Maudie's Café

This was my first time here and I can describe it as the Telmex place you bring your picky parents to. I prefer other establishments but I can't Faulk this place as they are busy and very courteous to their patrons. Chips and dips, trifecta, were not the best but again it is your parents (out of town) version of what Tex mex would be.Drinks were good and they had something for everyone. It seemed like a mix between a Chuy's and perhaps a Don Pablo's but the locals were lined up with to go orders the whole time we were there.This is a place for families and large parties. I sat at the bar and watched the game while I awaited my relleno which I've had better but I compare a business to itself and I found it to be good.So if you want original Tex mex I'd say this isn't it but if you have a large group who has different ideas of Tex mex then this is your place!

Worst restaurant ever!!!:- undrinkable hibiscus tea- chapula made my stomach so queasy- we were ripped off: *"where is beef" in chaplua, yet they charge for additional beef *charged us beans when it was included *did not take happy hour discount from my padre's drink while it was during happy hour.- gave us one sopapilla, while menu appeared that it was two.

Ordered to go for my girlfriend and I. Loved my beef enchilada and would give that an 8/10.However was disappointed with this to- go portion of rice. This is how much rice was there when unboxed. I understand it is only a side but overall not enough rice there for the price of the plate.

Pretty standard fare and hopping for happy hour and weekends. Prices are good for Austin. Location is close to downtown but not in the mayhem of the city center. Good stuff, cheers

We ate at the original Maudi's location on W 7th next to Lake Austin Blvd. l had Enchiladas Hernandez with fajita chicken with charro beans. I had the Pork Tamale plate with rice and charro beans. L had a Corona and I had a Mexican martini. Everything was excellent. Some of the very best TexMex ever! Classic environmental, a full house and great service. Not to be missed.

Food and service were so good. Prices for a texmex restaurant were amazing and I can't wait to come back. The beef quesadillas were so simple yet amazing with the right amount of onions and cheese while the cheese enchiladas were cooked to perfection - whoever was the cook today was 10/10.

This is one of my favorite places to visit when I visit Austin. If you like Mexican food, this is the place to go. I love that they have a diverse menu, and you can get a breakfast taco even at lunchtime, and they also have a full bar. I got excellent service as always, but it felt like the waiter was extra attentive because they were busy, but our waiter kept coming by to make sure we were doing OK.My party got appetizers to share, queso and guacamole. I also appreciate that they bring out salsa and chips as soon as you are seated. This time I got grilled fish tacos and black beans and tequila and the rocks. My husband got a Long Island Ice tea, it was tasty. He was nice and gave me a sip. I forgot to take a pic of his taco salad but it must have been good because he killed it.I will be back again and again when I visit Austin again.

Caught up with a good friend for lunch here. I had not heard of Maudie's but I'm always down for Tex-Mex. It's a quaint establishment. Service could've been better but the food was okay. I tried enchiladas. Chips and salsa are always a great way to start a meal. It doesn't top my list for Tex-Mex but it was cool.

Great margaritas with fresh flavors and very Tex Mex style foods. I opted for the power bowl, which was HUGE and delish. I got spinach as a base. Guacamole was fresh and well salted. Service was good; water glasses were quickly refilled and food came out quickly.

Maudies on 7th is my once a week breakfast taco. Best way to start your day...Pete's Tantalizing fully loaded. Best breakfast taco ever...
