Top 10 Mexican restaurants after living in Texas for 5 years. Thank you guys!
Good food, good service. Happy to have this in the neighborhood.
I love this place n the spanish music/videos that are on when Ive been! Originally being from the border, this place is like a taste of home for me when I cant make the 5+ hour trek home. An added bonus is that they usually speak in Spanish which is part of why I feel like Im home. If you dont, that’s ok-they speak English, too. :)
The food was delicious and our server was kind and respectful
I loved the food here! Very easygoing atmosphere. I got the chicken enchiladas with red sauce and the sauce was soooooo delicious. My husband got the pazole and said it was spicy and flavorful.
My daughter wanted a burrito and looked up this spot so I said let's give it a try. The service was quick food was hot and fresh. Portions was worth the amount paid. I didn't take a before pic but here's the after. My daughter had her carne asada burrito and I had a beef fajita quesadilla. Both of us are stuffed with food to take back home. Great restaurant!
The inside of the restaurant looks so pretty when you walk in. My partner and I ordered the Torta Cubana and Torta La Placita with beef fajita. The tortas were huge, packed with meat and veggies, and the bread was perfectly toasted on the outside. 10/10 recommend getting either, but I would definitely come back for the Torta La Placita and their green salsa. The servers were kind, checked on us, and made sure we had what we needed.
I have been searching for a place that resembles the food back home and I’ve found it! This little gem on the east side has some of the best food I’ve had in Austin. The bistek a la Mexicana is spicy and very flavorful. The cheese enchilada gravy is made from scratch and very delicious. They also have a great salsa selection. I highly recommend!
It's the weekend, so time to try new tacos. Headed sorry again to La Placita. I was going to do two different tacos, but they do three breakfast tacos for $4.50, if they are all the same, so chorizo she egg on flour again for me! Fillings was good. Eggs weren't as fluffy as I'd ideally like, but not bad at all. Flour tortillas are a bit too thick, but Austin, not bad. Warmed up, but probably could be crisped up just a slight bit more. Seems like a solid place. Will try again. Three to four stars.
This place is very clean, nice atmosphere with music, fresh flowers on the tables. The waitress is very attentive and took care of us, always had our coffee topped off throughout our meal. The food is good. The average plate price appears to be $10 but they have a great taco specials and affordable side items available . I was happy to find several kid plate options that are perfect options for little ones. I wish I had taken pictures before finishing our meal but we will most likely be coming back.
The place is clean. The waitresses are nice buuuut while I was going up to pay for my food and ask for a to-go box, the waitress threw away all my leftover food and I asked for what was left on my plate to be replaced and at first they said no. I don’t mean to be rude but when you pay $24 for a meal and they throw a lot of it away, you expect to get replacement food for free. They handed me one enchilada and the cashier said they were getting it for me. I said “no, I paid for that.” Then they argued with me about getting my beans and didn’t replace the guacamole that was also tossed. I felt some type of way when it was so hard to get more food. $24 ($19 something plus tip) is obnoxious for enchiladas to begin with but not to be able to take home the leftover food was hard on my emotions. They refused to let me speak to the manager and when I finally talked them into giving me my beans it was like half a scoop. I don’t think I’ll be coming back to this place. That was embarrassing and it was way too expensive for that type of experience.
