Carnitas
Joshua V.

This place is pretty good. The interior design is nice I liked the feel of the place. The food was also pretty good there were a few disappointing things but overall good. The mole taco was kinda watered down is the best way to explain it. It wasn't too flavorful and the color was a little off. The carnitas needed a little seasoning but overall it had the right amount of fat to crunchy ratio. The chips con queso was really good and so were the quesabirra sorry if I spelled that wrong lol. They have Coke products but no Diet Coke that was a little disappointing. And every taco is kinda expensive but they are really nice sizes tacos so I guess it's ok. I'll come back for sure just not to much that will hurt my pockets lol.

Best tacos in town! We got 5 tacos and all were loaded with meat and super delicious. They make their tortillas by hand and their salsa is fresh and full of flavor. Highly recommend.

I just had one of the best margaritas ever!!! James made me an amazing Margarita! ( now you know who to ask) did I mention is was freshly squeezed! This cute restaurant was quaint but the quality of the food and drinks are amazing. I ordered a Chicken Tinga and I loved it. The tortilla was made from scratch. What's not to love

STOP SCROLLING. I Found the Taco Spot. It's Taco Tuesday, and all I wanted was a good taco. Now, let me set the stage: I grew up on the Mexican border. Homemade flour tortillas weren't a special occasion--they were just dinner. So when I see yet another taco restaurant claiming to be authentic, I'm usually skeptical. That's exactly how I felt when scrolling had me stumble across Urban Taco...then I read a review that mentioned homemade flour and corn tortillas. My interest was officially piqued. And let me tell you... THEY WERE NOT LYING. These tortillas aren't "warmed up from a package" good. They're not "restaurant homemade" good. They're grandma-made-these-at-5-a.m.-and-would-be-offended-if-you-called-them-store-bought good. Before ordering, I asked for recommendations. What impressed me immediately was that both the cashier and the server knew the menu inside and out. They didn't just point at popular items--they explained ingredients, flavor profiles, and pairings, helping me build an order based on what I actually like. You could tell they believed in the food they were serving. In the end...I chose four different catwgories Cachete on corn Pescador on corn Al Pastor on flour Asada in flour Guacamole on the side While waiting for my to-go order, I decided to sit in my car and catch up on emails because Texas weather was doing Texas weather things. A few minutes later, a tiny female walked my food out to me. I assumed it was a staff member helping out. Nope. It was the chef. THE CHEF. And that told me everything I needed to know about this place. When a chef is willing to leave the kitchen to personally deliver a fresh order to a customer, that's pride. That's ownership. That's someone who genuinely cares about the experience. Now let's talk tacos. The Cachete taco was absolutely ridiculous. Tender, rich, melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The kind of taco that makes you stop talking mid-bite. The Pescador taco? Listen carefully. I love fish tacos. I order fish tacos everywhere. This fish taco just entered my Top 5 Foods I've Ever Eaten list. Not tacos. Foods. Period. Fresh, flavorful, perfectly balanced, and somehow light while still being packed with flavor. The Al Pastor was excellent. A little spicier than my personal preference, but I completely understand why it's one of their most popular tacos. The flavor was outstanding. And the Asada? Tender skirt steak, grilled onions, fresh cheese, queso fresco--everything working together exactly the way a great taco should. Here's what really surprised me: I don't eat salsa. Most tacos need salsa to elevate them. These didn't. I never once felt like I was missing anything. The ingredients were that fresh. Every bite tasted like it came straight from a garden instead of a delivery truck. The vegetables were vibrant, the herbs were bright, and the flavors tasted clean, intentional, and incredibly fresh. No shortcuts. No gimmicks. Just really, really good food. Urban Taco managed to do something that's hard to do: exceed the expectations of a border-town taco snob. So yes, I'm telling you to run, don't walk. I'm probably going to regret posting this because my future taco orders may take a little longer once everyone discovers this place, but Georgetown deserves to know. Fresh tortillas. Fresh ingredients. Knowledgeable staff. A chef who cares. And one of the best fish tacos I've ever eaten. Urban Taco, you've officially earned my #1 taco spot..2nd only to my mom.

Amazing tacos, service, and prices. FINALLY, a good taco spot in Georgetown. Something besides fast food fried chicken. We ordered the chicken asada, chicken mole, and Birra. All amazing flavors and packed full of meat. They make their corn and flour tortillas in house and they are THE BEST! Love the idea they have of the 1/2 order of guacamole and queso with chips especially when it's just 1-2 people. Their chips are even perfect, not greasy at all and have a hint of lime. We will definitely be back, this is #1 for tacos in Georgetown. Feels great to support this family owned business.

Awesome new place in Georgetown! Located in the old Frankie's pizza place, Urban Taco is a great entry into the Georgetown taco scene! Homemade tortillas, meats prepared fresh daily, creative tacos & friendly service hit a homerun! They have a full bar & a big screen TV too!

Chicken Mole taco on corn. I had them leave the pickled onions off.
Mark S.

Awesome tacos, house made tortillas. While they have only been open for two weeks, we were told that the Birria was sold out for the third time. The chicken mole tacos are my favorite so far. The Pezcador a very close second. This former location for Frankie's Pizza has been completely renovated and had a very open and inviting decor. Full liquor license on the wall. The frozen margaritas are very good.

Mango shrimp taco to go

3 beers, 2 massive delicious, tacos & chips with queso.... Only left the house with two 20bills & my stomach & pockets are still FULL after visit our to Urban Taco. Will absolutely be back. Amazing staff too.

