trees, so even in the heat it's comfortable. Big props for having an actual healthy salad choice! My salad had veggies, avocado, and grilled chicken but wasn't topped with all the fattening, unhealthy items that are typically heaped on restaurant salads. It was fresh and delicious! read more

Can get super busy and crowded. My brisket enchilada was extremely average. The salsa is spicy which I appreciated. The dip they're known for is decent but nothing special. I've had more flavorful queso. The fajitas are seasoned excellently though. If you go, don't get anything other than the fajitas. read more

A meal on the patio in the warmth and sunshine after being in cold stl was exactly what the doctor ordered. This place is huge and is still somehow on a wait at 2pm on a Friday (props to that). The patio is really lovely, you definitely feel like you're cut off from the hustle and bustle outside of the restaurant. The queso and chips hit the spot, and for my entree I ordered the asadero tacos which came highly recommend from the regulars in my party. The tenderloin was sooo good and it was smothered in cheese. What more could you ask for?! The staff was friendly and very attentive. Looking forward to returning! read more

Wow!!! What an experience. The place was hopping. Though it was crowded our wait was less than 20 minutes. The food was good, the service was good and everyone was having a good time. I was a little disappointed that I could not order from the children's menu and that there is no senior plates available. It's just a waste of food and a dent in my pocket book that I had to purchase a regular plate. read more

Finally tried Matt's El Rancho and I have to say that the service was fantastic! Our cups were never low on water and our server was super nice. The patio was also super cute! Unfortunately I was super unimpressed with the food though. I got the Matt's special which had green enchiladas and a taco which was actually a tostada. Both items were just very mediocre. Everyone that I was with felt the same way about their entrees as well. We were also a little surprised that they weren't willing to split our check even though it was just four of us. read more

I'm interested as to why this place is so divisive. It's solid Tex-Mex. The chips are gigantic and crispy, and come with fire roasted salsa for dipping. We also got guacamole & Bob Armstrong Dip ($10, Queso with meat and guacamole) which were both excellent. The guacamole ($13) was super chunky. The grilled fish tacos ($20 for a plate) are gigantic and wonderful. They are rolled up like burritos and have lots of protein. The flour tortillas seem homemade. You can dip them in the ranch or cilantro sauce. Between us three girls, we finished 3.5 tacos. Staff were cheery, albeit a bit slow. Margs were good as well the interior is festive and classic Tex-Mex. read more

Matt's El Rancho has received what we would call legendary status in the Austin food scene. This had us coming in with high expectations, something only reinforced when we arrived to a jam packed parking lot and beautiful outdoor facade. We placed ourselves on the waitlist well before arrival and times it just about as well as we could've; something we would highly recommend. They don't seat incomplete parties which we ran into an issue with as we had 2 people missing but they made quick use of the valet parking when they arrived and we were seated quickly after that. The interior is very nice, old school in a way which adds to this staple and authentic feel. Once seated, at a nice family style round table at that, we were brought out 3 huge baskets of tortilla chips. The complimentary chips are pretty good, a bit lacking in salt, but the salsa they have makes up for it with a nice punchy spice that lingers a bit. Ordering was quick and the service was decent as well. We ordered a cheese quesadilla and the brisket flautas with tomatillo sauce. For a restaurant as packed as it was and with us having a party of 6 the food came out pretty quick. The cheese quesadilla was fantastic. It's a relatively easy dish that a lot of places manage to mess up but it was spot on here, simple and tasty. The flats were also very good, savory and filling with the tomatillo layering onto the bold flavors. The Mexican rice and refried beans were also pretty good as well. Everyone else seemed to really like their food too, although one person was not a fan at all of their tacos which came looking pretty bland and on a hard corn shell. By the end of the meal everyone was happy, some remarking about how good and strong the drinks were there. For a restaurant as popular as it is, the price felt fair and the value was decent. The truth of it all is that Matt's is good, truly, but it isn't great. There are other Tex-Mex places in Austin that match the quality of the food here for cheaper or with larger servings. Admittedly, the vibe here surpasses those places by quite a bit so that's something to consider if you're weighing up your options. We would say this is a good spot to bring friends or family visiting in for the vibes and good food alone, but if you're someone specifically seeking out the most authentic or best Tex-Mex that Austin has to offer then there may be a few other places to consider. read more

