One of the only places that has a happy hour on Fridays. Less than $4 for margs until 7 pm every weekday

Ask for the creamy jalapeno dip. Great happy hour - free nacho bar, cheap margaritas
Zac SniderJanuary 2, 2013
Best tex-mex in Austin. You'll want to put the queso in your veins. Bush twins infamously got arrested for using fake id's here.

There are often long wait times on the weekend. If you are in town and just want to pay them a visit, try your luck weekdays between 2pm and 5pm.

Always ask for creamy jalapeño for your chips.

Used to go here regularly back in the mid-2000s. It’s gone downhill; probably due to their focus on expansion to other cities. Queso was bad, guacamole was bad. Chicken flautas were okay.

Try the stuffed sopapillas, they are off the menu now, but you cam get them enchilada style- filling + sauce.
George FotopoulosDecember 17, 2018
Fajitas and margaritas at the original location. Does not get more Texan than that
