Food Scene

All of their food is good, they make great fish dishes, the best smoky salsa & tortillas are freshly made in front of you. Margaritas are great & the environment is colorful & festive. It can be a bit pricey & loud inside but there is covered patio seating as well. FAV

Great interior-style mexican food which highlights molé & chilli pepper instead of tomato-based sauces. Love the chilli relleno! Interior needs updating but there is a covered patio.

Happy hour for music outside in this gorgeous historic setting & a wonderful bar inside. Come for a walk on the property under the trees to enjoy the peacocks that live on the property. Be careful driving nearby as they run wild and are often out on the street.

My favorite tacos in town are at Torchy's. Love the trailer trash taco & the poblano sauce is the best! Obama visited this location while here for SXSW & said he ordered one each of the Democrat, Independent & Republican, just to be fair! There are 2 locations close by, the one on Congress is bigger & busier than the one on S Lamar.
