Suerte Austin Reviews
So I normally skip dessert, but the first time I went, I
So I normally skip dessert, but the first time I went, I completely forgot they had a Choco Taco! WELL, I got my choco taco today and omg, im obsessed. A MUST try!
Let's start by saying I was recommend this spot but went
Let's start by saying I was recommend this spot but went into this restaurant not really having a clue of what I was walking into me and my friend walk into this spot and let's say it is beautiful was install greeted by the hostess which is always a plus they sat us at the bar because we were all dressed up and everything so the bar was more comfortable for us bartenders were super knowledgeable about the food and was also greeted right away now I would describe this place as a high end mexican twist cuisine if your looking for authentic Mexican dishes and culture in my opinion this isn't that type of places which I was clearly looking for but this doesn't take away from what they are trying to bring to the austin locals
I absolutely loved the ambience here.
The service is excellent from the moment you walk in with host, when you are served, and mgr also checked on us. The food was very good and they have the proper menu items. Great variety of liquor but because it's Mexican, they have good options on tequila and mezcal. I love the lighting and even though parking is a little tight, it is at a great location. Would totally go again.
I visited Suerte for the first time a few years ago, and I
I visited Suerte for the first time a few years ago, and I specifically remember the Suadero Tacos being some of the best tacos I've ever had. I was really excited to come back and try them again, and I finally had the opportunity on a Thursday night for dinner. Our dinner was at 8 pm and the restaurant was packed, so definitely make a reservation! The space itself is gorgeous and you could either dress casually or a bit nicer and not feel out of place. They do have a small parking lot outside, but they also validate for the garage across the street. Our server was super friendly and made plenty of recommendations. We were checked on constantly throughout our meal, which I really appreciated. We ordered: - Guacamole (5/5): This is a solid guacamole option with plenty of herbs. Instead of the typical sized chips, they served this with a couple long chips that you can break into pieces. - Suadero Tacos (6/5): These are truly the star of the show. The brisket is perfectly tender and the oil is super flavorful. The "avocado crudo" on top adds just another layer of richness and brightness. I still think this is one of the best tacos I've ever had. - Tlayuda de Hongos (5/5): This is such a pretty dish! All the textures paired perfectly together, from the crunchy tostada, to the meaty mushrooms and creamy beans. The radishes and herbs on top added just the right amount of freshness as well. - Barbacoa: I don't like goat so I didn't try this one, but everyone else said it was good! - Flautas en Mole Negro (5/5): These flautas were filled with delicious duck and topped with an incredible mole sauce. The flautas were crispy and I loved the mole! - Zanahorias (5/5): These are seared carrots served with fennel dumplings over a tasty red sauce. The dumplings were my favorite part! I wasn't sure what to expect, but they're fluffy like potatoes with a slightly chewy texture. Overall, if you're looking for a spot to impress your out-of-town friends or just a nice place for a date, I highly recommend Suerte!
Our brunch here last month was fantastic - my rainbow
Our brunch here last month was fantastic - my rainbow concha was a particular standout and I loved loved LOVED my chilaquiles. We shared the refried lentils and they were delicious as well. The space is beautiful and the service was prompt and friendly. Would absolutely recommend!
Talk about elevated.
We've been wanting to try Suerte as we've heard through the grape vine that it has really good food and a cool atmosphere. And what better time to try than our 6 year anniversary! And the staff made it one to remember for sure. Highly recommend making a reservation in advance. I believe I made mine 2 weeks out and there were plenty of spots for a Thursday so just prepare ahead. They also have on-site parking for customers and validate the garage for a discount down the road. If you dine early enough there should be parking available in their little lot. Our waitress was super nice and friendly and went above and beyond in making our evening special. She advised ordering family style tapas so 3-4 plates between us and that was a perfect amount. My favorite was the Suadero Tacos because they were absolutely delicious and super flavorful. To drink we went off the cocktail menu and got a Spicy Marg and a Whiskey Sour and it was probably the best whiskey sour I've ever had, no exaggeration. The ambiance was very nice inside and you can tell the designer had a vision when putting the space together. The volume was pretty low for a packed restaurant and we could have our conversation at a normal volume. We left feeling very cared for and incredibly satisfied with the quality of food and drink. Will definitely be coming back for any future celebration!
