    Quesadillas
    Angelica M.

    Love coming here for great food and quick service. It usually gets busy in the evenings but the food is great, price is right, and establishment is family friendly. Best Panaderia in Austin.

    Rosca de Reyes

    Food is good and healthy. Service is okay workers are usually in a hurry and providing half fast service. Ambiance is not as clean and sanitized as it should be. Bread is good taste and presentation, but lately is coming out bland and hard. The increase of price was extreme ridiculously expensive. I understand everything everywhere is expensive but it should affect the quality of the product. I was very unsatisfied with the día de muertos bread that I bought almost 50 dollars for two bags of bread! Was ridiculous. I just bought the Rosca de Reyes it was $70.00 !!! It is tradition for our family to do the rosca from mi Tradicion, but the rosca was awful. The breath was so hard if you hit it in the place you could actually hear the sound of how hard it was. Thankfully my sister bought the rosca from Sam's it was so much better not as good as it used to be from mi tradition but definitely better than this year rosca de reyes.

    Love this place, prices are so good, food is amazing! Plenty of parking, as it's located in a shopping Centre. The cakes are delicious

    Still giving 4 stars at this point. Tried a new pastry as pictured below. It was really good. It had whipped cream, banana in the center, chocolate and cake. My only complaint is both pastries pictured were a bit dry however, in fairness I always come in super late to this bakery so that could be why. We also picked up some of the pig Marranitos. To my disappointment, I don't really taste much of a gingerbread like flavor. I recently had some at H-E-B that were honestly better. I don't have a good frame of reference though or really know what the standard is for Mexican sweets but, this bakery is helping me learn and I am enjoying that experience so I will continue to try new things until I figure out what I like best.

    While visiting Austin, I had a hankering for Mexican sweetbread, so we drove over to Mi Tradicion to check out their selection. First off, I was blown away by the assortment of choices that were available. If you could think it, they most likely had it sitting in their walls of glass cases. They had at least 7 varieties of empanadas. My favorite was the pumpkin with the sweet potato placing a close second. Wasn't too crazy about the caramel. In addition to having beautiful cakes for sale, I was surprised to see that they were making fresh, warm buns that you could purchase as they were just literally coming out of the oven! There's so much to see here that we almost missed the macarons!!!! Yes, they make French macarons at this little Mexican bakery! We had already paid and were on our way out when I spotted them in the case and since it was my birthday, I ended up getting 2 of each flavor (chocolate, pistachio, lemon, berry, strawberry, and something else), and they were pretty good! What a nice surprise to be able to find my two favorite desserts - empanadas and macarons, in the same location!

    That rush hour traffic in Austin is lethal. If it starts raining too, oh buddy, what a nightmare…read more Eventually you'll make it to your destination and if it's half as good as El Alma, it'll be a sigh of relief. I've driven by El Alma many times being in the Austin area, but I never went until last Thursday, and after surviving a brief monsoon, I was glad to get a few drinks and eat some good TexMex with my large party just before a wedding. The best way to describe El Alma is that it is TexMex that is Austinified. Everything feels a little more unique and special than your classic TexMex options. I started off with a Mezcal Margarita that put a little hair on my chest and got me going. My group ordered two of their Nachitos, which were these nice nachos. For my main entrée, I got 3 Al Pastor tacos on corn with a side of their rice and beans. Their pastor was served with pineapples, onions, and cilantro with limes on the side. They were great and I immediately crushed them all. I thought their rice and beans were pretty good as well and a step above the typical TexMex rice and beans. The server was pretty attentive throughout our whole visit, and I honestly have no complaints about what they had to offer. Pricing on the meal and drinks was pretty standard for Austin, and I didn't think anything really took me out of the experience. On top of that, for being in Barton Springs, there is quite a bit of parking. I would love to come back at some point in the future and hang out on their rooftop bar because that seems like a lot of fun. Shoutout to El Alma for being a TexMex oasis saving me from the MoPac traffic. RIYL: TexMex, but better than your average

I have not found a taco place that was phenomenal until I tried this place! The vibes take you back to Mexico with authentic tacos served simple, straight forward, and let the taco speak for itself! We were downtown for a concert at the Moody Theater and were hungry so we decided to walk a short 9 mins to Taqueria De Diez! The best decision made! Full disclosure... the establishment is located down a very DARK creepy alley (the kind in the movies where you shouldn't go down to get) but after overcoming that fear... this will be the best decision you make! Your tummy will thank you! Follow the outside "TACO here" sign. Go through the door and walk straight... this will get you through the line. Lucky for us on a Saturday night at 10:30pm there wasn't a super long line. We managed to grab two seats to chow down our tacos. You will be able to see the chefs cook the carne asada on the grill and the Al pastor on the spit roast being cut to be put in tacos. The smell was amazing and you know you're at a legit place! Ordering: -Check out their menu while waiting in line so you know what to order when it's your turn. -place order at register. They accept visa, Mastercard, Venmo, cash, but does NOT accept AMEX. - grab your drinks if you purchased some. Mexica soda, horchata, jimicama drinks, water , etc - give your ticket to the expeditor and tell them to go or dine there. The expeditor will ask you cilantro, onions, and salsa on a taco? Say yes. It's a must. The expeditor will tell the chefs to assemble your tacos. (I'm seriously so impress with how efficient and quick their service goes. We waited maybe 5-10 mins and got 5 tacos and chips/salsa. There was about 8 ppl in front of us but the lines go quick. If you ordered chips and salsa then you will get the chips from the cashier and the salsa from the expeditor. * 1 Al pastor taco on flour 4/5: love the fresh pineapples on it! The Al pastor had crispy pieces and was super tasty! It was really tasty. There were pieces of meat that was dry but the salsa helped and pineapple. Season was really good! I was in awed with how tasty it is! Definitely best Al pastor in ATXi had! * 1 Campechano on flour 5/5: wow best of both worlds! I had this taco second and loved the combo flavor! Juiciness of the carne asada and crispy frol the Al pastor. * carne asada on flour 5/5: juicy perfectly seasoned and love the green sauce on it! Sauce was creamy and paired well with the taco. It was so so freaking good! The flour tortilla is super thin and let the meats stand out. Loaded Smokey taco and was differently the best carne asada I've ever had! After trying the carne asada I definitely think it's better than Al pastor! I'm glad I tried the Al pastor taco first before the carne because I think the carne asada would have outshine the Al pastor if I had it first. It was a great end to the last taco! * 1 VOLCAN- couldn't try because it was sold out * chips and salsa 4/5: chips crispy and not oily. Salsa was super spicy but good. All tacos come with onions cilantro and salsa with no additional cost. Overall do I recommend this place? I truly wish I tried this place 5 yrs ago when I moved to ATX! I truly highly recommend this place! Do not wait 5 yrs to go try this place or you will be full of regrets! It's a simple taco but made right with complex balance and flavors! I love love love it and now will be thinking about these tacos! Highly recommended! Prices are reasonable and the tacos are made with love!

It was a Saturday night, and my friends in I were downtown looking for somewhere to eat. We found their sign down on the street and decided to try them. Immediately upon walking in, we felt unwelcomed. We waited 10 minutes at the front desk for someone to even address us, and then were told to wait while they cleared off a table for us. Twenty minutes later, we went back up to ask about the table and were actually told by the staff that they forgot about it. Finally a table was set for us and we sat down. We all ordered drinks and asked for water at this point. The water was brought, but we waited and waited for our drinks. After another 20 minutes and watching the bartenders (who were not busy this evening) make no moves to make our drinks, we got up and left. I have never had such an experience at a restaurant before. I guess if you do not have a reservation, you are unwelcome here.