Oh Matt's El Rancho Tried and True. Not quite sure the low reviews? This is the epitome of an Austin downtown TexMex hometown Mexican spot. You walk in and are rushed with the sensation.... this is where you bring your families to. Helping towards that ambiance, we happened to come here lunch time during the Christmas season. Large sized parties of families holding gifts galore sitting and waiting, sitting and eating. It was a welcoming sensation to feel that this restaurant gives off family vibes. Even with all the parties, our walk in of 4 was still able to be seated in say maybe 10 minutes? Barely enough time to order a beer and Matt's Knockout Martini from the bar while we "waited". Had one sip and WHAT table is ready! The service was quite impressive for how busy and packed the place was. Also guys...lunch is how you do it. How can you beat $12 for a meal? And a fulfilling meal at that. They don't play. And for the kiddos, $7 including a drink is right up their alley. Shirley Temple sure! Limeade sure! It's been quite a minute since I've been here but upon returning I can truly say this is a place I'd come back to. And if you ever need a place to bring all your extended family for good Ole TexMex - this place is just for you. read more

After being in Austin for several years (and hearing mixed reviews of this place), we finally pulled up to give Matt's El Rancho a try. Glad we did! The ambiance is fantastic. What a cozy hidden gem off of S Lamar! Both inside and outside are packed with tables and lots of seating for patrons to enjoy their meal. The service was super friendly and fast. As someone told me in the line at the counter... the mine can be super long, but the service is really fast, and tables turn over pretty quick. An 1.5hr wait might not be that long. Now the food. The salsa is spicy. The super up queso is delicious. I got the chicken enchiladas my first trip, and they were good but not great. But my spouse's Asadero Tacos were incredible. Which is what I got my second visit. Excited to try more items off their menu. read more

First, I was surprised by the amount of children under 5 here on a Friday night, where drinks appear to be the very next step after placing yourself on a wait list. But I'm starting to see that Austin has a lot of family friendly alcohol venues. Maybe that keeps the adults in check. People watching was quite entertaining while we waited on the side for our table. A balloon animal artist was set up nearby, providing some relief for impatient children. I enjoyed the ranchy vibes here. We were seated outside under big red umbrellas with fly swatter machines at the tables. They don't work that well but better than nothing as you fight against flies for your salsa. It was busy but you don't feel like you are on top of each other at all. The chips are huge and hat sized. The food? Pretty decent. Not the best Mexican you'll ever have but not the worst. The margs? Fantastic. Service was solid. Matt's El Rancho is a good time. read more

Bruh. Texas Monthly lied to me, I most definitely did not need to try the Asadero taco before I died. Everything was wet?? The asadero taco itself had some sort of soy sauce taste, which is fine, but not what I expected. It was very rich to where I couldn't eat the next one. The brisket tacos were pretty good and the queso was your standard Tex Mex. Table salsa was delicious and loved the size of the tortilla chips. read more

Came here on a Friday with a large group and we had a solid experience. They seated us pretty quickly and service was nice, no complaints. The drinks are pretty expensive but very strong. I loved the guacamole, tasted very fresh and the queso was good too. The carne asada quesadilla was mid, didn't love it. My friend thought the same thing about his beef enchiladas. Overall: pricier place in ATX for mid Mexican food, but very energetic vibe and strong drinks. read more

I feel like Matt's is Austin staple. Not fully sure why. But figured why not go to a staple while showing friends around town. Tried the carne this time. Honestly so much food. I enjoyed it. Maybe would like a bit more meat. The guac was yummy along with the Margaritas. The server was quick and helped to keep everything moving. The feel of the restaurant is a bit too crowded for my liking. The saving grace for it was the size of the parking lot for the crowds. The line was out the door and got sat quickly even on a Texas game day. read more

From my understanding, Matt's el rancho is a restaurant very well known in Austin Texas. Depending on the vibe you're looking for, can come in for a family lunch. Or come in closer to dinner to get a packed bar with a lot of a young crowd. We decided on the lunch today and I had their must try tacos. The meat was extremely tender and they had just the right amount of each ingredient sprinkled on these. The cheese bowl is also incredible with a packed punch of a lot of flavors. To top it off, great salsa. Cheers! read more

Matt's is always good. Great food and great margaritas! My favorite Mexican food restaurant!!!

