We shared a Mexican Martini, which was delightful, although it didn’t come with the usual pepper-stuffed olives—instead, we received regular green olives in each glass (I'm the only one who eats those), so I’ll overlook that. I specifically wanted the Migas Enchiladas with chipotle sauce, and they did not disappoint. I ordered refried beans and rice as my sides, both were excellent. This has been my favorite dish since I first had it 20 years ago. I was given the option of hashbrowns instead of beans, but I prefer beans with my enchiladas, so maybe I'll give that a try next time. My husband ordered the Tex-Mex Combo Plate, which featured two cheese enchiladas, a beef taco, rice, black beans, and guacamole on a bed of lettuce. He enjoyed every bite. I like the Guad location, but we always seem to find ourselves at North Star. Their breakfast buffet has consistently been my favorite in the entire Austin area. It looks like we’ll definitely be back for brunch next!

The place wasn't too crowded, so we were seated immediately. We ordered the cheese enchiladas along with a side of guacamole, which was quite generous, though a bit on the expensive side. They also provide complimentary chips along with both red and green salsa, which were delicious! The enchiladas were fantastic, featuring thick, freshly made corn tortillas that really stood out. The service was exceptional, which is becoming increasingly rare these days. Our total bill came to $35.72, not including the tip, and included two soft drinks; they also have a selection of adult beverages. The restaurant offers plenty of seating options, with two levels to choose from.

The restaurant's interior is quite beautiful, and I saw there's a second full bar upstairs. Everyone loved their meals and drinks. Our server was outstanding!

The food is outstanding, and the drinks are just as remarkable, especially the Mexican martinis. I thoroughly enjoyed the shrimp enchiladas and shrimp tacos; both were delicious. This has become my favorite place in the north!
