Macho Taco

I have always enjoyed the food here, though it isn't the best in the area, because the staff are incredibly friendly. I have probably dined her 20 or so times in the last few years. Today, I went in to pick up an order I called in and had a cup of coffee from home in a to go cup that I was finishing up. The owner told me that I can't pick up my food if I have outside beverages. I tried to explain to her I was just grabbing my order and she was firm that I needed to leave. First time being asked to leave a restaurant! I hadn't paid for my order yet so not an issue of being out money but I won't be returning again and wanted to let anyone else know - leave your coffee home even if you might just be picking up your food.

Always friendly service here. The lady who takes the orders is so nice and uplifts a room and a mood. Place is clean and has seating and parking. Can fill up fast so be prepared. Had the puffy tacos and I was in Love. I have also had the egg and chorizo breakfast tacos. I had two and I could not finish my second one because they were so big. MY's my go to when I am in south Austin.

Tasty food but, with a little effort, this could be a better restaurant.1. Cold ceramic plates insure that the beans are cold before the plate hits the table. Eggs are pretty cool not long after that.2. The six-foot table RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CASH REGISTER has to go. I've never seen an arrangement like that at any other restaurant -- ever.

If you're in South Austin this place is definitely worth a try. Prices seemed to have increased a bit but the food is still plentiful and filling. If you want to avoid the long lines at peak times, try to call in an order. Old school type tex-mex restaurant. Small, cozy with no frills.

Macho Taco; you blink and you drive right by. But if you stop, you will enjoy a good taco. Breakfast tacos are huge and filling. Tasty ingredients. Lots and lots of stuff. Over packed. Two-hand taco. Y'all know the deal. Tacos here are very standard. Tasty. Hot. Good. Lots of choices and ingredients. You won't go wrong.CC friendly. Plenty of parking. Very nice service.Overall, I would come back. I did. Came for lunch with the wife. Ordered something from the lunch menu. Again very standard. Rice, beans, etc. Sometimes you just want a hot meal that is filling and Macho Taco does a good job.

Exceptional cuisine and exceedingly pleasant individuals are employed at this establishment. They serve as the preferred destination for tacos in my opinion.

The first bite of the Migas Taco had a delightful burst of fresh cilantro -- very excited about that. Ultimately though, the eggs needed to be more thoroughly salted. The cheese helped a bit with this but it wasn't dispersed evenly enough for full-coverage. The Roasted Jalapeño Salsa and the Guacamole helped as well but those were also lacking some kick. There's salt at the table but, come on ... don't make me do that. The staff was exceedingly friendly and the service was fast. The portions were large (which seems to be a sentiment in many of the reviews posted here on Yelp) but that doesn't warrant any additional points with me unless the large portions also happen to be *delicious*![Ranked as #51 on my taco list of 153 locations: AustinTacoMojo.com]

This is one of those all in the wall sleepers that people miss this place is amazing. I've eaten during the day and had regular tacos here and I've eaten here for breakfast a few times which is for me more delicious enchiladas with some over easy eggs, rice, and beans. They have a great menu. They do a country breakfast and every kind of usual Mexican food that you would want super good super flavorful and great customer service.

Food - 4.5 starsService - 5 stars Very friendlyAmbiance - 4 Very clean!Value - 5 stars Nice size portions, good pricesOrder at the counter and then they bring your food to you. Lines can get very long on weekends but they are pretty fast preparing the food and getting it out.

Oh my god, you won't believe the flavors in the food cooked up here, and the service is fantastic!
