Vania MoncadaJanuary 18, 2015I liked this restaurant very much! My camarones a la diabla were soooo delicious and extra spicy, just the way I like. I recommend the enmoladas too and my Margarita was fabulous.
Sarah CreelmanMarch 20, 2014The Mexican creme caramel (I think its a mexican flan on the menu) is TO DIE FOR. You won't regret it ;) Totally unexpected awesome.
meniscuszine.comAugust 7, 2012The enchiladas verde has a subtly sweet sauce that marries well with chicken. Be warned, a talented but very loud band plays some dinnertimes. —WC
My downtown Tex-Mex breakfast place since the tragic closing of Las Manitas Avenue Cafe. There's better Text-Mex in Austin, but none as close to Hilton, Hampton, and Convention Center.
BobbySeptember 1, 2014Great food! Items from breakfast/brunch menu are available until 4pm (in addition to lunch & dinner menu items).
naveenMarch 16, 2010camarones a la diabla: shrimp, bacon, rice, salad and just a little spicy sauce. exactly what you need the morning, ahem, afternoon after a 6am night out

Heather Capri GistMarch 14, 2011The potato egg & cheese taco on the a la carte menu is perfect. And only $2.50!

Holly HOctober 1, 2013Worst service - had to request ice every time for my drink, got my order wrong, there were bones in my chicken enchiladas, and took foreverrrr to get my ticket or pay.
Nate BrochinMarch 15, 2010Chicken tamales - solid choice, lots of food...good value, good but not big flavor
Lance CMarch 22, 2014Took over an hour to get our food, which was mediocre at best. And while I waited, I had 4 margaritas and barely got a buzz.
David MartinezMarch 16, 2012Worst tex mex in Austin and over priced. If this is what you call authentic then rose tint my world to keep me safe from the trouble and pain.

"Order to go and bypass the line. Tried to tofu on the side today. Has the consistency and flavor to be a meat substitute. Likely to order it next time."
