Reviews Taco More

This hole is the wall hits the spot. True Mexican delights abound. No queso. No guacamole. Very few dishes with cheese or avocado. (Because the region this restaurant highlights - those items are not a big part of it’s cuisine) I fell in love with the Bria (Goat) soup and the Carne Asada con nopalitos. The salsa is both hot (flavor) and warm (temp). Be aware two music venues have made their homes on either side of this remnant of an east side Austin time gone by - sometimes both venues have shows going at the same time. Which can make parking (which is otherwise easy) a nightmare. (And fair warning to the music crowd: I saw them booting cars that were from the music venues - east side is not playing with their warning signs about parking) The servers and staff mainly speak Spanish so be prepared to be respectful of this when you come. They are gracious and kind with my terrible attempts at their language - but they also see my genuine attempts to be respectful and they payed attention to how much I appreciate their business, service, and food. I am not the target audience for this establishment. I am grateful and respectful while there. If people can be aware of their manners at fine dining, I hope we can also do the same for meals that are about understanding, respecting, and embracing the culture that is being shared. You can actually (for now) still see the Texas Capital building from the front porch. This tiny place has a spectacular view of downtown Austin and the Oracle campus. It seems almost a visual indicator of how this tiny but fantastic place is also still there - spectacular in its own quite way, holding on.

First timer. Was pretty much empty when I showed up for dinner arund 7pm. An hour later, it got super packed. Parking was easy to find. Don't park here after 11pm because your car will get booted. Food was delicious. Complimentary chips and salsa was delicious as well. Was kind of difficult placing my order since I speak no Spanish and my waitress spoke very little English but I was able to get exactly what I wanted. Would most likely return. Pictures on Google show margaritas are served here but when I asked for one they said they don't have any. Only beer.

You may have difficulty here if you don’t speak Spanish, as I did being the only white guy in the restaurant. But honestly it made the experience 10x better and the food was great. I’m definitely coming back!!

This place is always a hit on Sunday for me especially about a night out , the pozole is always fresh and served hot well portioned and comes with all the fixing I get the smaller one because I like to sneak in a taco or two of something else this time I got the quesabirria I didn’t like so much the tortilla broke before I even dipped it in the cosome de chivo everything came out of the taco I had to scoop it with chips. The micheladas are so good 😊 great taste just the right spice n Tajín, the salsa bar has good plenty of different salsas to try. The table sauce that come with the chip they serve is good to. I love their shrimp tostada as well. The servers are always around and don’t minding helping each other out with there tables , I will be going back !!!!

Definitely authentic! I come here often for the birria tacos. Awesome. I would prefer the shell to be fried more crispy but other than that, awesome.

I highly recommend Taco More. It’s authentic regional Mexican food. The ambience is humble—not fancy. The staff is attentive and polite. The orders come out of the kitchen at a reasonable time. Staff is friendly.
