Came in for breakfast on Sunday morning. Sat on the patio with my dog. Ordered Huevos Rancheros. Eggs were cooked to order. Salsa was ok but made better with their hot sauce. Roasted potatoes were a little undercooked. Coffee was good. Service excellent.

I visited this restaurant with my mom a few weeks ago. We used to come here often when I was a child and I always enjoyed it. The food was just okay this time. We wanted to see a physical menu, but the waitress told us to use our phones instead. We arrived just after 11:30 and were not given chips and salsa, but a couple who came in shortly after us received them. These are minor issues, but it might make us think twice about returning next time we are in town.

Great, family owned/operated, small town feel Tex-Mex. The food was delicious, service was incredible, this is our new spot for Tex-Mex in South Austin!
