What is the best Mexican restaurant in Austin Texas with cheap prices?

Question

Also how about southern food restaurant and the best seafood restaurant ( buffet even better)

Answer 1

I thought all restaurants in Austin were Mexican?

There are no good seafood restaurants in Austin.  Nothing against Austin, but I had a business trip to Boston a couple of years ago, and all I can say is WOW, they ain't braggin' 'cause it's true!

Honestly any one of them that does NOT say Taco Bell on the side is usually a good bet.

Answer 2

Do you mean true Mexican restaurants or Tex-Mex?

I always liked El Arroyo (the ditch) for good, cheap Tex-Mex.

Answer 3

Try these

Serranos

Tres Amigos.

Polvo's on S. 1st

Curra's

Manuel's

Casa Garcias

Juan in a Million = Awesome cheap Mexican Food (good breakfast too)

Maudie's

Vivo's

Matt's El Rancho

Trudy's

Enchilads Y Mas!!

Ciscos on East 6th

Zocalo cafe

Berry Hill Baja Grill

or

For other Latin American food (not just Mexican) you could also try Habana (Cuban) or Elsi's (Ecuadorian).

Answer 4

My favorite cheap Mexican is El Arroyo's too.

I made a page with many of the Mexican places in town, a map of them, and a poll where you can vote on what you think the best is.

My favorite southern food place is Threadgills.

Answer 5

Look at some of the review's under "source".  Doesn't say if they are cheap or not but does say whether food was good or not.

My friend and I are using this coupon book from ENTERTAINMENT and are trying to hit up places we've never been.  Don't have the book with me for restaurant name but we went to this Mexican restaurant in the shopping center at Rutland/N.Lamar behind Burger King.  We were a lil'nervous because communication wasn't the best since neither of us know Spanish.... waitress could communicate a little with us and was great. We got full and took A LOT of food home.  I had chicken/beef fajitas and she had a huge burrito the size of her plate.  We tried to split a tres leche cake...  it was good but that had to come home too lol...  We were too full.  I believe all the menu plates were under $11.  

We have parties all the times at Baby A's & La Palapa too but I think Baby A's is more tex-mex.
