Fonda San Miguel

Voted one of the essential Texas restaurants to visit before you die, this Mexican paradise is known for its mole , Acapulco-style ceviche , lavish Sunday brunch , and killer margaritas . Read more

This Austin fine dining classic was the first to offer interior-style Mexican food in Austin. Their mole is some of Austin's best, and their dining room is charming and playful. [Eater 38 Member]

I love Mexican food and heard that this was the place to go so my honey and I decided to go and it was good! Had the taco al pastor , soup and a chicken dish . There tortilla are homemade a total hit!

Three decades serving Interior Mexican cuisine (cochinita pibil , pescado veracruzano) surrounded by vibrant art and an organic garden makes this fine dining spot one of the loveliest anywhere.

What a gem. Went for Tuesday Happy hour & tried almost everything. Loved the lamb chops & pork tostados . Incredible service, design and vibe.

For something lighter, the ensalada de espinacas combines spinach leaves, toasted almonds , chiles, & panela cheese , and there is the camarones Tikin Xik which has just the right amount of kick to it. Read more

Where to start? Best ceviche , best mole , and the Camarones Chipotle and Camarones Adobados are two of the best grilled shrimp dishes I've had anywhere.

Pescado Verocruzano and Carne Asada are my longtime favorites. Book a reservation on their website to save waiting time. Kid friendly too!

Whether you order the tender tacos al pastor or the fall-off-the-bone cochinita pibil (pork baked in a banana leaf ), you'll have a hard time believing you're not in Mexico. Read more

Amazing restaurant . The queso fundido (with rajas and chorizo verde) and the flan are the best I've ever had.

Tres leches cake is reason enough to come here. Order your own! The duck enchiladas were tasty too.

Transport yourself to interior Mexico , both in atmosphere and cuisine. A long-time Austin favorite!

The most authentic Mexican restaurant I’ve been. Sunday brunch is off the roof ❤️❤️

Make sure you holler at the Cochinita Pibil . Tender pork prepared in a banana leaf , topped with pickled onions . Best thing on the menu!

Tuesday is happy hour all night. Get the platter for a good variety & to share with another person for a full meal!

An Austin original traditional Mexan Food Restaurant . One of the best dishes is the enchiladas de pato, which are shredded duck enchiladas dowsed in a poblano-spinach sauce. Read more

Word in the street is the brunch is incredible. Book in advance and prepare to have your mind and tastebuds blown!

Best authentic interior Mexico cuisine in Austin plus a classy yet casual ambiance!

The carnitas tacos (especially during happy hour !) are fantastic.

They can make several of their normal menu items vegan , just ask. Very pricey though. Ate here for free for a drug dinner

Excellent food, excellent service, fantastic brunch . Never had a problem there.

Gorgeous interiors, great feel and home to the most authentic interior Mexican food in Austin.

Old school Mexican. Great plates. Grandiose dining room

The bad reviews scared me but this place is totally delicious. Cochanita Pibil was so flavorful. Duck enchiladas were the best.

SXSW Recommendation from Sietsema-The premises are cavernous and elegant, the margaritas strong, and the food often memorably delicious.

If you are having the Cochinita Pibil , ask how old it is. If it's 2 to 3 days old, it is at its best. The pork has nicely marinated.

Best Sunday brunch I've had in a while. Everything was great.

This is an extraordinary restaurant . Check out the beautifully decorated papa noel christmas trees . Enjoy the season with food and beauty.

Treat yourself to authentic Mexican food in a city filled with Tex-Mex restaurants . Indulge in tender tacos "al pastor " to feel like you traveled south of the border.

Fantastic restaurant - in Austin since 1975! Tres Leches Cake