4 stars for the service but 3 stars for the food. The service was phenomenal from the moment you walked in and then throughout your meal. I am putting 3 stars for the food - I've eaten Mexican food, Tex Mex, and all other variations literally across the US and am used to authentic Mexican food. I came in knowing that it's Tex Mex but I would still say the food is just ok. Really you're going for the margaritas and some food to accompany it. I had the fajitas, sopapillas, and Cadillac margaritas. I wish the food had more flavor across the board. read more

The restaurant has tourist-trap vibes. I don't think the Google reviewers are discerning diners. The quality of the food does not justify how expensive it is. Food Ribeye tacos: 5/10; too much steak sauce and toppings, and not enough ribeye. The flour tortillas were drenched. Queso and chips: 7/10; chips were fresh and crispy, but the queso tasted like it came from the grocery store. It also got hard and thick quickly. Fried shrimp: 8/10; shrimp were big and seasoned; fries crispy and salty; tartar sauce was good. The blackened ranch on the side salad was tasty. Service Despite the large number of guests, we didn't have to wait long for a table. Our server was fast and attentive. He was also hospitable. No complaints. Ambience It's fine. read more

We have been eating at Matt's El Rancho since it was on 1st St. It has always had consistently good food and efficient and friendly service. However they now have valet parking so the whole back part of the parking lot is blocked off and mostly empty while cars circle and converge on any car that looks like it is backing out. Not wanting to add $9 plus tip to the bill we circled for 20 minutes past our entry time and finally gave up and left. We will miss El Rancho. read more

Finally decided to try Matt's El Rancho after hearing so much hype and constant claims that it's the best Tex-Mex in Austin. I'm Mexican, so I didn't go in expecting authentic Mexican food, but I still didn't expect to be this disappointed. I ordered Matt's Special, and the taco ended up being more like a tostada -- not a huge deal, but definitely odd. The green chicken enchiladas were topped with "queso" that tasted like cheap yellow cheese, and the chicken was mostly dark meat with an unpleasant taste and smell. On a more positive note, our server was excellent and my margarita was pretty decent. I'm glad I finally tried it so I could see what the hype was about, but unfortunately it just wasn't for me, and I won't be going back. read more

Matt's El Rancho - Chicken Enchiladas - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Went there for a work lunch while in town and was pleasantly surprised. First of all, PLENTY of seating to accommodate the lunch rush (felt like every corporate worker in the area was there for lunch). Secondly, as it is typical of any mexican restaurant, you sit down and enjoy your chips and salsa while you order. Chips were thick, crunchy, and fresh, but the salsa was really the star! Not watery at all, good flavor, well blended, and with a good kick to it. Their lunch menu offers some solid options for very reasonable prices, and the portions are huge! If that was a dinner portion I'd have been content honestly! Went for the al pastor platter with rice, beans, and salad. Meat was super tender and flavorful, rice was well cooked, and the beans were surprisingly good! I'm pretty sure we'll be adding this restaurant to our rotation of lunch options while visiting Austin for work. read more

We had a great time at Matt's! We went for lunch on a weekday, and it was pretty busy. Loved how you see into the kitchen as soon as you walk in. We ordered the Bob Armstrong Dip, but with the meat on the side as I don't eat red meat. They were very accommodating with it! I ordered the green chicken enchiladas and everyone else ordered the asadero tacos. I loved the enchiladas with the queso on top - so good. The chips and salsa were also really good. We liked how the salsa had a bit of spice to it! read more

We had multiple people rave to us about how amazing Matt's food is. Even checked Reddit to see what the buzz was about, but didn't find much. Right off the bat, the smell walking up to the front door was incredible it really got us hyped! We started with chips and queso. Unfortunately, it tasted like melted American cheese off a microwave. Definitely not a strong start. They don't offer horchata, which isn't a dealbreaker, but a little surprising for a Tex-Mex spot. My wife got enchiladas and I ordered the flautas. The flautas were soggy definitely not crispy like they should be. Honestly, they felt more like enchiladas than anything else. We really wanted to like this place, especially with all the hype, but it just didn't deliver. Not sure what we missed, but sadly, we left underwhelmed. read more

