Reviews
The steak fajitas and shrimp skewers are phenomenal! The decor in this place is over the top. Lots of thought put into the design here. Food is great. Service was good. Outdoor seating is great. My only complaint is the music. It is too loud so if you’re popping in for dinner, expect your ear drums to be numb when you leave.
I went here with a friend for dinner on a Saturday. It was very busy but luckily there was a table inside. We had the Rainey St Guacamole to start and it was good. I also ordered a Pepino Borracho and the Lonestar Brisket Taco, both of which were very good. We ended the meal with churros, which were delicious. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was the tall chairs, which weee very uncomfortable. They were too tall to put your feet on the ground, there wasn’t a ledge on the table for me to rest my feet and they were dangling awkwardly.
This place just draws you in from the street! It's so pretty and different! What attracted me to it were all of the photo ops, but surprisingly, the drinks and food were also good! Staff is super helpful and also a lot of fun! Prices were pretty cheap compared to some of the other bars on the street. What a great place just a short distance from our AirBnB!
Very fun spot - definitely come for a party dinner vibe. Also came earlier this week for a corporate event that was great.
Guac was good, comes with cucumbers and chips. We also got quesadillas which were not on the menu lol
So happy there is another dining option on Rainey Street. The food is amazing specifically their Queso and the Elote Corn made and served in their own unique way-a must try!! The patio is fun and wide open to Rainey so it’s fun to people wash. Huge swings to sit on too.
The Elote, Fajitas, Enchiladas, Churros and Margaritas were excellent. Our bartender Joshua was great! High energy club vibe with amazing food. Can't wait to see you guys again!
Great food, great people, great music. The staff was amazing. Inspite of the construction going on in downtown Austin you can see the curbside appeal from a mile away. I’ll definitely return again.
Stopped by last week for a quick dinner with some friends. Jazmin and Carly helped my table. They were absolutely wonderful. If you need great service for a party request them. 10/10
