“ The quesadillas are crispy and delicious. The food is plentiful and the large margarita does not skimp on flavor or alcohol. I had the chipotle chicken and it was solid, it was big and filling. The chicken could have been a bit more flavorful but it was still very good, the food was reasonably priced. For 2 large margs, chipotle chicken and chicken quesadilla was 55$ (with tip). Overall I’ll be coming back here for sure, the food is filling, reasonably priced and good and the margs are strong. Can’t ask for more. ”
“ OK you guys. Where do I start. This place has been here a long time and we'd never been. Finally stopped in. The food was great! Salsas are delicious and just the right kind of spicy. Enchiladas suizas with bf fajitas hit the spot so did the mojarra for my partner. Service was great, she got a little annoyed that we wanted coffee at 9:00p but made it for us anyway and was great about refills, lol. I waited tables when younger, so I get it and appreciated it. The atmosphere has good vibes, their drinks looked yummy. The restaurant itself could use some love on the walls. I'd go back though. ”
“ This is the kind of place that reminds you what a neighborhood is supposed to feel like. While East Austin is changing fast and prices everywhere seem to climb overnight, this spot has stayed humble keeping its food affordable, its doors open to everyone, and its heart firmly with the community that built it. The food is honest and comforting, the kind that doesn’t need trends or reinvention to be great. You can tell it’s made with care, not to impress outsiders, but to feed neighbors. Instead of chasing an upscale rebrand, they’ve chosen to keep prices low so families, workers, and longtime locals can still enjoy a good meal without feeling pushed out of their own neighborhood. What really sets this place apart isn’t just the tacos or plates it’s the quiet commitment to staying accessible in the face of rapid gentrification. In a city where so many beloved spots disappear or become unrecognizable, this restaurant stands as a small act of resistance and a big act of love. Supporting it feels good, not just because the food is great, but because it’s helping keep the soul of East Austin alive. ”

“ Plates were satisfying. Carbs, vegetables and meat. They were also delicious. But waiters don’t know English and communication was hard. Me and my other friend order different things but just mine came different other all was the same. ”
