El Meson Taquería

El Meson is fantastic Restaurant. This location is a great place to bring family, date night, girls night out. They also offer for you to reserve the restaurant for events, parties, gatherings. Food preparation, and taste is authentic Mexican food, one of the best in Austin. Management is so personal and the staff I can’t say enough terrific!

Very great authentic Mexican food ! Went there for the 11am-1pm buffet and about 8 items were laid out. The buffet menu changes daily never the same. I tried everything from pork to bears and rice. The tilapia was very well seasoned . Several vegetables as well. The food was very mom-and pops tasted it was made from scratch with love. Stop by and give them a shout

Breakfast taco was delicious, Al Pastor wasn’t great. Friendly and fast though.

I ate here recently and have no Idea why it has good reviews. That's why I went in the first place. The food was bland( I asked for the most popular selection) and my plate came with 2 tortillas which wasn't nearly enough. I had to pay for two more! The fountain drinks tasted pretty funky too. The people were friendly, but that's not enough to make me go again.

This is the first El Meson, which was right down the street from where I used to work. Our department got morning tacos all the time (which were better than the tacos that the others procured for special occasions). We even ate there for lunch every once in a while. It was always pretty good with reasonable prices. A few times I went there though, the air was out. Mexican food in a hot building for lunch is not ideal.

I love their chorizo and egg tacos. They are well proportioned and Monday through Friday until 10am they are only $1.50! What’s not to love? Clean and friendly restaurant, while I wait for my car serviced at Howdy Honda.

This review is just for the menudo and tacos - the bacon and egg tacos were really good. The tortillas are homeade And def have that homeade feel! The menudo was good too! Much better than a few other places I've tried Yes, the music was extremely loud. It was a bit much while i was waiting for my food to go. They didn't have the typical green and red salsas which is a bummer..... But nonetheless the food was good. I'll def be going back.

I was introduced to El Meson by a friend who knows good food. I was really surprised at how good the food was. Don't let the old building and decor fool you: El Meson is legit mexican food. They had two salsas, both of which were amongst the best I've ever had. The food seems less Tex-Mex than most shops around Austin, which is a nice relief for those of us who prefer a truer Mexican food. I'd highly recommend El Meson!
