The Alcove Cantina

Had a great late lunch here! It's a seat-yourself setup, and we chose to sit outside on the patio such a nice spot. The bartender provided excellent service, super friendly and attentive.I went with the pick-two tacos, and they were fantastic. Great drink selection, and the prices were reasonable too. They also have a solid lineup of live music advertised, so I'll definitely be back to check that out.Overall, a great spot with good food, drinks, and atmosphere.

The ambiance of this restaurant is spectacular. I really enjoyed the live band they had - I would follow that band to another spot! The food was just okay. it's tex mex bar food which is what I expected but everything was super bland + the menu was limited/confusing. our server also told us he was going to be too busy to refill our waters so we could refill them ourselves... uh okay. I would visit again for a margarita, chips and salsa + if I received real service -- that's probably it! if you're looking to just get a drink, enjoy a band on a patio + maybe needing to order something just to put something in your stomach, this will work.

Great little spot in downtown round rock. Margarita made fresh and was well balanced. The tamales were scrumptious and I look forward to having them again soon waitstaff was friendly and attentive.Good food, good service, fair price... What's not like if you have not checked them out you need to do so soon.

Stopped here on the way back from Austin to Dallas. The inside was full, so we sat in the outdoor area. It's pretty cool out there. They have live music most nights. Tonight (Tuesday) was karaoke night . I had the chimichanga with queso, my wife, had a pork taco and elotes. All the food was fantastic. The service was also very good. We are for $25. If you are in the Round Rock area, give this place a try

I was in RR with my husband and we stopped in for dinner. I'm gluten and dairy free. I worked with the staff to be able to eat a meal here. I wouldn't recommend for someone with an allergy. I ordered the barbacoa tacos. I did end up with cheese on my beans. I didn't eat it and they got me a separate cup without cheese. My husband got the beef enchiladas meal. The meals and drinks were just okay. Nothing amazing except I did like the salsa. I don't recommend the stale chips though. Our serve was good and attentive.

Terrific drinks and pretty good food. Service was friendly, but (perhaps because we were on the patio?) nearly non-existent.We were a party of seven plus a dog--were told to head outside to the patio with the dog, but can me back inside to the bar to order.No problem. We ordered multiple apps to share but no official meals. On a Saturday lunchtime, there were only a handful of customers indoors and more than one person working the bar. Disappointing that once food was delivered, no one came out to check on us. We WOULD have re-ordered drinks all around--maybe more han twice! But left on our own, no one wanted to go back inside to do so.Apps were sizable and tasted fine. Chips seemed fresh but maybe the oil in which they were cooked wasn't? They were okay, just not GREAT!Would we do it again? Sure. But would hope for better patio service.

Our order was based upon our waitress's recommendation. Food exceeded our expectations. Definitely a step above "bar food".

Dog friendly patio. But the seats are so tall, it's not a great option with a dog. I do wish there were some lower seats. I would be here much more often if that were the case. It's not a problem when not with my dog.The food here is very good. The drinks are good and cheap during HH. The only real drawback is the service. You have to order at the bar and sometimes it's chaos.Sometimes there is live music or karaoke. Karaoke is always entertaining if not quality, then humorous.

Saturday at noon with a four top and two patrons at the bar. Not busy at all. Great nachos! Horrible service from bartender but she sure didn't mind chatting it up with a bar counter patron as they shared a vape. Bus boy was pleasant. Ambiance is meh. Sorry I wasted my time & money here.

Had a private party here recently and everything was excellent. Alex was our bartender and did an excellent job.
