    Chips, salsa and queso
    Ruben C.

    Nice family restaurant attached to a gas station While we decided what order, we got some chips and salsa. Both were pretty good. Salsa was just spicy enough to not burn your ass but keep you wanting more. Chips were fresh and crunchy. Ordered the mojarra frita (fried perch) and man, it was good. Served with crispy fires and salad. Done right. Wife got the sope which was huge and she enjoyed. First impression was great: clean, good service and good food. Want to go back and try the rest of their menu

    Queso

    Normally, I am impressed with the speedy service and kind hospitality that Chapala offers. However, I stopped in today for a quick carne con queso and guac for a snack and received this abomination. Mind you, this had a $5 price tag and was without carne. Highly disappointed.

    Machacado
    Tessa G.

    Delicious food! The service was quick and the food was yummy. It is a casual place next to a gas station. I love the art on the chairs and tables! The machacado was flavorful and soft with a decent amount of meat. I would prefer larger pieces of meat but definitely satisfied my craving for machacado! The Asada taco was very good! The meat was salty and seasoned well and there was a good portion of onion and cilantro. The queso was thick and creamy but needed a bit more flavor. I loved how the corn tortillas on the mini tacos were lightly fried and the al pastor and campechano was very flavorful. The green salsa for the table was creamy, tasty, and lightly spicy.

    Delicious fresh authentic Mexican food! It is tucked away connected to a gas station and definitely a must try. The salsa is spicy and the guacamole is the best I have had in a long time! 10/10 on flavor. Service was excellent as well. Quick place to eat at and will definitely be back!

    Came in by chance. Was at the gas station and saw the cool looking chairs. Decided to come in for some Mexican food and was not disappointed. Quick friendly service. Great tacos and omelet. If I'm ever in the area I'll come back again.

    They took so long and the lady who took our orden was rude. When we got the food it was the whole opposite of what we asked for.

It's loaded with huge chunks of squash, bell peppers, onions, and fresh avocado. They definitely don't skimp on the chicken or the rice, making it incredibly filling. ​I also tried the Birria Taco Plate and it was phenomenal. The meat was tender and plentiful, and they give you all the right fixings--onions, cilantro, lime, and even roasted jalapeños to give it that perfect kick. ​Great portions, fresh ingredients, and total satisfaction. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Absolutely heavenly. Extraordinarily well grilled steak and pork!! Ignore the bad reviews and taste…read morethe perfection. Mouthwatering fish tacos with fresh slaw and delicious crema. The asada and pastor tacos were amazing - stuffed with perfectly seasoned meat from end to end. I ordered for pickup and it was ready in five minutes, ready at the front and the host was waiting for me with a smile. Such a friendly and professional staff. Bright and welcoming interior. Easy to access location right off the interstate. The red salsa is less hot than the green, which I'd say is medium. I ordered this through DoorDash and I loved that they had Mexican Coke! Real Mexican Coke with the labels, as you can see in my picture. I will order from here again and again. I was astonished that the reviews were so awful for this location - until I read them. I served for 3 years in college and every restaurant deserves a fair and honest review of their food, hospitality, and ambiance - the kitchen staff and front of house are working hard!! This restaurant should honestly have 4.7 stars or 4.8 - at bare minimum! I hope there is a process where previous reviews can be counterbalanced against the excellent experience I've had here. Every restaurant gets busy or has an off night. That's just how the industry works. But the meal I took home today was affordable, unbelievably delicious, and entirely unexpected. Not a restaurant that is any stranger to exceptional Mexican flavors - and one that I can imagine is incredibly consistent and well attended, despite the poorly devised assessments here. A local delight!!

Service is super friendly and the menu is so much fun - so many different options - both breakfast and lunch/dinner. This is one of those places that makes you just love Austin. I want to go back and try so many different things. The breakfast items I had were all fantastic! Migas, pancakes, tacos etc. I both recommend Mi Ranchito to local friends as well as will absolutely take my friends and family that visit to. Def on my Austin faves list!

    Very loud inside, a bit hard to hear even at the register…read more They hand you a menu and then you pass by the register to order and then have a seat. We eventually moved outside where it was much quieter but humid. We ordered a mole enchilada plate and a flauta plate. When they brought our food and asked about napkins, silverware, condiments, etc., and then we were told oh you have to get up and go back inside and get them yourselves. This was after we had left a tip at the register. So, be sure before you sit down you get your silverware napkins and condiments. No one pointed that out as we checked out and paid and left a tip. The lady at the register seemed very friendly, but she had to ask someone to substitute french fries for my refried beans and they seemed very reluctant to do so. Not sure why I told him it's OK just put the beans on it, but they finally relented and gave me fries instead of refried beans.. I have to say my mole enchiladas were barely above room temperature. The flavor was OK but nothing else standing. The fries also had that kind of frozen flavor like they've been in the freezer for a long time before being cooked. The flautas were pretty good, but again nothing outstanding. Overall, I would say we had an average lunch. It was nice to try somewhere new but I'm not sure. I would drive out the way to go back.

For my meal I tried the biscuit and gravy which is topped with an egg to add great flavor to the dish. The biscuit was huge, I couldn't finish it all. Even-though they can get busy on the weekends, the service is always good and during this visit, our server was very attentive with frequent drink refills. I love the dining space and bar area with oysters and bottles on display. I highly recommend Taste on Main for their delicious food, competitive pricing and attentive staff.

    Dropped in on a Thursday pm for early dinner so plenty of seating available. Service was quick,…read moreserver very accommodating and the restaurant was clean although we noticed a couple of flies buzzing around. Did not visit the restroom. Ambience was nice with the exception of one toddler on the other side making a little bit too much ruckus. Hopefully a one off. Our food arrived quickly enough. Major Yum yum points across the board for the crawfish dip (super delicious) loaded mashed potatoes (did I mention w Bacon) and the Steak carpaccio. Below par for the Chicken fried steak w potatoes, green beans (flavorless) and I don't know but I expected the Ceviche salmon to be..more. Not entirely a bad experience. I'd be willing to try other items on their menu next time round.
