This drive-thru features flavorful pasture-raised chicken . There’s no turning back once you try the beautifully seasoned and succulent chicken dinners or the amazing Mexican street corn . Read more

I've never been disappointed by the food. Both chicken options are tender and delicious. The Mexican street corn is the best I've ever had. The cauliflower and brussel sprouts are also pretty good.

Relatively new restaurant with a drive thru . You can see the chef grill the chicken from the walk up window. The agua refrescas are great!

Britni C

The chicken is LEGIT, its charcoal-cooked flavor is unforgettable. Pass on the Aguas Frescas--you'll get a better (and bigger) one at HEB or a Mexican market .

Paulie Dery

Super Bowl FTW. Add a side if Beets for the ultimate drive thru experience. They'll even sell margarita mix while you wait.

The Tastes that Make the City

The street corn is the best corn in Austin, which is why it’s on our list of The Tastes That Make the City : Austin. Read more

Love the half chicken . Torres also an excellent choice. Great chicken and friendly service .

Sandra Rubinchik

This is a grab-and-go spot so whether you’re driving through or walking up to order, expect to down tacos in your car.

Tacos so good. Great meat quality and great queso

Serious Eats

A riff on the Mexican drive-through chicken joints popular in Austin, sourcing pasture-raised birds from a local farm .

Candace Davis

Mexican street corn is magically delicious! It pairs well with the classic torta and guacamole + chips .

Shannon Mason

Everything I've had at Fresa 's was wonderful. My favorite is the Brussels sprouts .

Rob Zaleski

Though they're known for their chicken , I highly recommend the pork shoulder . So. Tasty.

Christina Meisner

Love the churros and breakfast tacos here. Dinner wise, I'd eat the grilled veggies everyday if I could!

Breakfast ? The Tomas. Lunch ? El Presidente. Add a Topa Chico for the Holy Trinity

Kevin Kendall

Brussel sprouts , guacamole , chicken wings when avail are all amazing

Kevin Stanley

The green sauce (jalapeño ) is phenomenal, and the perfectly chewy corn tortillas are made for dipping .

Serious Eats

Head to Fresa 's if you drank too much free beer at the SXSW parties, and you need a hangover cure ASAP.

Carter Beeeeeee!

Horchata - milk with Kool aid amounts of sugar. Naw- I'm good. Casey - "we will have 2 large ones"

Ellen Westcott

Quick and easy, especially for a breakfast taco . Use the drive thru and try the Tricky.

Brian Spears

Cars are king here. If you walk up, just tap the window. Otherwise you'll wait until someone glances your way...

Allison McDougall

Easy, quick, and tasty. I go for the veggie torta at least once a week.
