This was my first time here. The food and service were wonderful. It is a quiet restaurant with a bar and a couple of TVs. It is a very relaxing place. I ordered the Bistec a la Mexicana. The amount of food given was overwhelming. The food was very tasty. It was blended perfectly. This is more pricier than I normally spend. It was well worth the money. They charge a non-cash fee.

Can confirm the fajita chicken quesadilla is also very good! I could taste the butter on the outside of the tortilla, so good. Might like the chipotle enchiladas slightly better but both great! The quesadilla lunch special is $10.28 before tip and comes with rice and beans, pretty hard to beat. Service is great in here as always!

I dislike giving bad reviews but some places truly deserve it. A quick check of other reviews made this place seem like a good choice. I often wonder how other diners experiences can be soooo different from my own. Cheko's, on this day at least, deserves this review.On a brief trip to Austin a friend suggested meeting here (it's across the street from his apt) and says that he likes the place. He's from the east coast so I now doubt his ability to judge Tex-Mex but I digress.At 5pm on a Wednesday, on a major street, I walk into a completely empty restaurant. No cooking aromas. No mariachi music. Nothing.After a long look at the large menu I chose a gordita with picadillo and my friend chooses a carne asada plate.These orders came to the table VERY quickly. At first I was astonished but then they came into view. My gordita was a rock hard, flat, thin slab of masa with the filling oozing around the sides. No lettuce, no tomato, cheese...just beans and meat. (The gordita on the menu included those items)I sent it back immediately and then ordered two carne guisada tacos. (pictured) This also came to the table VERY quickly. The tortillas were possibly 6" across and the carne was bleeding from each end. I used my fork to taste the guisada only to get a big mouthful of fatty beef nugget hidden behind the sauce. I picked at it for a while and left it.My friend's plate was an unholy looking mess of thin cut carne asada (it didn't look fresh...or even hot), guacamole slices, nopales, cheese, and rice, All slopped together. It was hideous. He didn't finish it.Cheko's should "finish". It's plain bad.

The El Pastor tacos were very tasty. Great refried beans!Substitutions aren't allowed!They use a lot of orange cheese here. I'm not sure if you can ask for authentic Mexican cheese. It's definitely American shredded cheese. If you get a side of something ask for the price first. Had I known avocado was $6, I would not have ordered it. They could be Possibly Violating merchant agreement with credit card because they charge more if you don't pay cash. And they don't warn ya.

The taquitos were delectable, definitely worth a try. The service was quick, Cheko was a great host. The ambiance needs some update but if you are good with old traditional Mexican this is for you. Some of the food was colder than I'd prefer but the taste was spot on

Wasn't let down when we FINALLY dined here after driving past it for the last 15yrs and living down the street for 7. My Verde Ck enchiladas! 1st bite was amazing - perfect verde sauce, just enough cheese - SUPER MOIST AND FLAVORFUL Chicken...they got it right! Even my rice and beans had great flavor - wish other places paid attn. to details like that... Hubbie had Chipotle Ck Ench. and Ck Guisada Chalupa - and he LOVED EVERYTHING. Waitress was attentive and the owners granddaughter :-)There's a bar in the back corner - so we will be back on a Friday nt to enjoy that. There should be FIVE STARS next to the Name Cheko's!

First visit the Cheko's was a hit. Excellent clean ambiance. Very prompt and reasonably priced service. Had 3 breakfast that were healthy portions and tasty. The golden standard for all reviews? Great ice tea! WiFi was a bonus. Well don

Understaffed. Needs chef who really cares about Texmex and Mex food. Lots of potential.

Tried Cheese enchiladas no bueno. No sauce just cheese. Flautas were decent. Skip the enchiladas.
