⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏼 We had an amazing Sunday brunch at El Naranjo and everything was outstanding. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in Austin, this place is a must-try. The dishes were beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The service was excellent, Adan our server was friendly, and very attentive, which made the whole experience even better. The conchas were fresh and soft, and the café de olla was rich, perfectly spiced, and one of the best I’ve had in Austin — highly recommend ordering both. Great atmosphere, great brunch spot, and perfect for a date or weekend outing. We will definitely be back and will be recommending El Naranjo to anyone looking for great Mexican brunch and coffee in Austin.

A la diabla dish (not pictured) was the right spice level to where you could appreciate the flavor of each pepper 🌶️. This is a lot of words to simply say - 5 stars.

I would highly recommend El Naranjo for special occasions or if you’re looking for an elevated Mexican restaurant that TRULY delivers, both in food and service. My boyfriend and I have celebrated our anniversary and his birthday here, and each time they’ve made the experience feel genuinely special. The staff is incredibly kind and thoughtful; they surprised us with complimentary champagne for our anniversary and ice cream with a candle for his birthday. The food is consistently excellent. I especially love their salsa macha and handmade blue corn tortillas. My boyfriend ordered the pozole verde from their monthly Guerrero special, and as someone native to Guerrero who has had pozole my entire life, I can confidently say it was top tier. I’ll definitely be back for it myself. I’ve also h
