Hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants in town. The food tastes truly authentic, and you can tell everything is made with care and tradition behind it. What really stands out is the variety on the menu from amazing street tacos and enchiladas to homemade tamales, sizzling fajitas, fresh seafood dishes, and incredible breakfast plates. There's something for everyone, and every dish feels full of flavor and perfectly seasoned. The homemade salsas alone are worth the visit (Best green salsa!). Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the atmosphere feels welcoming and comfortable every time. The staff is always friendly and attentive, and the whole experience feels like a real authentic Mexican restaurant instead of a watered-down version. If you're craving real Mexican food with tons of options, this is the place to go. Oh and just get a slice of the tres leches, you wont regret it! read more

Whoa! My son told me to try this place and I'm glad I did! Fabulous food and a great atmosphere. Excellent tacos and outstanding queso. We had the carne asada and the barria tacos with the queso blanco and queso flameado. INCREDIBLE!!! Go here now! You won't be sorry! read more

Great food, awful service. I've been there twice. The first time, my server took forever to refill drinks and then they charged me for the wrong table. Today, I ate there with my husband and my server got sat a 20-top. My husband and I got completely neglected. Took me an hour and a half to eat one meal and have one refill because he paid all of his attention to the other table. read more

Wanted some authentic Tex Mex while visiting Lubbock, and this was great. My son had the Carnitas Torta and a Birria Taco. I had the two cheese enchilada combo, one verde & one roja. So so so good. Excellent chips and salsa, too with a unique green salsa, plus a big salsa bar with lots of hot sauce choices. Extensive drink menu and outstanding desserts; we got the turtle cheescake and fresh hot churros -- yummy. Would love to come back on a live music night. Finally, our server, Mary, was so nice and helpful with suggestions! read more

(This review is from two visits during November 20, 2023 and Nov 30, 2023) The best real Mexican food in Lubbock, with options that stray beyond Tex-Mex fare and extend into tangible Mexican cuisine. My friend from Coahuila (Piedras Negras) says almost everything he's had here is "pretty amazing" which is a big deal. The first time I went with Claire, I got chilaquiles and she got carne asada tacos-- the rice and beans were SO good and everything was delicious. The second time I went (okay i get it was just a week later, sue me) I went with the boys, and we got carne guisada, birria tacos, margaritas, and Campechana (prawn cocktail). Once again, everything was perfectly seasoned, the campechana was tart/fresh, birria tacos were juicy, and margarita was friggin huge with two different colored salts on the rim. One thing of note, they do have a slight non-cash fee so it's best to pay in cash. By my calculations, it's just under 2%. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

Taqueria Autlan has been evolving over the years, the establishment has always been welcoming and inviting. Bigger and better with new menu options. Greeted when entering with smiling attendants. Quickly seated. Fresh drinks presented and replenished frequently. Our food was delicious and in large portions to take home for nibbles later. Clean restaurant. Clean restrooms. Karaoke on Thursday evenings is always fun. Our kids love the Mariachi when they're here. We've been attending this restaurant since our oldest was a baby, he's 9-yrs old now. If you're looking for something new and fun try the Autlan! read more

First time experience will be our last! Chips smelled like old frying grease. Salsa was gummy. Like cold sludge. Tried the other salsa options but they smelled rotten. Couldn't get the rotten smell out of my nose so we paid $20 for 3 dr peppers and left. Server had to be tracked down so I could get the ticket to leave. 100% would not recommend!!! read more

This is literally the best Mexican food I've had in Lubbock and maybe anywhere for that matter. First, the homemade chips and sauces/salsas (that's right- plural-- so many to try-- so ASK) are out of this world!!! Second, the corn tortillas are homemade and easily the best I've had. Third- the tacosssss--I had one taco birria and one soft chicken taco, with beans and salad. Both tacos were outstanding-- the birria is hands down incredible. They put a great deal of preparation in the meat and then the way they prepare the taco.... OH MY GOODNESS!!!! The drinks are also yummy. Go TODAY, and you will return.... seriously! read more

Other than is being short inside the building, they never miss on the food . I love the street tacos , they're delicious. Even when ordering a lot , it comes out at a decent time even when they have a full house . They greet you at the door and make sure you're taken care of asap. read more

When we arrived it wasn't much from the outside but it was packed. We thought there would be a long wait but we were immediately seated. A server immediately gave us chips and salsa and took our drink order! We could see the band keying up to play. We had no idea there would be music! It was wonderful. It is a little loud and if you want an intimate conversation-- this isn't the place. Inside is just a big bright square but appears clean. The food is authentic and came out quickly. My beef enchilada combo plate was good albeit a little salty. I expected ground beef and got carnitas but was tasty. Beans good. Rice okay. My fiancé got the crispy stuffed rellenos. He ordered beef on them and they forgot. My kids got the kids enchiladas and corn dogs. My daughter loved the enchilada but thought it was salty too. The corn dogs were okay. Our server was attentive and friendly! Definitely recommend!!!! read more

The Birria tacos and Birria quesadillas are nothing short of heavenly that make taste buds dance with delight. Prepared with utmost care and authentic Mexican flavors, each bite bursts with a rich and savory blend of tender, slow-cooked meat, aromatic spices, and a touch of chili-infused warmth. The Birria tacos boast perfectly charred tortillas embracing the succulent meat, while the Birria quesadillas are a delightful fusion of gooey cheese and the luscious birria filling, making them simply irresistible. The queso blanco and frozen margarita were good too. read more

I came to Taqueria Autlan based on a recommendation from a co-worker. I was not disappointed. Excellent caldo de res and tacos de birria. I love their salsa. It's quite savory and the chips seem to be made in house. I did ask for a spicier salsa for my meal. She served me a salsa that was . Very authentic food. Genuinely nice people working. The only thing I can say that needs improvement is the flour tortillas. I am not sure what it was about them but they did not seem to be made in house. It's Almost as if they were store bought, But even then I ate both of them without hesitation. read more

Excellent: menudo, barbacoa tacos, lengua tacos. Yum! I'd come back for the menudo. Not great: carne asada tacos. Dry and not so tasty. Lame: terrible salsa. Watery, flavorless, and no heat. Also, their tortillas don't seem to be homemade and weren't great. Wait staff was friendly and the atmosphere was nice. There was karaoke when I went on a Thursday evening. read more