My husband and I are already interested after one visit in checking out pricing for possibly renting out the space for an event of our own. The bathrooms are gender neutral BUT when you go in there the different stall doors have only one label, guys or gals, on the door which is very confusing to people entering the bathroom or waiting for stalls and thinking maybe the guys labeled stall only has a urinal or something but they're all the same toilet. It has a very classy, purposefully dated look but was extremely cleaned and well maintained. They also have free guest Wi-Fi. The cocktails are a little pricey for the area, but the venue space and the quality of the drinks were well worth the price. They actually have a quite expansive menu of drink options as well. Definitely needs more seating options for the drink window area if they plan on having more open hours days for people to randomly come in and enjoy a specially crafted drink. I can't wait to see what this place turns into!

The food was excellent and portions were full. We shared a dozen oysters - they were small and sweet, we each had the beet salad and shared an order of shishito peppers - delicious!

Went tonite for our weekly date nite; first visit to Georgie's though we've been in Georgetown…read moresince 2003. Saw the name when searching seafood here. The website mentioned reservations but accepting walk-ins also; my wife made a reservation for 8 at 7:40p, and that turned out well, as the couple in front of us hadn't done so & went out front to wait. We had a very attentive waitress, & sat on a raised stage by the window which was cool, but note: tall chairs there maybe not great for short legs. When she poured our water we didn't have to request, she left the carafe, which I supposed was a labor saving idea --until she came back repeatedly and refilled our glasses with it! It aided our date night that the two flat screens had artworks displayed not a basketball game or Chive videos of folks getting injured for 15 seconds of fame. Menu is in the upper middle price range for us but we did an easy work-around to get some upscale food, anyway:: We ordered a bowl of gumbo from the appetizer list, with two spoons; (yeah, been married 41 years)... Arrived perfect temp, not to hot to dig right in. The 6 crab claws broken to expose the meat were a nice touch we've never seen; we try everyone's gumbo: prolly the best we've had recently if ever. Continuing that theme, we shared the 14 oz Japanese style (name recipes me) new horn strip, truly too much for one normal appetite: the already flavorful tender steak was helped even more by a unique brown sauce with capers: and my Dad said a good steak doesn't NEED any help. Well, this steak was so good let's just say "the sauce was gravy." We like Brussels sprouts broiled; so my wife asked when ordering the steak, which comes with creamed sprouts, if they could be broiled: instead our waitress asked the chefs who actually flash fried them with salt and pepper, perfectly, with crunchy outer leaves & al dent inside. My wife ordered a 14.00 glass of Pinot noir; the cool wine glass was a generous size --and filled generously. We like the pretentious wine descriptions from the backs of bottles; bartender let us take a photo of the label but suggested the "vivino" app to get the lowdown on any wine. Finished off sharing the bread pudding with rum soaked yellow raisins, great flavor without excess sweetness, and thanked our waitress Katy.

BROOOO the food at Hard Count was INSANELY BUSSIN. Whoever is cooking back there deserves a raise…read moreimmediately because every bite was straight-up ridiculous. You can tell the chef actually knows what they're doing the flavors were on point, everything was cooked perfectly, and I was genuinely sad when I finished my plate. This wasn't just "good bar food," this was chef's-kiss, slap-the-table, clean-the-plate type of food.

Went there for Saturday brunch. We had a reservation, but it didn't seem necessary (they thought…read moreso, too, I got an email halfway through brunch that the reservation was canceled). The waitstaff were all very kind and attentive. The food felt very overpriced for what we received. The brunch fruit bowl I received consisted of four thin slices of strawberry (not even one strawberry), two pineapple chunks and no more than 15 blueberries. The ham and eggs Benedict was borderline flavorless and the egg white was cold and runny. I love a good poached egg, but it was more liquid than poached. The tequila sunrise was musky and the flavor of the tequila overwhelmed the rest of the drink. I really wanted to like this place! However, I spent $35 on a pretty pitiful brunch meal. The restaurant seating area and decor were all nice. The bathroom had no music and is small and cramped (you can't get paper towels without either blocking the door or a stall). The people were kind and attentive enough that I probably would try it again? Maybe Sunday brunch or a different meal entirely.

That has yet to happen, but I did enjoy a nice weekend brunch there with my girlfriend and a friend from work. The bar is super comfortable and cozy. It's such a relaxing and comfortable spot. It's not perfectly designed for a dining experience, but it's greatly shaped and laid out for a bar. My girlfriend and I shared their sizable French press coffee to start. 30 oz of the Lodestar Blend from Texas Coffee Traders. To eat, I ordered the Bagel Breakfast Sandwich, which is your classic everything bagel with egg, bacon, cheddar, and mayo. I added their potatoes as well. The sandwich was good and flavorful, while the potatoes were decent. They could've used a little salt, which I didn't see on the table and never bothered to ask about, so that's on me. My girlfriend got their Avocado Toast with an egg on top. Can never go wrong with some avocado on glorious sourdough bread. Lastly, my friend got their Dutch Baby Pancake, which I tried a bite of, and whew, what a delight. Ruby's bar does a great job at making you feel comfortable. It really helps generate a good conversation on a Sunday morning, just from how relaxed the atmosphere feels. I'm sold on this spot, and I love how tucked away it is, though still close to the downtown area of Round Rock. RIYL: A lil brunch at a cute lil spot.