I must admit that before I visited Matt's, I was worried that this might be an old school Austin joint trading on its name and glory days of the past. I was wrong. The food here is excellent and stands up to most any other Tex-Mex restaurant in town very well. My experience found it to have a very comfortable and well maintained dining room (too hot to sit on the lovely patio and garden). Service was cheerful and attentive and made the entire visit very pleasant. The food was very much typical of Austin. Guacamole was creamy and although not my preferred style (I like a rustic chunky version), it was delicious and disappeared quickly. I had the al pastor lunch special which came with charro beans, Spanish rice, and chopped onions and cilantro garnish. The meat was super tender and flavorful and I could not find any fault with the entire dish. I had so much food I just barely finished lunch. There was enough meat for at least four tacos. If you've not been to Matt's before, I strongly suggest stopping in at lunch for their selection of $12 specials. I guarantee you won't walk away hungry. Highly recommended. read more

Matt's El Rancho - Let's taco bout it! - Mexican Near Me - Austin, Texas

Visited Matt's over Thanksgiving weekend after wandering around downtown. It was already packed by 6pm, but our party of three was seated in under 15 minutes. There's plenty of seating up front while you wait, which was nice. Once we were seated, the dining area felt a bit congested. The tables are close together, and I felt for the servers navigating such tight spaces. We were pretty close to the tables next to and behind us, so just keep that in mind if you prefer more elbow room. As for the food, it was okay for me, but I'm not a big Tex-Mex fan, so take that with a grain of salt. A bit too much cheese, and the guacamole tasted a little off to me. That said, lots of people around us seemed to be loving their meals. My partner really enjoyed his veggie fajitas, which came out sizzling hot. I ordered the chicken flautas; they were a bit soggy for my taste, but the refried beans, rice, and the fresh salsa were great. The salsa in particular had a perfect kick. Service was excellent. It was fast, friendly, and attentive. It's a large restaurant but gets very busy, so expect a lively, crowded atmosphere during peak times. read more

Came for my husbands birthday. Food was great and our waitress was great as well. The asadero tacos and bob Armstrong dip was so flavorful! Be warned the place gets packed and we waited about 30-45 mins on a Friday night which we expected but if you are coming from out of town, you have been warned! Also, if you have a party with multiple families, they do not split checks. We did not know this prior but ultimately it worked out ok because I covered the meal and we split it on Venmo. Wish we were told prior but not the biggest deal for such great food! read more

Always one of my favorite spots in Austin when I'm in town. When you're walking in, it looks like your average rustic spot, but, when you walk in, first thing I notice is how colorful the inside is, and then how friendly the staff is. The staff welcome you no matter how busy the place is, and once you're seated, all the wait staff are very attentive. My favorite queso in the world is the Rancho queso which they can make vegetarian, and if you're just there for drinks, you'll be more than satisfied with one of these for every 2-3 people. The poblano peppers and fajitas are similarly out of this world. I walk in with high expectations and I'm never let down. read more

Have lived here several years and finally got around to trying Matt's. Warning: they do not take reservations and there is almost always a long wait! They do have a bar with drinks while you wait however, and a large parking lot but I'd definitely recommend ubering. We arrived at 5pm on a weekend night and were able to get a table within 10-15 minutes for a large party which was great. Once we got settled we ordered the ground beef queso and some drinks. The queso was your typical mega Tex mex American cheese looking queso which was just what we needed. We got spicy margaritas that were good but super spicy, I kept swallowing jalapeño seeds which wasn't ideal but good flavor overall. For my main I had the taco salad which was decent but nothing special. Most people liked their entrees. Felt like a standard Tex mex Austin experience which is what most visitors and folks want so if that's the case you are in good hands! The restaurant itself was really pretty inside with some traditional murals and decor inside. It felt like an old Hispanic villa which was beautiful. read more

Solid Tex-Mex!! Some fun to come here on a trip back to Austin. It's been years! They have an impressive menu of Tex-Mex items. They've even got quite a few things that aren't typical around here. My friend had quail. She loved it! I had the Asodero Tacos, something I've never tried before--delicious. We also started off with an order of Matt's fries, which are essentially french fries drenched in fajita meat and sautéed onions. Delicious! The chips are also spot on. So fresh! And the salsa is not wimpy. Service was good. Yes they are very busy. Always very very busy. We did have to wait a few minutes on a Wednesday night, but they actually seated us relatively quickly. Parking was challenging, but we did find a spot in the far back of the lot. They have several dining rooms. We were seated in the main one, I believe it was the original one. It's noisy. Seriously noisy. It's not a place that you want to go to catch up with an old friend unless you can both read lips. But it's a fun atmosphere. I'll be back. I always do. read more

They have patio seating in the back. Chips and salsa hit the spot. Waitress recommended the Asadero tacos and boy am I ever glad I went with it.
