Jarod Neece: Two al pastor tacos on flour (trust me) with beans & rice. Ask for the green salsa. Best Al Pastor in Austin.
Austin Chronicle: Al pastor pork is a must: glistening red from a dry-chile marinade, citrusy, charred, & tender; on a homemade flour tortilla and doused with an amazing green salsa – a contender for the best in town.

Jarod Neece: Migas, fish and al pastor tacos are all amazing!!
Pauly G: 1st time at this Veracruz, after religiously patronizing their first location for the past few years. These guys don't miss a beat. Migas & Al Pastor still kick the ish outta most tacos in this city
Bobby Seaton: Had the Migas and Al Pastor tacos. Both were amazing. Also it’s located in the same parking lot at Radio Beer and Coffee Bar so you can have a beer with your tacos.
BrookeFish: I had the al pastor and it was awesome!
AmateurConcierge: Excellent flour tortillas and guacamole. The pulled chicken is really tender. Peeps love the al pastor but I was a bit iffy on the texture. Man wanna try their breakfast tacos
Noah Weiss: Rightfully in the pantheon of best Austin tacos. Al Pastor and chicken tinga tacos, campechana quesadilla, and don’t sleep on the overloaded breakfast tacos.
