50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Manchaca

“Good fresh Mexican food. Ordered the Pastor Quesadilla and was not disappointed. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the portion size for the price wasn't too bad for Austin. Only downside was the tacos were missing the onions and cilantro, but had salsa to make up for it a bit. Queso dip was a great size and not too bad tasting, chips were store bought nothing special. Overall worth a try if you're in the area“

“excellent dining in a great atmosphere an awesome service sampled a bunch of tasting plates from the fish tacos to the bone marrow and the oysters even had a wonderful dessert with their homemade ice cream and bananas did I say that the service was awesome top notch five stars all day definitely a place to visit in Austin“

“Yo, this place hits different fr fr. The tacos were pretty solid, got the trailer park and it was bussin. Vibes were chill, good spot to grab some grub when you got the munchies. Service was cool too, everyone seemed like they were having a good time. Would definitely come back when I'm cruising around Austin again 🌮✨“

“grubb best hot sauce around“

“Totally new world of tacos! Amazing flavors, unusual combinations, super fresh ingredients and perfectly prepare. Well deserved James Beard award!“

“The best experience and great food“

“Our favortie restuarant in Austin, we love ordering a bunch of appetizers and do that often. WE both eat gluten free so this place rocks.“

“When somebody tells me “these are the best tacos in Austin” I can immediately be skeptical. These tacos blew my expectations. When I first approached menu, I was currently hangry and overwhelmed with choice and Liz was super-friendly, conversational and recommend the perfect taco combo of the Machaca and the Alambre. Wooo! 🤌🏾 amazing!!!“

“Delicious tacos and enchiladas. Good beans, great salsa bar. Delicious hand made tortillas. What more could you want?“

“My girlfriend and I were looking for a good burrito and this place kept coming up in other comments and searches and it did NOT disappoint. The food came quick it was hot service was great! 10/10 would recommend and if you come across it definitely stop and get some!“

“Best Mexican El Paso style food! Home away from home great food! Great people and customer service!“

“Always good, love the Brushfire!“

“Mannnnn tried these tacos for the first time today absolutely delicious. These tacos are heavier than they look they are stuffed to the max with beef n cheese, I couldn't make it to the 4th taco I was too full. LOTS of cilantro, onions, and lime on the side so you can use as much or as little as you want in each taco. A very big cup of broth you will not run out if you soak every bite. I paid about $18 for this plate including tax and tip. Probably the best taco I've had from a food truck I gotta say. There's a lot going on in every bite multiple flavors all blended together perfectly.“

“El Naranjo is one of the best restaurants we have been in. We had the pork shank and the braised beef-they were prepared perfectly and paired with sides that were complementary to their distinct flavors. Spices local to the Oaxaca region of Mexico were blended in way that were flavorful without being overpowering. The wait staff was excellent, explaining each dish and answering questions. We highly recommend this restaurant. Yes, it’s pricier than other restaurants but is a fine dining experience that you won’t find in many other restaurants.“

“Great meal, though the non-service dog who wandered into our dining space was an unforced error. Your website clearly states the patio is not pet-friendly, so why was a family pet present? Please, no non-service animals in food service spaces.“

“The beef cheek was 🔥 So much flavor in every bite! The tacos have the perfect amount of moisture. You never know if a place will be as good as the ratings say, but this place is definitely a 5.0“

“Les doy un 10 el sabor la frescura el servicio todo muy bien“

“loved this place! ❤️ excellent atmosphere and great service 👍💃😊“

“Fast service, delicious food“

“The best tacos I have ever had.“

“We ate brunch for the first time here today and will be back. The churro waffles alone are worth it! Everything we had was delicious and the service was above par! Highly recommend.“

“This place is great, I have gone here for breakfast and lunch before and it has yet to disappoint. The food is tasty, well portioned, and if you get it to go they come in these plastic containers with a secure lid that are really nice. Their huevos rancheros is the best I've ever had and the mole tacos are solid too, but I would suggest that you ask for two corn tortillas as mine completely fell apart.“

“Tried their Friday pre-fix lunch for the first time. The portions were a nice size for the price. My friend and I each got different items to share. We left full. The fish taco was amazing. The salad was so interesting and delicious. We didn't have the $1 margs because we had meetings after lunch but they looked awesome. I'll definitely be back for another lunch here.“

“Super calm because there are not very many people and they are super friendly and the food is absolutely scrumptious the music was also inviting. I went there for my birthday and it wasn’t super over the top because it’s not busy, it’s just a nice happy birthday and a free dessert.“

“Food waa outstanding. The service was top-notch and you can't beat the price especially for it's S Austin location. I highly recommend“

“This is a classy and tasty place to dine and relax after a long work day.“

“The servers are always so polite and always very helpful. The servers here are wonderful. The food is also sooooo good. If I could go here everyday then I would. My favorite server here is obviously Joe. He is very kind and always brings me my food with a smile!

