My new favorite restaurant for fancy dates with my husband 😍🥰
Juan took great care of my friends and I on Sunday, he's such a great Server!
Honestly though, every time I dine here, the service is so good and the team seems genuinely happy. You can tell they're being treated well by their managers. I can't wait to go back and send people here to fall in love with the whole place, like I did. 💗

A fine dining experience. Everything about this place is amazing. That first bite into tacos is what will make you go back. A perfect spot for a date. They made me love carrots and cauliflower. I definitely need to find out how they cook their carrots!! The chicken taco could use some salt/seasoning. My partner had shrimp tacos and he loved them. The size of the refreshments is gigantic, I needed to-go cup.
And lastly, I can’t talk enough of their rice and beans. I wish I could get seconds.
Friendly staff, they will explain everything to you if it is your first time.
There is indoor and outdoor seating. The music is a little too loud for my liking.

This restaurant undoubtedly has a very good ambience. It’s next to the beautiful mueller lake park. I tried their lunch bowl and it was good.

When you walk into Veracruz Fonda & Bar, you can feel the mix of family roots and modern Austin vibes. It’s run by sisters Reyna and Maritza Vazquez, who grew up around their family café in Veracruz, Mexico. They’ve brought that same love of fresh, authentic food here to the Mueller neighborhood, and it really shows in the menu.
We dropped in, planning to just have a drink and maybe a small bite. We ordered the side ceviche chips, expecting something light—and were blown away. The ceviche was fresh, flavorful, and authentic, so good that we ended up ordering a second round instead of heading elsewhere for dinner.
The atmosphere is colorful and energetic—yes, it gets noisy, but in a way that adds to the lively vibe. What started as a quick stop turned into one of the most memorable ceviche experiences we’ve had in Austin.

Family friendly - dog and human baby friendly!
Love this very dog friendly restaurant!
Dog friendliness - offer water and dog treats!
Nice baby changing table/station - padded, clean, diaper genie! Nicest one I’ve ever seen at a restaurant!
Food - amazing combination of flavor and texture.
My first time to this restaurant a dish came out overcooked. While I didn’t say anything, the server left and talked to the manager and put in another order of the dish before letting me know they had taken care of it! Amazing service and attention to detail!
Highly recommend their whole fish dish! The steak taco and house sauce are delicious! So many delicious flavors! Their cocktails are fusions of flavor and beauty! Love the food and atmosphere of this restaurant! Have come back several times now, always ordering different delicious dishes.