Simply the best place in Austin.
Please go here if you're reading this trying to decide - There is a 0% chance you'll be disappointed.
You have to go.
My husband and I went and shared a few dishes. The Tlayuda De Hongos and Suadero Tacos had amazing flavor and I would be back just to have these dishes again. We felt so cared for and the servers were so personable. The only thing is if you want a table reserved for a couple months out start looking now.
It's fine but the flavors and vibe do not match the prices.
In general I'm finding some of the more upmarket Mexican places in Austin to be a bit overrated. On entry it's a lively and engaging space but the design is a little austere, like if Stockholm interpreted Mexico. Throughout the course of the meal I found that the space was quite loud so if you're wanting to have more of a quiet conversation this is probably not your first choice of places to eat. We tried a number of dishes to share with the table: the carnitas, the chicken and the carne asada. The carnitas faired best of them of them all: it was perfectly cooked, flavourful, and juicy - it's easy to overcook this dish and thankfully that was not the case here. The chicken was just OK with the sauce technically being able to bring some life to the bird but the two never really complimented each other. Carne Asada was, as it is damn near every slightly more upscale Mexican restaurant, fairly lacking in flavor and marination - only Californios in San Francisco has been able to do a version of this that I enjoyed over more hole-in-the-wall and family preps; my recommendation is that if you notice this dish being prepared with a thicker cut of pricerier meat, you're probably going to be disappointed. Service was nice and helpful. I wish I enjoyed the food more.
Have never been here but will try one of these days when I
Have never been here but will try one of these days when I travel there. Hope it is good?
I tried this place yesterday as a birthday gift from loved
I tried this place yesterday as a birthday gift from loved ones. Are you absolutely kidding me?! I had the BEST tacos I've had in Texas. Period! Yes the food comes in small packages, yes the food is pricey but also yes, you will get such quality food it will all be worth it. You know when you taste something so good it feels like little flavor fireworks go off in your mouth? That was definitely my experience here. Every single thing we ordered was divine. The place is so cute too all the way down to the restrooms. Our server was kind and explained the menu to us. Overall, I give this place a 10/10.
Came here for brunch with some friends and did a light meal.
There is a reason this place is rated well and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing and unique. The drinks were great. The service was top notch because our waitress really did a good job explaining the options, answering our questions, and everything came out on time. The ambiance at lunch is great.
OH MY!! Hands down some of the freshest and unique Mexican
OH MY!! Hands down some of the freshest and unique Mexican food I've had in some time now!! My only regret was I couldn't eat more!! I made a reservation for one to ensure I wouldn't miss out on this experience since it was a weekend and I knew a big conference was happening nearby. I found parking close by at 6:30 on a Friday, so I was pleased about that, but I did have to drive around for a bit to figure it out. The hostess greeted me with a warm smile and quickly brought me to my spot at the bar. The staff behind the bar was knowledgeable and attentive just when it was needed. The place was bustling and it was entertaining to watch them whip up the cocktails while enjoyed my dinner. As for libations I opted to try two versions of mezcal. The Rosa Peligrosa: a stunningly deep pink cocktail made of mezcal, smoked rhubarb, dry vermouth, raspberry, hibiscus, lime, and egg white shaken to form a thick foam, and the Soraya: a take on an old fashioned with mezcal, tequila blanco, sweet vermouth, amaro, chile morita, chocolate mole bitters. Both were beautifully crafted with care and the flavors were amazing! It was a sipping pleasure for sure! For dinner, it was a hard decision to make as I wanted to try so many of the options available but opted for things that seemed the most unique to me which were the TUNA TIRADITO: big eye tuna, burnt habanero-apple salsa, suerte pico, candied chiles and the TLAYUDA DE HONGOS: white bean aligot, oak grilled mushrooms, pickled fennel, toasted pepitas, fried allium. Both were outstanding! Fresh, wonder mix of flavors and that MASA! (mind blown). OK OK, if I had to say one 'thing' - maybe less of the sauce on the Tuna - but let's be real - it was so good! I didn't have any room left, but did take home some flan for later and it too was fabulous! Truly - a delightful date for me and my tastebuds! I'm going to have to hold back and not go both nights while I'm in town, but it's really really really tempting y'all!! Don't hesitate - put it on your to-go list and make it happen!