Parking: Everything here is wonderful!!“

“OMG! Hands down the best tacos I’ve had in Austin so far, and I’m always trying new spots!

The service was excellent, and the owner was super friendly and attentive. The taco truck is set up at a car wash, which actually made for some fun people-watching while we waited for our food. We ordered the steak tacos, and they were packed with flavor and came with generous portions of meat. The spicy sauce? Incredible!

So glad I found this gem… I just wish it was closer to my house!“

“Johnny Tacos has really good food !!
It’s a food truck outside a night club
Pros: The food is awesome, made fresh to order . I ordered the chicken fajita quesadilla, Birria & consume and chicken fajita tacos.. they were all so good I ordered more to take back with me.

Cons: It’s not kid/ teen/ family friendly place. It’s placed outside a night club called high noon . So it’s loud and lots of drunk folks. For those who drink it’s great you can order a couple beers to go with your food otherwise they won’t sell you any water,soda or pop.

Definitely go there for the tacos, if you are looking for an atmosphere & travelling with kids/ teen. It’s not the place for you“

“Nice place for a quick lunch or a linger.“

“I always have an amazing experience. Breakfast tacos are the best. Favorite spot to get lunch“

“The BEST tacos I've ever had!!! I visit every time I'm in Austin, often multiple times. The staff is friendly, the outdoor dining space is airy and relaxing, and the tacos will change your life. I've had the birria, tripa, barbacoa, campechano, and pastor, but the buche is by far my favorite! They also have breakfast tacos to start your day off right. A MUST when you're in SoCo. ¡Gracias! Already looking forward to next time.“

“First time to try it today and wow. I will be back again and again. Tried pastor, campechano, barbacoa today. Cannot wait to try everything else!“

“Great food. Best corn tortillas“

“This place has a very friendly and welcoming environment. This was my first time here. I was impressed with the size of the menu, considering the size of the trailer. The lady in the window was very friendly and helpful and made a recommendation. So I ended up ordering the gordita plate and a torta with barbacoa. The order took about 10 minutes but it was worth the wait. My food was really hot and I was impressed with the quantity and quality. I would recommend this place to anyone 5 out of 5. Also try the mex. Cheese Burger.“

“Deliciosa comida buen servicio y el fin de semana no cierran asta las 3:00am👍“

“Hey, this is always my go-to choice for tacos whenever I have to eat some in Austin and all. Their locations have really high quality food and very spicy salsas. The menu is pretty much remembered in my head by now. I really like the mole stuff and also anything with chicken and hard to spell words like fernando fernandino. You'll see once you go in order. They're all really good.“

“Tamales we’re the BEST and we’re huge! We had pork with the Texas chili sauce. Great service in quaint setting!“

“Great costumer service, Great options from menu ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Nice people, great food!!!“

“The best old school Tex Mex in town. Fajitas are so much better than Chuys or Maudie’s. Then there are killer items like shrimp ala mexicana with chipotle and classic lengua. Green enchiladas crush the ones from other places. Margaritas are super tasty and there’s no better staff at this family run place. It’s all very reasonably priced. Can’t recommend it enough.“

“We had a great time having lunch. We had a large group of 10 and made a reservation online. When you do that, you cant split the bill and they can only run 4 different cards (you can choose the amount thay goes on the different cards).
The food was great, we got a lot of items. The snapper and shrimp ceviche, queso, tacos, taquitos, carnitas plate and enchiladas. Everything was delicious. I got the tacos al pastor, they were delicious and came with 2 large tacos.
The margaritas were excellent. I had the blackberry and most people on my party got the frozen avocado. My wife got a flight and we were not prepared for the size! It was 4, 8oz glasses for $45. All the flavors were great.“

“Best food in the area I can’t stress it enough!!“

“La China has the best tacos here in Austin. If you find yourself in south Austin, definitely give this place a try!“

“We were in town for F1 and had the BEST experience at Mexta! The food, and hospitality was next level!“
