I was in the area and Manager Thad helped convince me to try the place. Immediately invited me in and walked with me to get me a menu so I could order to go. I waited at the bar and enjoyed an ice water for what felt like not even five minutes and they brought my order right out to me, as Thad made sure the bartender knew who I was. read more

My husband mentioned this restaurant many times, so we had lunch at Maudie's Milagro to celebrate my birthday early. The business was pretty good; there were many families and kids. The air was pleasant and joyful. The view surrounding the restaurant was beautiful. The food was decent as well; we had Nachos Supreme and Chipotle Chicken Fajita. However, I have to say the service did not match the food. The waitress was impatient and hard to find. The check also showed that we had to pay for the second salsa for the complimentary tortilla chips. This is not usually seen, according to my previous experience with other Tex-Mex restaurants. We asked for a printed receipt and a takeout box. The waitress didn't come back. read more

ALWAYS One of my favorites! Every time is fresh and delicious! I enjoy the enchiladas, quesadillas, soup, and taco salad the most! read more

We decided to sit outside and ordered two margaritas to start. They took quite a while to come out, but they were tasty once we got them. For dinner, we ordered the fajitas for one to share. The dish came out surprisingly fast, and while the plate was hot, the food itself was pretty cold. Odd that it came on a plate. We had mentioned that we were sharing the fajitas, but no side plates were provided. We asked twice for plates and eventually had to go inside and get them ourselves. We were also only given two tortillas for the entire fajita plate. We requested more tortillas, but didn't receive them until after asking a second time. By the time our server finally brought the side plates, we still didn't have the extra tortillas and had already gotten our own plates. The margaritas were good, but the service was disappointing and the food temperature and lack of attention to basic requests made for a frustrating dining experience. read more

Stopped in to grab a margarita before heading to Lake Austin for a boat party. My frozen margarita was very good and the service was quick and attentive. Look forward to coming back to get a drink in before other boat parties on Lake Austin. read more

I dined here for lunch with some work colleagues and we had a nice time. Our server's name was Haley and she was as friendly as could be. :) We were greeted promptly and brought waters, chips, and salsa. We ordered queso because...does there need to be a reason for it? No. You just get it and love it and that's all there is to it! We were all happy with our entrees. There wasn't anything left to take home! We were offered to go cups for our drinks which is a nice touch. :) We sat inside due to the heat but there is a nice patio. Dogs are allowed on the patio but not in the restaurant itself. So plan accordingly. *Pro-tip: get there early if you can...the place was full when we left and it got quite loud. We arrived about 11 to beat the rush. read more

One of our favorites! Love the location! The patio seating is good when the weather allows, the dining room is a bit packed and sometimes a bit warm. Overall good food, good atmosphere and tremendous staff! Generally we get chicken fajitas, strait plate or tamales. There is nothing I don't recommend here! In the winter the is nice. They have double sided fireplace so inside or out you can enjoy. Plenty of parking, both in the front and in the back, and if there is a wait they have lots of room outside for seating comfortably. read more

This was a weird one, my wife and I had been recently on a run of reading Ben Rehder books. He was born and raised in Austin and still lives here, so most of his settings are in and around Austin. Including several restaurants he and his partner eat at when between cases or on a break. We thought it would be fun as we really enjoy the books to try the places they go that we have never been to and this was the first one picked randomly. I don't think we went the the exact location they did but still it works. It was very crowded and VERY LOUD when we first arrived. We still didn't have to wait long and got seated quickly. We did have to ask and wait some time for a drink menu and the waiter seems annoyed we asked for it or that they had to go get it maybe? Perhaps whoever sat us was supposed to supply it? Who knows but he was not in the best of moods for the first 30 minutes or so we were there. We tried very hard to be pleasant, friendly, smile and make jokes but nothing. There is both inside and outside seating as they have a patio area. It is on the second floor of a shopping type center. We perused the menu and there were several things that stood out but I almost always go with Fajitas on my first visit to any Mexican food establishment and did so here as well. The food was good, not the best ever but very good. If it was a bit closer it may be on the rotation but it is a bit out of our way. Shana enjoyed her food as well and it cleared out rather fast but for a bit it was loud and crowded. We found out from our waiter that he and 2 others were going to be cut as it was so slow then suddenly a ton of people showed up which may account for his early bad mood. Maybe he wanted out early. After it cleared out a bit he was better. It was pretty good overall and the drinks were nice. We had a good time overall and you are in that area I suggest you stop in. read more

I was very impressed with the food and service here! The salsa was amazing and actually had some heat to it, and the ingredients were fresh. I got the Regular Dinner, and I was more than stuffed after. Pretty good value at around $14! I'll be back. read more

I meet a good friend here every couple of months for lunch. And today was one of those days! It's consistent, reasonably priced, and good.

Great go-to for years. We love basically everything on the menu. Service at the bar is always great.

Great place to hang... nice outdoor heated area... beef, shrimp fajitas are always good. Pete's tacos great!! Chicken tortilla soup is popular. read more

I've never had a bad meal at any of the Maudie's locations in Austin and this first visit to the Milagros location was no exception. Work has been taking me to this area more frequently lately so we came here for lunch. Getting into the restaurant is always a bit of a challenge due to the never-ending construction on 360 but it's worth the effort. I usually park around back. Like always, I got the Regular Dinner with beef enchiladas. So delicious! The food is cooked on the plate so that plate is hot enough to peal your skin but it keeps the food warm the whole meal. They are very accommodating about tweaking your order but I love the rice, beans, and taco just as they come. The taco is so full that I've never attempted to eat it as a taco. Instead, I chop it up on the plate and eat it as a taco salad. What I like best about this location over the others in town is sitting on the terrace. I love the high vantage point and the serene peaceful view. What's not to love? read more

My first time coming here and it was a pleasant experience. Service was great and the food was good. I ordered the Spinach Tomatado Enchiladas and the Christmas cocktail (Tito's, Orange, Grapefruit & cranberry juices). The enchiladas were good. Spinach and mushrooms with cheese! Yum. The grilled zucchini was delicious. Can't wait to try more of the food. read more

Food and service are always good. I've never had a bad experience. This review is to complement the management on letting the servers be engaging with the clientele. Our server today, Julie, was friendly and funny. She made our lunch even more enjoyable than usual. read more

Maudie's is another Austin area Tex Mex staple. Food is better than average and reasonably priced. The margaritas are standard fare - sometimes, a little on the syrupy side for the house version, the top shelf are pretty dang, tasty and blended well I typically sit at the bar, bartenders are typically very interactive, friendly, and on top of their game. Several locations in town, all equal... Good choice to get your Tex-Mex fix. read more

Addicted to the Salsa... It should be bottled and sold. I was at the 360 location and there must have been someone's abuelita back there putting her skills to work! read more

We stopped in for lunch and were very happy with our meals. The enchiladas had terrific soft chicken and flavorful sauce, while the tacos were stuffed full of chicken and vegetables. Our margaritas were made well and tasted great. Also, since we know we all judge places on the chips and salsa, here they are really good. The salsa had just the right heat and the chips were crisp. read more

I went here for happy hour with a few friends. The food was alright for TexMex and I enjoyed my basil cucumber margarita. I was disappointed in the service. However I'm not sure if they're just short staffed but it took very long to order, get utensils, a glass of water and for the food to arrive. I can't recommend this place because I'd hate for someone else to wait as long as I did. read more

Let me start by saying I am I big fan of Maudie's. My whole family loves the enchiladas and any time we're near westlake we'll stop by. That being said, we had an AWFUL experience with the server, Armando. He was slow, rude, and incredibly inattentive. We sat in an almost empty restaurant for almost 30 mins waiting to order. He then comes to our table and says "what do you want?". No apology for the wait or anything. He also failed to mention a very expensive up charge for our veggies and we got the surprise with the bill. A little transparency would be nice next time. All in all we will probably be back, but this was a very poor experience and we expect better from Maudie's. read more

Maudie's has been our family favorite for over 20 years. Countless wonderful memories and happy bellies! The staff is always super friendly & the restaurant vibes are top tier. We have different dietary preferences/ restrictions & they make it easy for us to order. We love you Maudie's!!! read more

As usual, the food was good & the frozen margaritas even better. This is one of our favorite go-tos close to home.

Love Maudies! Their Mexican Martini is the best!!! We also like their food which you need to eat if you are going to drink their Mexican Martini or you will end up finding your head hurting the next day. read more

FYI- not too big on texmex. But the flavors were pretty consistent with most of the TexMex locations I've tried. Friendly service, basic restaurant ambiance read more

The food is generally very good, and we typically order takeout; however, failures in their quality control to ensure orders are complete, with all requisite order ingredients, continue to be more and more prevalent and unacceptable. In the past, takeout orders have always been very timely, and exactly as ordered. However, of late, we continue to experience incomplete orders on a more frequent/routine basis. The first occasion was a few weeks ago when a main ingredient was not included in one of our entrées (the meat for a taco). This was an incredibly surprising and disturbing omission, and unfortunately wasn't determined until after having completed the 35 min drive back home. Last week my Fajita Plate was missing the separate container with all the accompanying ingredients, i.e., the guacamole, lettuce, cheese, and pico. Once again, the omission went unnoticed until I arrived at home. This week, our two entrée orders included the usual tortillas, and we requested flour/corn for each order. However, all the tortillas were missing. While I did check for all other ingredients before I left the restaurant, I never thought to check for the inclusion of the tortillas -- a main ingredient for my Fajitas, and secondary for my wife's Enchilada plate. And again, unnoticed until I returned home. In the future, should we decide to order takeout from Maudie's again, it must now include the decision on whether it is really worth the time that is going to be necessary to check for the inclusion of every item before leaving the restaurant -- or simply just order elsewhere where it can/should be expected that the order will be properly completed, with all ingredients present. read more

Moved up the road to the DFW area, visiting in Austin, remembering the bad dining experience from the previous review. Made me sad, considering the literally hundreds of meals I've enjoyed at a number of locations over the years. So stopped in for dinner and really enjoyed it. Excellent chips and fabulous salsa, best in class queso. Crispy taco makes a nice "salad" course before the enchiladas. Enchiladas were perfect, nice amount of chile sauce, chopped onions, melty cheese. It's long been one of my favorite Austin meals, and they hit the nail on the head this time. Happy to take the time to bump them back to a solid 5 star in my book. read more

I'm so confused by the prices on the menu. My server definitely held back on advising of extra charges. My daughter had a kids meal and the price was more on the bill, I asked for tomatillo sauce on my cheese enchiladas and that was a $1.50 charge, one meal was supposed to come with a side of queso and when I asked for it they charged me for a small queso (an additional $6). I will not be returning with my children that's for sure. read more

Maudie's has some great food. I got tacos like I always do and love the salsa as an appetizer too. read more

Maudie’s Milagro - Fish tacos with avo - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

Couldn't celebrate Cinco de Mayo without true Mexican food... a friend recommended Maudie's and it did not disappoint. We arrived around 7pm and waited about an hour to be seated (granted, it was a holiday). But we were able to grab drinks and wait outside at their seating area which had plenty of benches. The margaritas- some of the best I've had. Sweet and fruity, but fairly strong. They had a full drink menu including margaritas, cocktails, martinis, beer, etc. all reasonably priced. Our grande margaritas were ~$11 for 18ounces. They also had specialty margaritas for a few extra dollars. The restaurant itself is fairly small, but the patio was very nice. Our meal didn't take long to come and the food was great (definitely not heavy/greasy like other Mexican restaurants). I usually don't care for salsa either but Maudie's had a sweet, mild salsa that I loved. The waitress was very attentive and kind too! My total bill came out to $18 for tacos and a margarita. I'll definitely return to Maudie's. 10/10 experience read more

