"This East Riverside Mexican restaurant is highly underrated despite making superb breakfast and lunch tacos. A pro move would be to order the barbacoa and add diced potatoes and refried beans; you won’t regret it. This spot has a fast-casual vibe, with colorfully painted furniture and a very nice covered patio. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Both locations of the Mexican taco restaurant offer up the tamale veracruzano, which is made with seasoned chicken. Takeout orders can be placed online, in person, or over the phone; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Part of a personal Austin pre-travel tradition of getting tacos, the writer ordered a portabella mushroom fajita ("wonderfully meaty") and a chicken fajita; the recommendation is to always add the salsas, which "add much-desired flavor and spice." The spot offers takeout (in person or by phone) and both indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"At Taco Joint on East Riverside I added potatoes and refried beans to my barbacoa taco and it became a new staple for me — the diced potatoes play well with the juicy barbacoa and the refried beans add salt and texture; pickup orders can be placed online." - Eater Staff
"Yes, this taco restaurant is technically not on South Congress, but you’d be remiss to miss the food from the campus spot's second location. Find simple breakfast tacos, lunchtime ones, and tortas. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
