"With an interior Mexican bent to its menu and more filling options than most places, this is a taco restaurant that you’ll be glad has two locations — one in North Austin and one in South Austin. Customize Papalote’s breakfast tacos to include chicharrones, squash, nopales, and more. Whatever your filling, the soft, bright yellow corn tortillas are the move here. While the restaurants are clean and friendly, you won’t lose anything by taking your order to-go." - Erin Russell
"Solid tacos can be found over at this South Lamar location of the Mexican restaurant, where breakfast and lunchtime ingredients range from al pastor to lengua to cactus. If diners need something more substantial than a taco or two, the restaurant also slings tortas (go for the stacked torta Cubana with ham, bacon, head cheese, a fried egg, and queso fresco), tostadas, tlacoyos, sopes, and huaraches. Takeout and delivery orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"All three locations of of this Mexican restaurant, including this one in the South Lamar neighborhood, serve up a nice array of tacos for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Highlight offerings include pollo a la parilla, turkey mole, and vegetable-stacked rajas y hongas with bonus zucchini and cabbage to customizable egg tacos for the morning. Takeout orders can be placed online or over the phone; there are dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The stellar taco spot is far enough south from SXSWness that few will venture down that far. It has great tacos and a liquor license. For those staying north of the river, there is a second location, too. There are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Erin Russell
