Breakfast Taco with 2 Ingredients
Carrie M.

These were some fat breakfast tacos that were so tasty and a good price. I got one egg and potato taco and one egg and sausage taco. The salsa had a nice, mild taste, which I appreciated. Some of it was super watery though, so there was salsa water coming out of my taco, but I can look past that because the tacos were so good. They charge a 4% fee for using card, which I wish I had checked before so that I could have come prepared with cash. Thankfully, the breakfast tacos were well priced, and it was $6.65 total for two tacos with the fee. It seems like a small family-owned business, so the fee is understandable. They also have a sign about it on the door, which I was glad about. There was a weird moment when the server handed me my taco bag. I said thank you, and she gave me such a chilling look that I got scared. I'm going to hope that I totally misinterpreted that though. She was friendly initially. The food was bomb, and I didn't dine in, so I cannot comment on the full service experience. I really enjoyed the breakfast tacos here!

Barbacoa Specialty Taco

Tacos were huge and had a lot of protein which is appreciated. Wishes the oil had gotten drained a little more. Wished there was salsa offered for the tacos. The place was very tiny but the staff were friendly and quick to take care of us.

Omg  it's like Abualita's!!!!!

After we had ordered, the people came inside and sat down at the table next to us. They were three of them, and they all received their food prior to us receiving our food even though they came in well after us and ordered well after us. For the past six years whenever I ordered the gentleman special the taco always came out Before the food. I didn't even get my taco before the table next to us was served their food. My taco came out with my enchiladas. They were through eating and left at the same time. We finally got our food. The lady never offered to bring me anything to drink. She didn't give us any silverware before or after she put the food on the table. She never came back and checked on us, but she made sure to drop off the bill. She asked us to turn off the open sign for her and was more interested in cleaning the tables than she was tending to the customers. The service is starting to slide backwards to the old Recuerdos and people are going to stop coming again. You just had an advertisement on the city of round rock website talking about a family restaurant, but there was no more than four tables to tonight and it couldn't have been worse. The ladies that normally run the kitchen, were not back there, and it really shows on how poor the performance was.

This is a cute hole in the wall tucked between Rocky's Piano Bar and the Longbranch Saloon in downtown Round Rock. It's an intimate dining room with a welcoming family atmosphere. Our server was very attentive, and we never ran out of chips, salsa, or water. I ordered the cheese enchilada plate with refried beans, and everything was delicious. The chile con carne sauce took me back to my childhood, but with a little extra heat. So good! I have found my new favorite local restaurant!

Enchilada Plate
Shauna S.

Pretty solid Tex Mex. I could drink the salsa .... And the chips were so fresh...( which they threw in as a freebie) I got an enchilada and a burrito plate. Both were pretty good. I'm looking forward to the leftovers!! It's neither the best nor worst Tex Mex I've had. I'd say it's a solid 7 out of 10...

I asked for a side of guacamole and got a side of tomatoes. The grease!! WTF! Nothing good about this place. Hey Recuerdos do better.

Beef enchiladas. Definitely a must try
Josh P.

We order recuerdos for breakfast on weekends from time to time, usually through doordash as we did earlier today. Overall, I love the food at recuerdos... it's great to help with hangover recovery imo. Today we had a carne guisada burrito and an enchilada plate with 1 beef and 1 cheese with rice and beans. Both plates came with chips and salsa and the burrito came with queso too. I wouldn't say I love their queso (maybe too salty) but it does the job. The salsa is pretty good though. The enchilada plate is our usual go-to and is so good. Sometimes we'll get that and a breakfast taco each. The burrito was tasty but a bit small for the price compared to the enchiladas, I probably won't get it again.

Chips and Salsa plus Potato, Egg, and Bacon Taco
Kisha C.

First time here. Outstanding chips and salsa!! The breakfast taco was potato, egg, and bacon and it was okay. It had too much potato on it. I did not finish it because I felt like all I was eating was potatoes. However I'm not ruling this place out I will be eating there again. I do recommend this business.

Busy place..
Bethanne A.

