About El Borrego De Oro

El Borrego De Oro offers delicious Tex Mex cuisine with no wait to be seated. The iced tea is perfect, and the chips and salsa are hot and crisp with just the right amount of heat. The #1 combo plate features a crispy taco with tender beef, a cheese enchilada made with real cheddar, and a homemade tamale with unique chili gravy. Other popular dishes include the cheese Enchilada plate, Heuvos rancheros, and chicharon with bean taco. This humble spot next to I35 has a lot to offer, including live mariachi bands on Sundays. The food is excellent, with everything being fresh and flavorful, and the staff is friendly and polite. The menudo con patas is praised as the best in the Austin area, with its rich, authentic, and perfectly seasoned flavors. Customers love the beans and the hot, light chips, which add to the authentic experience. The place is in a building that clearly hasn't been remodeled in decades, adding to its charm. Service is quick, friendly, and attentive, making it a great spot for locals and visitors alike. The breakfast tacos, especially the potato and egg, are stuffed and delicious, with salsa that adds extra flavor. The restaurant often features live singing, enhancing the authentic atmosphere. Overall, El Borrego De Oro is highly recommended for its flavorful food, friendly service, and lively ambiance.
