Editorial reviews from the web (2)

This funky family-owned Mexican diner, decked out with local artwork and colorful booths and tables, is an Austin classic -- don't leave town without checking it out. A rack of alternative newspapers at the door sets the political tone, but businesspeople and slackers alike pile into this small place for breakfasts of migas con queso (eggs scrambled with corn tortillas, cheddar cheese, and...

A cheerful, comfortable restaurant serving fresh, authentic Mexican food.

In Short
This cozy place has plenty of booths and tables and lots of colorful folk art. There's also a large patio--just go through the door marked ""Yes,"" unless you want to visit the...

Unfortunately this resturant was forced to close due to urban expeantion, they demolished this building for a new sky scraper. The food was great, the place always packed. It will be missed.

This wonderful emporium is NO MORE and HAS BEEN for 16 months now.
Terribly missed, it was simple, great food for fantastic value. Love in every pot.
WHAT KIND OF LOUSY WEBSITE LISTS OVER YEAR OLD, OBSOLETE DINING DATA?!?!?!?

THIS ONE?!!! CITISEARCH IS A WASTE OF TIME!!!!!! THANKS FOR NOTHING, AZZHOLES!!!!!!

Pros

+ Ridiculously out of date data

Cons

- Ridiculously out of date data

CLOSED SINCE AUGUST 2008

Average Rating
20

This restaturant CLOSED permanently on August 31, 2008, and yet Citysearch is still listing it 8 months later as if it were still open!!! And there is no obvious way to report that a business has closed! Isn't the whole internet thing about current information? Citysearch - you are quite literally OLD NEWS.

Pros

+ CLOSED

Cons

- CLOSED

Great mexican breakfast

Average Rating

A local recommended this place for an inexspensive breakfast. We loved it. My kids ate a ton, so did the adultas and it was unter $25 for 6 people. We ate there twice! It was a close walk to the children's museum which was a bonus.

Sadly, the one star posts are true.

I do like the nachos but at what cost? I can forgive the overpricing, it is what it is, there is obviously a demand... What I can not forgive is the overwhelmingly rude staff. They don't care if you come back or not. My last waitress might just as well have spat in my food right in front of me. None of them ever smile; you get more customer service at a drive through window.

Pros

+ When you finally get your food it isn't terrible

Cons

- The atmosphere and service brings you down

Tips about this business (2)

Know Before You Go

It gets packed at lunchtime, so be prepared to wait. If you're looking for quiet conversation, this is not the place--it can get loud.

What to Drink

Don't bother with iced tea, Texas' year-round drink of choice. Throw caution to the wind and order a tangy, fresh-squeezed limonada.
