Carne Asada fries are 10/10!! The restaurant is clean and the staff is super friendly. This is my second time coming back and it will definitely be a regular place for me. I highly recommend them. The aqua frescas are also amazing. Glad i stopped here to eat for sure.

I live nearby so I’ve been eating food from here every now and then across the last few years. Number one, as far as grilled chicken (pollo asado 🐔) that is something they’re ok in, I’d give em 4 stars, they grill it well although you can tell the chickens are not the best quality. I decided to try something new last time and it was a big mistake. I ordered the “suadero “ torta and idk what they think suadero is but they definitely did not serve me that. Suadero is supposed to be soft like pastrami or good bbq brisket, they chop up in big tough nasty chunks. The meat was old and even smelled OLD. Like I could tell they don’t sell much suadero and I was getting some old meat that had been sitting there for a while. I’m so disappointed in what they call suadero. You know how some old meat

Pollo Asados El Norteño never misses. The chicken comes out ridiculously flavorful every single time, and you can smell that mesquite magic from the parking lot. The service is fast, friendly, and feels like family the moment you walk in. The portions are generous, the sides are legit, and the whole place has that old school Austin charm you just cannot fake. Easily one of my top Mexican spots in the city and worth every visit.

I was surprise on the portion of the food and the quality of it . We stopped by here after they picked me up at the airport. The servers were super nice . The dining area is really small but they have a lot of to go orders which means they are that good. Recommend this spot !

Got delivery from Grubhub. The food was packaged really well-especially the large sides and salsas. Everything was wrapped perfectly so there was no leakage. Food was absolutely fantastic and large enough to have leftovers. We got the fuego plate and pollo asado quesadilla. Meat was seasoned and smoked to perfection. Red sauce was delicious, but the green sauce OMG- absolutely amazing! I ate most of my quesadilla before getting a photo, but it was huge. Can’t wait to try more from the menu! Thanks for a delicious authentic tasting dinner!
