Our waiter Manny was super! Great recommendations and great service. Food was fresh and flavorful. You can tell the care and time they take to make their plates here. I enjoyed the background and context given for each plate as it came out and made the experience that much better.

Someone recommended Chapulin and said their tacos were 10/10. I am usually disappointed when another tells me this but in this case... Yes the Wagyu Carne Deshebrada tacos were excellent. Quite possibly the best tacos I've had my five years in Austin. The guacamole with chicharrones were very good as well. Yes, we will be back and thank you!
