16 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants In Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"This is the full monty of classic Tex-Mex experiences, set in an enormous restaurant with multiple dining rooms, a sprawling patio, and seating for 500 people. Even then, there’s almost always a wait for a table. It’s pretty kitschy—with an outdoor fountain and giant metal suns hanging from the walls—but in an endearing way. Head to Matt’s after an afternoon at Zilker Park up the road. Order a margarita and the Bob Armstrong dip—it’s a mix of queso, beef taco meat, and guacamole—then close your eyes and point anywhere on the menu. Rest assured that you’ll end up with some glorious mess of tortillas, meat, and melted cheese." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