This is one of the best meals I had in a long time.
We went here Thursday night with friends visiting from Chicago, so we knew we needed to take them somewhere impressive. We got an early dinner which was great because it wasn't too crowded or too loud. Our server was friendly and helped us decide how many dishes to get to share. I really appreciated how they arranged the order of meals. We started light with the peaches and feta. This was surprisingly savory and so fresh. Second was the ceviche verde. This was flavorful and refreshing, though the shrimp was just a tad chewy. The other fish in the ceviche was perfect. We then got the suadero tacos which were incredible. The brisket was so smoky and flavorful and the tortillas had the perfect chew, clearly freshly made. I always order these when I come here and they never disappoint. Next up was the barbacoa. The goat came still wrapped in the banana leaf, served with salsas and fresh tortillas. We cleared the plate! Last but certainly not least were the flautas en mole negro. Oh. My. God. I haven't stopped thinking about the mole since we left. I absolutely love flautas and these were both crispy and juicy (not to mention huge)! We lapped up the mole sauce with the extra tortillas and had to shoo away a server when he tried to take the plate before we got every last drop. This was an incredible meal from start to finish. Highly recommend if you're looking for a play on classic and modern Mexican food.
Wow, authentic wagyu, not the imitation! They use genuine
Wow, authentic wagyu, not the imitation! They use genuine wagyu beef, so we tried the wagyu tacos and wagyu quesadilla. If you have to pick one, go for the quesadilla - it's cheesy, fatty, and bursting with flavor! The ceviche is also a must-try. Portions are a bit small, so the bill can add up quickly, but the quality makes it worth it!
This is by far the BEST Mexican restaurant in Austin.
The most professional hospitality team I've ever been honored to dine with coupled with a medley of dishes that were absolutely perfect! The margarita is by far the best in Austin. This place takes it to a whole new level as they completely hand make & personalize everything. - daily hand made from scratch corn tortillas - house made tajin And so much more!! There is not a single meal here you can get that will disappoint! If you're looking for the best place in Austin to go, this is it!
Don't let people tell you what is good or not.
Try it for yourself. Suerte is the place where people come to talk and feel expressions of other real people. Food is the reward of coming to a restaurant like this. Everything is made with passion and I will be coming here again. Thanks for the amazing service, drinks, and food Suerte.
Absolutely delighted with Suerte.
Best cocktails I've had in years. Upscale and hip environment. Fabulous service. The food was excellent. We had the eggplant appetizer and the lentil appetizer, both unique and delicious. We also shared the fish, brisket tacos and a mushroom flatbread. I would highly recommend.
Hoy fue mi noche de suerte.
Una buena experiencia en un nuevo lugar de Austin. Esta raza sirve la remolacha al grill y esta súper buena. El lugar tiene un ambiente súper agradable y el servicio también es !
Can't wait to go back.
WOW! What a fabulous restaurant. Thankfully we had a reservation as it was crowded on a weekday evening. The cocktails were delish. Hubby had the Don Dario and I had the Paloma. We started with the refried lentils. So much flavor. And the chips, so good. The guacamole was outstanding. Our server was amazing, so very helpful. I had the barbacoa, which was made with goat. I loved it. The pickled onions were delish. Hubby had the wagyu brisket tacos. The beef was flavorful and the tortillas were handmade for sure. Our guests had the tilefish...melt in your mouth and the sweet papas (oak grilled sweet potatoes), yummy. This was an excellent dining experience. Great food and knowledgeable staff, what more could you ask for.....oh the price point, on target! Go, enjoy every bite!
Great restaurant
Really good food, drinks and service, would highly recommend if you are in Austin. We had to wait a bit for a table but it was worth it.
Great food
Best restaurant that I visited in Austin! Food was outstanding as well as the service and drinks! Ask your server what to order, you want their signature dishes.
Everything good as should be for the price.
Cool place in East Austin. Everything is expensive and this is no exception. Great service and food but overpriced. We had the waygu brisket tacos. 4 tiny ones for 25. The smoked goat was good but $40 for 4oz? Of meat. Waiter was great and location was great. Went to Grackle a cool dive bar and Whislers a must for a European cave vibe for drinks.
Amazing Latin Experience
I was fortunate to be included in a business group of nine persons for dinner at this fabulous Latin restaurant, with tons of interesting dishes. Service every step of the way is phenomenal. Drink orders were taken immediately, and I loved my classic Margarita. Oh so tasty. Then, our host ordered one of everything! So, we had a chance to taste each incredible starter. Check out the menu to see them all -- each one better than the other, with a huge spectrum of flavors. That aside, some of the group (like me) begged off ordering more food. I was already pretty stuffed. My seat mate convinced me to share a portion of his pan seared dorado fish, perfectly cooked, juicy and flavorful. Oh I wish I had more stomach capacity. Then I eyed the Suadero Tacos, and just had to have one of the 5 beautifully presented little guys. The taste was off the charts! Now I was over-stuffed, but really happy. So, go with a large group if you can, and try lots and lots of dishes, large and small. You won't be disappointed. Quite the contrary. Kudos to the Suerte kitchen team!
Superb!
We had an amazing brunch at Suerte and would highly recommend amongst the many brilliant restaurants that Austin has to offer. Food, service and ambience without fault.
Disappointed
Back in Austin visiting family and was truly looking forward to eating here again . Service here is still great , food presentation is great . That’s where the great stopped . Not sure if they have a new chef or? But other than the Wagu tacos everything was just plain blah tasting and we had many entrees and starters to share . They all “ looked” fantastic, but all lacked anything in the way of flavor. Truly a disappointment. And truly I was very very surprised.
Quack!!!
The food was great. We picked 5 different dishes and all were amazing. The mole Duck was possibly the best duck I’ve ever tried so if you go, go duck.
Not great.
Came from Chicago to visit my 34 yr old daughter and two of her malefriends. We are all foodies. The cocktails were amazing and an incredible mezcal Negroni. Next was the guacamole. A little too limey but good although the chips that came with it were sheets around 4x6. Not a good way to go if you have Covid phobia. Ordered the special which were Fish Flautas. One bite of the two fish species flauta turned our stomachs. It was a reminder of why you don’t thaw fish on the counter. Not a good example of Mexico City cuisine. Austin, your being duped .
Do not leave Austin without eating here!
This restaurant checks all the boxes! Atmosphere is high end yet down to earth. Service is exceptional! Food is out of this world! Carnitas, barbacoa, tacos, esquites, dessert, were all on point! We had trouble deciding on what cocktails we wanted so we got MANY different ones! The house margarita and the spritz were excellent! My friend will be bringing her husband to Austin just to go there and we are all the way from Pennsylvania! You cannot go wrong with this place!
A Perfect Tex-Mex Dining Experience for us Vegetarians
Just one night in Austin had us looking for fantastic vegetarian food with a Texmex bent to it. That led us to Suerte which had the most unique-looking menu with the most options for our vegetarian preference after looking at many more upscale Texmex menus. Our experience was perfect. It's rare to find a place that has the perfect storm of everything – not only excellent tasting food, but presented with an artist's sensibility so just the visual of it as it arrives at your table is already an experience worth having. Plus the staff has a deep knowledge of the food and drinks and can advocate with passion for what they're serving you based on your preferences. We had the Beet Huarache, Sunchokes and Tiayuda de Hongos. All of which we're gorgeous in our eyes and mouths. I also enjoyed the Rosa Pelligrossa cocktail which was equally beautiful to look at as well as drink. There were more vegetarian options to try (which we didn't have room for.) So if we lived in Austin we'd definitely come back often. Also, although the place was packed on a Saturday night, and we didn't have a reservation, we were still seated after only 10 minutes or so of arriving. Also, also, if you're just visiting Austin and based downtown, heading to this neighborhood on the other side of the highway gives you a completely different, more pleasant, funky, upscale vibe to walk around if the downtown vibe isn't quite you're thing. We couldn't have been happier with this perfect dinner experience.
