The Good: The fajitas are really good! The standard beef fajitas are easily big enough to share and inexpensive considering the portion size. Pair it with the homemade tortillas that are so fluffy and you have something truly delicious. The service is also stellar, with very friendly staff to help you out. The Bad: The guacamole is not worth your time. It's priced pretty steep, especially considering the amazing fajitas, and it just isn't well seasoned. It ends up kind of just being mashed avocado (really needs some salt, maybe some lime). The chips are also disappointing. Don't waste your time with those especially considering there are such great tortillas in the corner. The Bottom Line: Some of the best Mexican food I have had. I love the tortillas and the fajitas and would definitely come back.

This is my favorite true-Mexican food place in town. The food is delicious! I especially like their homemade escabeche and homemade tortillas. Everything I've ordered has been excellent. The margaritas are also good. The place is nothing fancy, Just great food and good service.

Have been here a few times and love it! It is so underrated to other Mexican places in Austin. They have a great salsa bar with a variety of spice levels. My favorite is the beef fajitas, the spices are so good! Also always get a pitcher of margs which are great to share. Love going here whenever we can get in!

After having lunch there I found myself enjoying the enchiladas I had ordered. Each bite was very tasty and the food was well seasoned as you would expect. They have a fantastic yet quaint salsa bar that is their centerpiece. Like a fountain. I’ve been a few times before and wasn’t over the moon but it’s beginning to grow on me.
