I’ve heard such good things about this place so I decided to check it out. Made a reservation, upon arrival immediately was told we had a time limit on our table. That honestly rubbed me the wrong way and made the experience feel rushed. The service was okay, nothing stood out. The chips and dip were good. The margarita tasted smokey which was new for me. The taco was really good! The beans tasted smokey as well which was odd. Overall, I’m 50/50 on this place. I would not seek it out on my own.
De Nada Cantina is straight up the spot. The whole place has a fun buzz to it and the margaritas are famously strong. Found out real quick that the rumors were true because my girl took one sip and was acting like she got hit with a tranquilizer dart. One drink in and she was already reconsidering her life choices. We didn’t have a reservation so the wait ran close to an hour, but it wasn’t bad. Everyone’s hanging out, music going, and there’s a margarita bar in the parking lot. Just know that rolling in hungry and drinking while you wait can turn you into a cautionary tale real fast. When we finally sat down, the chips and queso showed up faster than two squirrels fighting over a Cheeto. I ordered three tacos and let the server freestyle the last pick. Ended up with a quesadilla that slapped way harder than expected. If you’re visiting Austin, put this place on your list. The vibe is fun, the drinks hit a little too hard, and the food is worth the wait.
Our server Edgar T is amazing! He recommended the best food. The Barbacoa taco is amazing. And the chicken enchiladas are also great. The Paloma’s are so so good, best I have ever had! Also the frozen margaritas. Dog friendly and great service. Highly recommend.
Brenda was an absolute GEM! My friend and I were hanging in the bar waiting for our table and she checked on us to make sure we were okay and even offered to try to find a table for us. We were lucky enough to get seated with her and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Our food came out quick and exactly as we ordered, she brought our drinks quickly and came by regularly to make sure we were still doing okay. 10/10 will be back just because she made the experience AMAZING!
Tons of fun hangout areas! Love the vibe! Great pricing and tasty food choices. The staff were very friendly and quick! Definitely recommend checking it out!