Love this place. It's a neighborhood staple. We find ourselves here at least one a week. Great food, drinks & service. Underrated menu offering is the ranchera sauce. Sub it out for any sauce on enchiladas, etc. Great flavor and spice! read more

Made our first visit to this location last night. We were "those people" and showed up 20 minutes before closing, we knew what we wanted and tried to be as quick as possible. The servers treated us perfectly, the food was incredible and we left full and happy shortly after 9. We'll definitely be back, earlier for their sake, but they definitely earned my business read more

We are vegetarian and really enjoyed this place. Tasty food, they can make it spicy and add heat when requested. Came here with a family of seven. Nice atmosphere and very spacious. Easy parking. The food was rich in flavor, saucy, and made to order. Definitely would recommend it especially for vegetarians. Special things to our server Daniel who was amazing, stayed on top of our needs, and always smiled. Outstanding young man. read more

I am tired of coming here and getting terrible service. The enchiladas are usually good and this Maudie's is close to our house. But every time we come I wonder why in the world we come back. We are here on a pretty slow Sunday night service is terrible. The host mentioned happy hour prices and they don't even have HH on Sunday. Our waitress is a bit arrogant. After taking our order she turned to leave without saying a word. I said "You're welcome" and she finally said thank you. And nothing says "We appreciate our customers" like a basket of finely broken chips. read more

Oof. Some of the most flavorless tex-mex I've had. Do they not add salt or lime to their guac? I had to do it myself. Overall unimpressed by the service and food. Drinks were fine. It was a lot of waiting around, unattended to. I do like the outdoor patio seating option. It's nice to be there for sunset. Happy we got that experience at least. I don't think I'll be back unfortunately. read more

You know sometimes, when you decide to rebel against yelp reviews and see for yourself? Should've just trusted those reviews. Lesson learned. Went for Happy Hour for tastings. Tried several specials and drinks and there just wasn't anything that was spectacular. Not a "authentic" vs. "Tex-Mex" snob, but this just didn't do any of it. Our server, however, was great! read more

Oh man, we love Maudie's, but hadn't been back post pandemic. I know everyone is suffering being understaffed, right now, but our waiter was truly THE WORST. We tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he had four tables and it took us 2 hours and 45 minutes to eat. We had one round of drinks, a thing of queso and our entrees. There were only four of us. The food and drinks were good, but geez! Homeboy brought us the waters that we asked for and then didn't come back for 30 minutes. When it was time to go, I finally just went up to where he was standing and flirting with the hostess and handed him our card. His manners were crap. Like I said, we're understanding of the low staff situation, but this was just ridiculous. read more

I'm not sure why this place is popular. It's certainly not the food. Perhaps it's the location and ambience, and our server was accommodating. BUT the most important thing - the food - was mediocre at best. I ate about half the shrimp tacos - salty and not good. Not much flavor beyond the salt. My friend ordered chicken poblano enchiladas and they were marginal and bland. I'm not going back ever. Sorry. read more

Visited twice for lunch in the recent past. The powerbowl lite was very good, it's a layered salad with rice, beans, lettuce, pico and avocado. I added a little guac on the side. On a prior visit, had the potato rajas tacos, which were a bit on the heavy side (no surprise, esp after generously helping myself to chips and salsa). They have very pleasant outdoor seating, with fans for hot days and heaters for cool days. Parking at Davenport Village is tight but manageable even during lunch hour. Service was good during both my visits here. read more

I love the balcony at sunset! The chips are warm. The salsa is good. The menu is extensive. I rely on the chicken taquitas and the skinny margaritas to weave my mind back to 'go mode'.