A trendy interior Mexican spot located in hip East Austin.
You've all already heard it from your foodie friends: "you have to try Suerte's suadero tacos." When I first moved to Austin, one of the most common recommendations I continued to hear time and time again was how great Suerte was, so I felt my first visit was long overdue by the time I finally made it here. Overall, the experience was good. The service on the night we went was a tad slow, but it allowed us to soak in the highly instagramable interior design. We tried several dishes, including the oft-recommended suadero tacos, and overall the food was very good. The tres leches in particular stood out as a super dessert. That said, I did get the feeling that the hype I heard was a bit much for this spot. For the number of people who swore that this was the best interior Mexican spot in town, it felt maybe slightly underwhelming. That said, super solid spot and one I would come back to again if reservations lined up with my calendar.
10-star dining in Austin.
We were lucky to snag a table as a walk-in during SXSW. Eric was great server who walked us through the menu, as well as their large selection of Mezcal and tequila, which are 50% off during happy hour! for dining, we started with a special menu item of bigeye tuna. It was seasoned with a sauce made of chilies and mackintosh apples! Such a unique and delicious flavor. Next we enjoyed some of their delicious tacos on delicious homemade corn tortillas with a generous helping of guacamole. final dish was also a special item which was similar to a quesadilla stuffed with beef cheese and served with two delicious sauces. Erik was kind enough to bring me a delicious chocolate Tres leches cake since we were celebrating my birthday. I've never tasted anything so divine.!
Very good food, but not mind blowing.
The choripapa sopes were very nice. The suadero tacos were delicious, but the corn tortillas were a little disappointing, lacking that authentic fresh-grilled masa flavor. Similarly, the filling of the carnitas quesadilla was delicious but the tortilla was just okay. For the beets with mole, I liked the sauce but found some of the beets undercooked, which diminished the flavor of the dish. Worth visiting, but not in a rush to go back.
Recommend without reservation.
If you like margaritas get the Don Dario, it is phenomenal. Our waitress was amazing and recommended everything we ordered. The food, I can't even describe how delicious it is. I was a little nervous to go to this restaurant because my husband is a bit of a picky eater and he LOVED it. Order the guacamole, suadero tacos and the bistec con chichilo. Melts in your mouth and the flavors are incredible.
Excellent ambience, the food was upscale interior
Excellent ambience, the food was upscale interior perfection. Server Rachel made excellent recommendations. Had drinks, a delicious big eye tuna appetizer, 2 entrees, and desert and landed at $75 a person. Totally with it. Highly recommend!
Suerte is TO DIE FOR.
We took a ride share as parking downtown is questionable but noticed that valet was available and at a reasonable cost. We will do this next time. This restaurant serves food when it is available, not in the order that you request it. I have no words for the food, only that anyone and everyone must come try it on their own. I was brought here as a surprise and thought it would be mediocre. I was WRONG. We will be back for any and all special occasions. The plates only got better and better as the food came out.