For the second time they forgot my kid's rice and beans for his meal. I thought I'd give them another chance and I did. Now I'm through.

Chips are AMAZING! They are freshly made and taste kind of like Fritos. Breakfast tacos are filling, taste yummy, and are inexpensive.

I went to this restaurant for the first time today. It is in RoundRock alongside the 35 freeway. I…read moremust say, I was pleasantly surprised. I had never heard anything about this place before , however, the outside of the restaurant doesn't look like anything special but the moment you walk inside, it looks like someplace where people would go when they're on vacation. It's bright and cheerful and lots of photographs and decor. Someone took some heavy thought and a lot of time to decorating this place. I absolutely love it. It's clearly a nice festive place to be. They have a very inviting bar, which looks very friendly and fun. They have many tables and some booths. They also have outside seating. They sell their own Chuy shirts, and if you wear your Chuy shirt into the restaurant, you get a discount on another shirt! When we went to lunch at 1:30 on Wednesday, it was not busy. They did have some business, however. We were greeted promptly and kindly and seated in a booth. It wasn't too long before chips came with two types of salsa; one looked like pico de gallo and the other one looked like a jalapeño cream dip. I would've loved to have tasted that, but it goes against my dietary restrictions, but I can tell you that pico de gallo was great! And the chips were nice and crispy. We were provided with place settings that each were in their own individual envelope sealed with a little sticker and labeled "sanitized"; I liked that. I ordered shredded chicken crispy tacos with rice and beans and my husband ordered shrimp tacos and a margarita. My tacos were great. I really loved the tortilla. They obviously take a corn tortilla, shaped it themselves and cook it before they fill it and the extra care could definitely be tasted. The rice and beans were good, But I really liked the tacos best. My husband said his shrimp tacos were good too. The prices were quite reasonable. My taco plate was $12. I'm really glad I visited this restaurant today and I will definitely be back to try out more of the menu! I highly recommend you visit it.

Came in for a birthday dinner. Table of 5…read more We placed our order for some drinks and one appetizer. food came out however we didn't get small plate for our chips/salsa and queso that we ordered. so we were having to reach across tables dripping dip all over- finally the waitress came back and we got some plates. We had to flag her down to place our order. order came out quick and food was good, as to be expected! I got the veggie enchiladas with boom boom sauce and the green chili rice. the texture of the rice was a bit like mush- but flavor was great! the inside of the enchilada was lacking veggies and just found a bunch of peppers - I like peppers but would have preferred more mushrooms or zucchini or really anything additional . I had a frozen strawberry marg which was fabulous. here comes the check- she asked if we wanted all separate or together . everyone except the birthday girl opted for a check for thier own order- disappointed to find out the waitress decided to split the queso 4 ways when it's not something that was ordered as a group- it's something one person wanted and ordered- I don't eat meat and the queso had meat and I got stuck paying for it. it was only a few bucks so we opted to all pay it and get out of there but I think the waitress should have verified before splitting the queso as only 2/5 of us ate it. overall i would come back as I like the drinks, nachos and enchalads here. The mishaps weren't a major issue but could have been a better expierence. forgot most pics but featured here are the veggie enchilada plate with boom boom sauce

I came back and waited about a minutes before I was acknowledged, I was sat and the waitress was attentive. I wanted to try the arepita appetizer which is normally served with shredded beef/pork or chicken on the side- to get a side of plantains instead of meat, it was going to add 3$ to the 14$ appetizer so I just opted to omit the meat all together and still had to pay the $14 ...which I don't feel is appropriate- people always wanna add money to sub a veggie for meat but never reduce the price when just removing the meat all together. Anyways, Ordered my food which was out promptly, the veggie bowl was delicious as always and the arepita appetizer (no meat) was good- reminded me of a fried potatoe cake, I used the arepitas as a vessel for my veggie bowl ! I brought the remainder of my bowl home where I bit into something very hard , once pulling it out of my mouth I discovered some beef snuck it's way into my dish- disappointing forsure but it is the first time out of about 10 times this has happened here. Prices have gone up over the last few years my veggie bowl was 18$.
