We’ve been very pleased with the service and food at the Burnet location recently.
Over the last year or so, they had really fallen off with respect to their service. But ive been back 2 or 3 times in the last couple of months and it’s been a complete turnaround. Very good!

The grilled avocado salad was next level. Get el pasto it is almost like bacon. And the pineapple and pickled cabbage was soo good.
The flautas were also very tasty and generous portions. And the don Ramon was tasty and they were generous portions of meat.

I tried the birria taco, shrimp taco, and the queso—and wow, everything was delicious! The birria was rich and flavorful, the shrimp taco had the perfect balance of spice and freshness, and the queso was absolutely addictive. The salsa verde was so good! What really stood out was the quesadilla—it had a crispy cheese ring around the outside that felt like a bonus snack built right in. Such a fun surprise and a perfect touch. Great flavors, friendly service, and definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!

I have ordered takeout from this place a couple of times. Be aware the staff will add a 10% service charge and they are sketchy about disclosing it when asked. They will definitely not tell you about it before tipping which aggravates the hell out of me. As a result, I've left 30-35% tips for a bag of tacos!
Having worked in the service industry myself, I'm happy to tip well to support server's wages (usually tip 20-25%). But I feel it's disingenuous of this staff to add service charges and not be forthright about it.
Short review...tacos leave a bitter taste in my mouth because it seems like the staff is trying to pull one over on me with hidden service charges.
Such delicious food, great drinks and wonderful staff! I can't say enough about Robbie and April, they are such beautiful people and fun to be around. If they worked for me, I'd give them a hella raise! The tacos are amazing, breakfast tacos are my personal favorite! Their mimosa carafes are delicious and cheap, and their water and soda are always super cold. I highly suggest checking them out!

Taco Flats is hands-down home to the best tacos in Austin—no question! We have a standing weekly date here because we just can’t stay away. The Hippie taco is absolutely to die for, and if you haven’t tried La Sancha, do yourself a favor and order one immediately. It’s the best drink on the menu—dangerously good!
What really makes Taco Flats special, though, is the heart behind it. Simon, the owner, and his wife are genuinely good people. Simon truly cares about the food he serves and the people he serves it to. You don’t just feel like a customer here—you feel seen, welcomed, and appreciated.
Great food, great drinks, great people. What more could you want?

Reserved a spot for 9 people at Burnet location. Staff was very attentive and accommodating. Had to email [email protected] to reserve spot and only Burnet location takes reservations, FYI. Tacos were very good and atmosphere was casual. Would definitely recommend.

This place was very interesting to say the least. They use QR codes which I am not usually a fan of, but it was pretty cool how we ordered on our phone and paid on our phones as well. The margarita I got was a bit of a rip off. It was very small and could barely taste any alcohol in it. Gone within a few sips for $10. The chips and guacamole were good though. I really liked how toasty the chips were.

here is what you need to know before coming to this location
they have parking in the back but you're going to be having to make sure to come really southbound on Burnet road because there is no middle lane to turn on over and the entrance is tricky cuz there's only one way in and out so you got a time it when somebody's not trying to leave the same way you're trying to come in
I have posted a video on this because that is 80% of battles just getting into the back parking area and then there's a decent amount of parking back here for both the peach tortilla and this location but they do share a parking with that I can't really vouch for being able to get parking anywhere else cuz again it's going to be tricky with the way things are just squeezed in in this area
once you can get past that and then you got to go through on foot to drive-in area so not get hit by anybody coming in so then get to the front and enter front the front entrance past the peach tortilla which is not as handicap accessible but can be done
From there plenty of indoor and outdoor dining area very hospitable staff that were very friendly helped point myself and a party I was with to order appropriate items to our pallet would highly recommend this place to tacos were definitely lived up to their expectation especially the carne asada tacos which is special oil dip that goes great with the corn tortilla and the spice chips with the trio of guacamole queso and salsa
plenty of indoor dining area and the restrooms were well maintained and in hilarious sign there with the mens and women's restrooms
From there there's plenty of TVs streaming sports and a large variety of beverages I got the hibiscus fresca and it was definitely worth every penny
not really do alcohol but there was a variety of drinks including a orange oil with our liquor drink that a friend of mine got that was definitely exceeded his expectations as his new favorite for those looking for the ultimate citrus alcohol mix
we did not take very long for putting in the orders they did have paper menus in addition to barcode scan menus and an online ordering website where you can order an advance and pick up to go
overall it was also impressed with the cleanliness of the place they do a great job of maintaining this location and now I know cuz this place has been here for over a decade and have passed by it so many times
outside happy hours furious daily specials but mostly it's just a taco bar hang out
Nice tacos just service is a bit slow
