We went on Sunday for breakfast and had a good meal. For $10, you get 2 eggs, 4 bacon, refried beans, potatoes and 4 corn tortillas. It was very filling and the service was prompt. The restaurant is clean. It's a fairly authentic atmosphere and the music from the kitchen was jamming!Local Mexican restaurants like this are really experiencing a loss of business as some of their regular customers are afraid to be out in public. So it's up to the rest of us to open our wallets, eat out regularly and keep these treasures in business!!!

My daughter and I wanted a quick lunch, and decided to try this chain restaurant because it was nearby and we'd never been. It was just before noon and we noticed that the parking lot was pretty empty, so figured we could get a quick meal. By the time we left, the lot was pretty full!When we went in, we were told if we didn't want carryout we should sit down anywhere. Our waitperson immediately brought chips, salsa, and charro beans... but realized our table wasn't pristine so took care of that before putting everything down and taking drink orders. She returned later for food orders. The chips were very good, the salsa good but a bit on the spicy side for us. The restaurant filled up with people quickly, and we noticed more waitstaff. We also noticed that we were among very few gringos in the place... which we regarded as a good sign. Our orders of avocado tostada (from the appetizer menu) and carne asada mini-tacos arrived in a reasonable time. For the price, I was surprised by the quantity and quality of the food. My tostada had at least one whole, ripe avocado and my daughter's tacos were loaded with tender meat. A check wasn't delivered to our table, so we went to the counter to pay. While the atmosphere in this restaurant is rather basic, we were pleased with our food and service and would return. I wish I'd taken photos!

Breakfast tacos, tortas, green salsa, horchata. Yum!!!Breakfast tacos: Great deal! I like there bacon and eggs, eggs and nopales (cactus). I like them on flour tortillas, but you can choose corn as well. Torta is goodddd. Al pastor, barbacoa, or tongue, they are all good options. It comes with lettuce, tomatoes, and big slices of acocado. Horchata is HUGE!! It shows on the menu that there are 2 sizes, but they actually only have the big size. And it's YUMMY. Not too sweet, not too vanilla-y Vibe: it's more on the you come, get your good food, eat, then leave kinda vibe. There was one time later in the evening, there were still customers, but they started to get the mop and fabuluso out and start mopping the floor lol. So don't expect much, come for the food only. *Free chips only available later in the day for lunch and dinner. Comes with red salsa and beans

My Fiancé and I were looking for a late dinner spot and we decided on Mexican. We stumbled upon this gem in North West Austin. This place offers authentic Mexican food without all the frills. We arrived at 8:45pm and they close at 10pm on a Tuesday night. The service was excellent. The restaurant has a family style ambiance. The food was so delicious and the portions sizes are very generous. We started with Micheladas. We got a 4 tacos. Split lengua and asada. When I say I was blown away by the taste it's an understatement. Also light on the pockets so that was a bonus. Will definitely be back!

We started the night with mango margarita with chamoy. It's in a nice big margatita glass. It looked good and you could taste that it was made with plenty of mangoes. I ordered queso quesadilla with asada. It came with guacamole and sour cream. The meat had good flavor but wished it was more tender. My husband got the especial burrito, and it came with rice and beans on the side. He didn't like the cheese sauce on it because it reminded him of fake craft cheese. Overall, the food tasted good, and we were so full.

These are (in my opinion) the best Huevos Rancheros in Austin. Atmosphere is super festive as well.

We've used La Tapatia as the starting point for car club runs twice in the last year. One of our members actually eats breakfast daily here when he's in town. I'd actually be interest to know the history of the building; digs are quite small for the amount of business this restaurant does. Parking is ample!For our recent visit we snagged a large table and then commandeered an adjacent one so we all could sit and visit. Everything from just coffee to tacos were ordered. GF had her migas which she liked last time. Except, it seemed the portion had doubled in size since the last visit. It could have fed the entire table.My sauce choice for years when dining Tex-Mex has been Ranchero and I've been experimenting in 2022 modifying Matt Martinez's recipe. I never knew the importance of chicken stock in these recipes! So, Huevos Rancheros for me with cactus and cheese (gotta make it my own). Beans were alright; taters were not seasoned. Nopal, egg, and ranchero combo proved good bites. I ate more than I expected knowing we were heading towards a meat coma in Llano, Texas. BTW when they say ham (jamon) they mean the tiniest slice of cheap cold cuts.Aside from minor criticism we came, occupied, and headed out in an orderly fashion for our Hill Country cruise. Service was friendly and adaptive to our needs quickly. Food comes out lightning quick; it's up to you to eat the whole plate or pace yourself for your next adventure. I still ate it all and had BBQ afterwards!

Stopped by here to have a late lunch/early dinner with the Husband. There were not that many customers there when we arrived so we were seated quickly. We were brought out menus and some Chips and Salsa. The chips were fresh and the salsa ok. The older waitress comes out to get our order, and she doesn't look happy lol. I am not sure what was going on but that scowl!After our food arrived - in a timely manner - we both dug in as we were both hungry. We were thankful for the quantity of food and began enjoying the quality.We ordered:Carne Guisada Torta - My hubby is a big fan of Carne Guisada but not when it has too much gravy so he was pleasantly surprised when his Torta came out to him with the Carne Guisada having the perfect amount of gravy to meat ratio. He said the bread was fresh and so were the veggies. The Torta was huge and very filling.Cheese Enchiladas with Green Sauce - Pretty straight forward Tex Mex meal. The green sauce was tangy and delicious. The cheese is the white cheese and it was warm and melty. The rice and beans were ok. All in all a good meal.This restaurant was clean and we saw other patrons with smiles on their faces from their friendly wait staff, unfortunately our waitress was just having a bad day I think. The food is good here, nothing to write home about - but good none the less. If you haven't been here before, try it out and see for yourself how you like it. We will probably be back.

I ordered cheese enchiladas and a crispy beef taco. Enchiladas weren't cooked, the cheese was cold and solid. The taco shell was stale, like it was made yesterday. Waited for 15 minutes, but waitress disappeared. It was 1:45pm and the place wasn't busy. Wound up paying and leaving. Save your money
