La Montaña Tacos

I've been here a couple dozen times, usually I get my food to go. The tacos are all good, my husband loves the Chicken Tinga. Their rice is EXCELLENT. The refried beans are not my favorite style (the pale thin kind) but they are also good. The 5 stars is for the chicken flautas!!! They are absolutely outstanding!!! The best in the city!!! 10/10 Also both their red and green salsas are extremely flavorful really spicy!! The people here are always nice & the food comes out fast.

Best to go in the morning or lunchtime. The meat seems to be fresher then. If you go near closing time you're taking your chances

I went by surprise as i saw a lowkey taco spot as i drove by. i had a different impression since the menu pictures here are outdated. Nonetheless, i got myself two tacos, one al pastor and another carne asada, as well as a sope with beef fajitas. i was left pretty satisfied, but parched since i thought there were going to be drinks, but only a fridge with generic drinks.

I did it. I came back when I visited Austin again. Damn was it worth it! The tacos were just as good as I remember, though the prices have (reasonably) increased a bit. Still very affordable though, especially when compared to larger, less-delicious, gentrified tacos you can find at places that rhyme with "Porchy's Pacos." The pastor tacos remain the undefeated champ, but the carnitas and tinga tacos also earned their spots in the winners' circle.

I always talked down on Austin Mexican food but DAMN they got down!! Tops alot of SATX spots.

I've been looking around for the best breakfast tacos in this area and landed on La Montaña. Homemade tortillas with a perfect flavor stuffed with bacon, egg, cheese and grilled jalapeños is what gets me moving in the morning. Highly recommended this place. Don't let the appearance full you. This place slams. Note to owner... If you painted your sign, you'd get more business. Keep up the amazing cooking because you've now become my favorite Mexican restaurant in town!

Note: This review is for their new north location on Pond SpringsAfter a lovely Sunday of buying awesome Mexican Metal yard art with which to adorn our fences and deck, the hubs and I were craving some serious Mexican eats! We found La Montana here on Yelp, and away we went! First, I just have to pay homage to that INCREDIBLE (and strong!) frozen margarita that we had! I opted for a large, and it was. Hubby and I shared it, and we both felt like we were whisked straight back to Cancun! Seriously delightful, and not too sweet!Equally delightful were the chips and salsa! The chips there are reminiscent of Houston's legendary Ninfa's on Navigation, if you're familiar with that yummy place! Thin and crispy! And that salsa? Beyond fresh and bright, y'all! We could have easily polished off two or three baskets with a vat of salsa! On to the meal:My husband had the Tinga, the Asada, and the Trompo tacos, just to get a feel for the place, and he was BLOWN away by the deliciousness and the authenticity of each of them! He said that he could easily imagine himself buying them from a street vendor in Mexico, which is the highest compliment! What makes them even more special is the gorgeous and warm handmade corn tortillas that they arrived in. Topping them with a bit of that aforementioned salsa made them just that much more dreamy for him! If you thought that my husband was losing his mind over the tacos, it was officially BLOWN by La Montana's Caldo de Res! Suffice it to say that HE LOVED IT! Caldo is his jam, and this one was simply the best that he's ever had. He called it stupidly crave-worthy and absolutely perfect. Full stop. You can trust him on that, if you're the caldo sort! Go grab some ASAP! As for me, after that enormous rita and all of those chips and salsa, I opted for just one Beef Fajita Taco with a side of crema, and it was AWESOME! I could totally see what hubs was talking about with his taco love! It was legit! Speaking of legit, this is authentic Mexican food, which is definitely what we were looking for! If you're looking for that oozy, gooey, cheesy Tex Mex-style Mexican food, you might want to hit up Matt's, but, if you're down to take a stroll through Mexico proper, gastronomically-speaking, hit up La Montana! You'll love it! The price is right, too! No downsides! Only ups! They're relatively new at this location, so they could definitely use your patronage, particularly during these times! Go grab a margarita, and say hi to our adorable server, Leniel, while you're there! Cheers, y'all!

Stopped to get my window tint and walked over for lunch! Real corn tortillas! Mole and pozole. The tacos are amazing. It's a bit small inside but u can order for pick up if u need. The corn tortillas really elevate the

Ever come across a place and wondered how come I missed this while browsing....I had to go to the first review and its been open since 2017...after our Breakfast Taco outing, I though about how much I have missed out. These Tacos are excellent!!....Scratch made flour tortilla all day....We both had the same....Chorizo, Egg and Cheese and a Bacon, Egg and Cheese...You dont expect much on presentation when getting BT to go, but this place is different. Served flat on a tray and covered with foil...Looking at it made them all that much better. Permanent Book mark for this place.

I'm not really the type to post reviews but I think I finally can after being a loyal customer since 2018. If you're looking for real authentic Mexican food this is the spot. As a Mexican I can say this is the REAL DEAL. They're red enchiladas are to die for, and they make their tortillas by hands! It reminds me of my grandmas Mexican Hometown. I would have to say that the service itself is not bad but not good either. They will not take that extra step of service or greet you with a genuine greeting at the door just like a lot of other places. It's not a deal breaker and not a reason to NOT come here but don't expect this place to be like your usual restaurant. It's a hole on the wall family owned business but overall amazing MEXICAN food
