"This has been one of my favorite places in Austin for Tex/Mex(mexican)I have been coming for over 7 years and it's always so good.Food-I have tried wide range of their offerings from apps to mains.I'm not a bit dessert person (sorry)Over all everything I have ever ordered has been great. Nothing major but the quality and portions are perfect.It feels like as if my grandma or a friend's mom was making dinner.Service-The staff is really really good. Typically when I would go I would have a server named Yvonne she was always so welcoming and it was always impressive that she remembered faces and folks orders. I say that because this place does have alot of loyal customers so to have someone remember so many details is very impressive to me.I have had other staff members as well and all have been great. The owner is also very hands on and when you go I'm sure you will see him around.Such a great feeling to see someone take such pride in what they have built in this city. We love to see it.Ambiance-It's such a great space.Large enough for big parties (call ahead don't be that group) and paired with a great outdoor patio it's perfect.They added some fake greenery to the wall that is nice. I wouldn't be mad if they maybe incorporated some life plants as well. (Totally doesn't effect the great space)Dog owners-I have seen many folks bring dogs as well to seat in the patio space. The only draw back with that I have ever seen there is there was one lady who took her dog (medium sized) and it was baking the whole time they were there and pulled a lot at the owners table to were the dog was basically at o their customers tables begging for food.I'm a dog owner and just don't appreciate the lack of consideration for other guests nothing on the restaurant.So if you bring your dog just be aware of others around you.All in all this is definitely a 9 out of 10 for me."
