One of the very few places where you can find high-quality Margarita. Here it is called Lizzarita.
The food is delicious and inexpensive! The service is good! Open until 2am!
Perfect place for lunch, dinner, or “drinks and snacks” at any time.

Came in sat down and waited about 15 minutes to be greeted and left. Made eye contact/tried to get attention of two servers who hurriedly looked away and avoided coming near our table/ turned backs to us when at nearby table. Idk if it was shift change or something, but service used to be great here but second time in a row we’ve had little to no service.

Came to Gecko for a drink with my sales team and had an awesome experience thanks to Lu, our bartender. Lu was incredibly professional, attentive, and made sure everyone in our group was taken care of. Beyond just great service, Lu was a genuinely kind and welcoming person who added a great vibe to our night. It’s not every day you come across someone who makes the experience memorable just by being themselves. We’ll definitely be back—thanks again, Lu!

Cafe Gecko serves up some solid Tex-Mex, and their Queso with Chicken appetizer is a standout. The queso is rich and creamy, with just the right amount of spice, and the addition of chicken makes it even heartier. It pairs perfectly with their fresh tortilla chips.
The Chicken Quesadillas are another great choice—stuffed with plenty of well-seasoned chicken and gooey cheese, then grilled to a crispy, golden-brown perfection. They come with a side of salsa and sour cream, adding a nice balance of flavors.
Overall, both dishes hit the spot for a casual and flavorful meal! Definitely worth trying if you’re craving cheesy, comforting Tex-Mex.

This fan favorite of the neighboring community is always a hit! The excellent service and fun-loving crowd makes this a must on your list of places to hang out!
Vegetarian options: I always grab a couple of pizzas that I can customize to satisfy my very picky taste! They have so many pizza toppings that I'm able to order a vegan supreme that will give any meat pizza a run for it's money!

I have to say....This is my favorite bar. The drinks are worth the money but the service is top tier. All the bartenders are amazing. They truly look out for their customers. Love it.
Great food, great atmosphere! I've been coming to Cafe Gecko since they opened their doors in Austin Ranch! They have always remained to be that neighborhood go to place! Plenty of TV's to watch any sports channel you like! Play some pool while you're waiting for your delicious, made to order, food arrives. I can't say enough great things about this place! I'm a lifetime customer.
Kid-friendliness: Before 9pm I've taken my kiddo here since birth, he is 10 next week! His favorite place to eat!
Wheelchair accessibility: They have tables that accommodate my Aunt, whom I bring often, that is in a wheelchair. Easley accessible inside and handicap ♿️ parking is convenient.
