Tip: Ask for Jose, the server, and try the margaritas or micheladas. Also, the Monday enchilada special is a great deal.

Opiniones de Chekos Austin
Decent food at an outstanding price.
Made a stop by Cheko's today for lunch. I used to live close by and it was one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants. The restaurant is pretty much the same as I remember since my last visit but the surrounding area has transmorphed into high density residential housing, apartments and new businesses. Anyhow, the #6 lunch special is to die for. The chicken tastes like it's barbecued, spicy chipotle seasoning, freshness throughout the entire dish. You can't go wrong. Cheko's does it right.
Chekos has the best salsa in Austin and I will die on that hill. And you get your own little bowl of it that you don't have to share with ANYONE. They make the guacamole FRESH, and it's one of the only old Austin comfort gems I have left to turn to when it feels like everything sucks. Chekos comes in CLUTCH every time. not to mention the absolute GEM of a human, Jose, who's always working so hard and providing the best comic relief. My kids love him and we lean into the banter. We were there just the other day and he had a huge table sit down, and of course, before long, he had them roaring with laughter. Jose and Checkos Must be protected at all costs. The tortilla soup, the street tacos, the burrito, guisada, etc. it's hard to find a good old fashioned tex-mex dish I don't like here.
If you're looking for just plain tex-mex without pretention, Cheko's is ideal. The Friday special of $10.99 enchiladas ($6 off almost all varieties) was amazing, and the food did not disappoint! The guacamole was fresh made and very tasty. And the house frozen margaritas were outstanding, especially at $5.99! Our waiter, José tried to explain to another patron how excellent the house margaritas were, but she insisted that they were no good if they weren't made with "top shelf" tequila. Jose' - don't let her bother you. Some people would rather pay extra to appear "special" than to realize that what was "house" is perfect! Keep up the great work, Cheko's!
My wife and I come here at least once a week! José our server is super attentive and makes a killer margarita! As a local business owner I want to give credit where its due! This place deserves more attention as one of Austins hidden gems!
Jose was such a wonderful server and made the best margarita I’ve had in town! Always a pleasure visiting Cheko’s.
The exact kind of independently run Mexican place that has amazing food at a reasonable price. Their fajita chicken nachos were superb and the staff were extremely pleasant. If you're in North Austin, you owe it to yourself to grab grub here.
I came here with my in-laws and it was THE BOMB! No wait, quick service and fresh fajitas! Honorable mention for the frozen margs! Also loved our waiter Jose! He’s hilarious and made our day!
blown away by my experience at Cheko’s! huge shoutout to Jose, who was running the entire front of house by himself and still managed to provide top-tier service with a great attitude the whole time. He made me one of the best micheladas I’ve ever had. The food was amazing, fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. Everything came out hot and well-seasoned. You can really tell they care about the quality. Whether you’re craving tacos, enchiladas, or something hearty, this spot nails it. Great service, great drinks, and even better food. Can’t wait to come back!
Free individual salsa, tasty, tomatoes, not hot. Excellent spot with a great Monday night special! Other specials uncertain? On Monday, these go from their normal price of $16.99 to $10.99. they have two different 3 enchilada plates with rice and beans on special: 1. the chicken enchilada with red or green sauce and 2. the queso topped enchilada which you can get with picadillo or chicken. They also had a $3 Dos XX special same night.
Been coming here since I was a student at McCallum and I’ve never been disappointed! Margs are always good, food is always satisfying, and the staff is always so attentive and nice. Also, it’s never too busy, which is always a plus nowadays. Quintessential local neighborhood TexMex. Never leave, Cheko’s!
Had a weeknight dinner at Chekos and we loved the food. There was only one server working several tables but she did an excellent job of getting everything out quickly. The micheladas were perfect and the margs were good too. I will say this place is a little on the pricey side but at least the food and drinks didn’t disappoint.
This is the most welcoming place I've been to in years. It definitely feels like you are part of the family there. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted, told where the menu was, where to place the order and to sit anywhere we'd like. It was an older couple working the front. They primarily spoke Spanish, but also spoke some English. There were two other tables and from the interactions between the staff and tables, we thought they were regulars. It turns out they weren't, the couple there is just that welcoming. We've been to many restaurants with friendly, attentive staff, but the atmosphere of this place makes you feel at home...like you are visiting relatives. The food was good, especially the guacamole. The serving was HUGE and it was only $3! I highly recommend it. Oh, the bathrooms are super clean!!
Good,friendly, and inexpensive. I went with 6 other people. The waitress made recommendations so that means she eats there. She made real effort to accommodate my gluten free friend. The service was reasonably fast. In spite of the size of our group everything was hot and arrived at the same time. Bonus you get individual salsas. No double dipping worries.
Fantastic Tex-Mex place in north central Austin. Kinda tucked away but it is an absolute gem. Great prices, great food, friendly service. I had the Al Pastor Torta and it was absolutely delicious. My rice and beans were also fantastic. The salsa served with chips tastes very fresh, has a nice amount of spice and is overall super tasty. I would 100% recommend this place to anybody.
It's just ok. Food is decent but they don't have homemade tortillas.
Did the ownership change or something? I've been going here for almost a decade. It used to be great. Tonight they served me raw meat in the enchiladas. Another review said it might be canned corned beef hash but it looked raw to me. They have also raised prices an insane amount. I doubt they will be open much longer.
