Carne Asada fries are 10/10!! The restaurant is clean and the staff is super friendly. This is my second time coming back and it will definitely be a regular place for me. I highly recommend them. The aqua frescas are also amazing. Glad i stopped here to eat for sure.

I live nearby so I’ve been eating food from here every now and then across the last few years.

Number one, as far as grilled chicken (pollo asado ) that is something they’re ok in, I’d give em 4 stars, they grill it well although you can tell the chickens are not the best quality.

I decided to try something new last time and it was a big mistake. I ordered the “suadero “ torta and idk what they think suadero is but they definitely did not serve me that. Suadero is supposed to be soft like pastrami or good bbq brisket, they chop up in big tough nasty chunks. The meat was old and even smelled OLD. Like I could tell they don’t sell much suadero and I was getting some old meat that had been sitting there for a while. I’m so disappointed in what they call suadero. You know how some old meat like bacon will have that weird greenish reflection?? That’s what was going on w this torta. The pictures can’t really capture it but it also smelled too much like lard; which I’m not a hater of lard but it’s gotta be done right., I am never ordering anything else besides the chicken.

Pollo Asados El Norteño never misses. The chicken comes out ridiculously flavorful every single time, and you can smell that mesquite magic from the parking lot. The service is fast, friendly, and feels like family the moment you walk in. The portions are generous, the sides are legit, and the whole place has that old school Austin charm you just cannot fake. Easily one of my top Mexican spots in the city and worth every visit.

I was surprise on the portion of the food and the quality of it .
We stopped by here after they picked me up at the airport.

The servers were super nice . The dining area is really small but they have a lot
of to go orders which means they are that good.

Recommend this spot !

Got delivery from Grubhub. The food was packaged really well-especially the large sides and salsas. Everything was wrapped perfectly so there was no leakage. Food was absolutely fantastic and large enough to have leftovers. We got the fuego plate and pollo asado quesadilla. Meat was seasoned and smoked to perfection. Red sauce was delicious, but the green sauce OMG- absolutely amazing! I ate most of my quesadilla before getting a photo, but it was huge. Can’t wait to try more from the menu! Thanks for a delicious authentic tasting dinner!

Delicious and affordable. I loved the flour tortillas. I had two breakfast tacos and loved how they served them on a tray. I was able to easily dive into my tacos right out the door. I can’t wait to try more of their menu.

Fantastic new discovery! I happened by El Norteno and figured I would take a chance. I got the El Norteno bowl with al pastor and it was excellent and plentiful and well-prices. Got it again four days later and it was just as good.

This is my new go-to- can’t wait to try some of the other offerings.

The service is indeed terrible. The girl taking orders makes the whole experience terrible. She was unwelcoming and was annoyed that I walked in to order. This was today. The back of house guy that brought out my food was nice.

The food is good though.

This is without a doubt the best taco & burrito restaurant in Austin. You can customize every order however you want, and they have the best red and green salsas of anywhere I’ve been in the city.

The best part is it’s also extremely affordable.

Here’s a little inspiration for you:

-breakfast burrito with barbacoa, eggs, cheese, and grilled onions

-burrito with carnitas & chicharron, sour cream, grilled onions, rice, lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado (never ever beans)

-taco with your meat of choice, avocado, cheese, onion, cilantro, sour cream, lettuce and tomato

-try the ham for any breakfast burrito or breakfast taco. It’s perfect (pictured below)

You’re welcome!

Ordered via uber eats. Temp was fine but the ribs were hard the beans were hard. The flavor was ok. But the toughness of the ribs and beans were very disappointing.
