"The East Austin restaurant is part of Austin’s folkloric Tex-Mex history for good reason. The family dishes out steadfast migas, enchiladas, tacos, and its namesake tamales (regulars can easily get it all to go online, too), as they have been for over 60 years. Raise a toast to the portrait of Frida Kahlo that hangs over the bar and enjoy the vintage decor from any of the restaurants haphazard tables or patio seats." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury
