Taqueria Morelos

I like "dives". Little off the beaten path hole in the wall restaurants. Taqueria Morelos was awesome!At first, I was one of two tables. By the time I was done, the place was getting packed, and I can see why.I had the huevos rancheros, with an extra egg, over easy. Pork chop, which was extra. Plate came with beans and, what I like to call, "my grandma's cut"style potatoes. Not the puffy dice ones. I'm talking about the thin sliced triangular shaped potatoes that all Mexican families' grandmas would make on Saturday and Sunday mornings. You know what I'm talking about.The ranchero sauce was absolutely delicious. Seasoned right and even had chunks of peppers in it. Can't say enough about this plate.Service was great, always checking on me. Very attentive staff and working together when it got busy.This is definitely a go to in my book!!

Staff and service here were great, very friendly. Some of the food we loved - pastor, chips and salsa, refried beans. I thought that while the Barbacoa was well cooked and tender, it lacked flavor and was a much smaller portion than the pastor. I would go back for the no frills experience, friendly service, great prices and mostly great food.

Amazing little taqueria off the highway! Service was amazing. They have the nicest staff! Everyone was super friendly, patient, and always checking on us. We ordered the breakfast tacos and they really hit the spot! Very good! We tried the chorizo, potato, & egg, and the bacon, potato, & egg. Both were super good! And it comes with red and green salsa. Prices are very reasonable. Inside seating was cozy, and they also serve coffee. I'm not a morning person, but this place makes me want to be. Loved having breakfast here at 6am. We were the first ones in the parking lot and by 6:40, the parking area was full. I ordered 3 tacos, but 2 was plenty for me. Saving the 3rd for later. My bf ordered 4 and ate 3. Each breakfast taco was twice the size of a mini food truck taco and was plenty of food for us! Definitely recommend this place!

Great Nopales and egg breakfast tacos. Tacos were ~3.99 + .50 for cheese. The bean, cheese, and egg were not as flavorful. Went around 5-6AM so I was the only one eating in; however, service was slow because they had a lot of to go orders coming in and out. ~$11 for 2 tacos and a drink. Would definitely recommend even though it seems high for small tacos.

I ordered a Carne Asada burrito today. I was very disappointed by the lack of Carne, it wasn't even chopped up. It was just one big slice rolled up with the burrito, filled with lettuce and rice not much Carne. After living in San Diego I know what the standard should be. This is far from it, on top of it, they tried to short change me because they didn't have change in the drawer.I like it's family owned and the staff was friendly but the quality and price of the food was not worth it in my opinion.

Not a bad spot. Food was pretty tasty. Chips and salsa were excellent. Had the beef fajitas and was pleasantly surprised. Service was good. Quick, responsive. Ambiance leaves a lot to be desired. Building outside looks like a wreck and almost caused us not to go in. Inside not decorated very well. Will go back knowing the building is a disaster, but food good. Enjoy!

This is my favorite place to get tacos in Austin! The little shack it's located in looks very unassuming, but the tacos they make here are so good. I got the beef fajita tacos, and they are amazing, especially if you add the lime and the salsa they give you. Can't wait to come back!

This is a little gem that we have been meaning to try every time we took that small road and would see this small red house. We finally got up and went for breakfast. Glad we gave it a try because the food is homemade goodness! The staff is very friendly and give great suggestions. When you walk in you can seat yourself and they will come to your table and they will take your order. When you are done and have your bill you can take it to the front counter and pay on your way out. You don't wait much time considering your getting freshly made food along with the tortillas. I had the barbacoa & egg breakfast plate. Hubby had the chorimigas breakfast plate & a spicy chicharon taco. He loved all the food and said the spicy taco flavor and spice level was on point and excellent. This is our new go to for breakfast and brunch. They do close early so check the hours before you show up. They have a bathroom available as well. They have parking. The place isn't a looker but I go there for their yummy homemade meals and its been a while since we found good food with reasonable prices, so the esthetics is not a factor. I highly recommend this place and we will be back for more!

Had to order seconds!This small but hardy place is a "must try' for food. Within minutes from Austin Bergstrom International Airport, it provided the perfect lunch for our arrival into Austin. My beloved ordered the steak taco. I ordered the steak, potato, cheese. Both were so nice we ordered them twice. The salsa was authentic, so naturally delish. Our server was patient with us overall it was an excellent experience. Like Arnold said in the movie, "we'll be back."

Got the bean and cheese tacos and breakfast potatoes with cheese. It came with chips and salsa that were delicious. Great service and great food.