Great experience overall! We had a group of 5 and everyone
Great experience overall! We had a group of 5 and everyone really enjoyed their meal! Great drink selection of cocktails as well as draught beer. Our server was pretty intent on us ordering everything as family style, but we just all ordered for our own selves. I would definitely recommend this place
I had just driven to Austin from Houston after I got off
I had just driven to Austin from Houston after I got off work and went straight to an event. I hadn't had dinner, and my best friend I stayed with looked up restaurants that were open late. Luckily, they were open until 11 pm on a Saturday. There was a small parking lot right at the restaurant, which we got lucky to find a spot. You can park in the parking garage across the street for a discount with validation from the restaurant. I put my name in a waitlist for first available inside or outside. We waited about 10 minutes. We both had never been here, so we were excited to try.We started off with cocktails. Our waitress, Delaney, was so helpful with recommendations for drinks and food. She explained how this was a farm to table Mexican restaurant with Oaxaca-inspired dishes. There's also a sister restaurant called Este that is seafood-based. The farm for both restaurants is next to it.I had the Rosa Peligrosa which has mezcal, dry vermouth, smoked rhubarb, hibiscus, raspberry, lime, and egg whites. I typically like amaretto sours and ask for egg whites on top, so I was happy to try this. It didn't disappoint! It was a nice blend of sweet, sour, smokey, and only a tad dry. I would order this beautifully presented cocktail again. My friend had the Don Dario and added spice via tajin. It tasted like a spicy margarita. Most of their cocktails are pricey at $16.I ordered the suadero tacos which were confit wagyu brisket, black magic oil, and topped with guac (avocado, onion, and cilantro). I could taste the lime in the guac. I was going to ask for hot sauce, but this hit the spot on its own, esp when I added some grilled sweet potatoes from the sweet papas I ordered. The 4 tacos were loaded and filling. The tortillas were fresh and small like street size. The grilled sweet papas had a little spice to it. I was satisfied. My friend also enjoyed her dish with the collard green-wrapped halibut and pistachio mole verde that came with tortillas on the side.The ambiance was beautiful. I loved the light fixtures and warm wood tones. We left happy and was tempted to go back the next day just to dine there. Excellent service by Delaney. Many thanks! I would definitely come back when visiting Austin. I'm all about farm to table restaurants and have tried a few around the US. This place was chef's kiss. Worth every penny.
Very cool place, very hip, great service & delicious tacos.
Our waitress was very helpful and recommend we order several different ones to share. She was very compassionate with my daughter & her allergies. We ordered the carnitas which comes on a large plate on top of puréed black beans & homemade warm tortillas. On the side is an amazing escabeche of jalapenos, cauliflower & carrots with a jalapeno creama sauce with chopped onions & cilantro. Highly recommend. The side charred sunchokes are smoky & yummy. We also ordered the brisket tacos which comes with 4 small street tacos to share really good. They are tided with the carnitas. My son had chilaquiles and loved it with the pecan horchata. Great spot for lunch, fun, hip & trendy
Nice restaurant with great ambiance.
I would give 4 out of 5 stars for the food. I like suadero taco, their signature dish. This is one of the best tacos I had!
Firing on all cylinders. Good job !
Amazing food, service and selection . Nice French twist on some Mexican dishes. Creatively done , and knowledgeable staff. Deserves a repeat visit.
Another "sharing" restaurant that gives you tiny portions
I wouldn't mind sharing restaurants if they gave you enough food to share. I am still laughing about the butternut squash special - we ordered it and I almost burst out laughing when they brought it to the table. It had about 10 tiny cubes in the bowl for $17. We had 4 people at the table so everyone got a tiny bite. The food was interesting but such a ripoff. I can't wait until this "sharing" craze ends and people realize they are NOT lucky to get one bite of something for a lot of money. If Suerte were a "regular" restaurant with decent portions I would go back.
Just Love Suerte — Amazing Every Time
Incredible restaurant. Off-the-charts creativity with impeccable quality ingredients and attention to detail, including house-made masa made with care and love. Every dish seemed to be a unique, artistic explosion of modern Mexican flavors. Standout dishes include the Suaderos (brisket tacos), which may be the single best dish we’ve had in years, the fluke verde, the tuna tartare, the beets and the most refined and indulgent updating of an old-school dessert — the “chocotaco” — we can remember. Special shout out to the server, San Juan, who had an encyclopedic knowledge of every ingredient and preparation, which made our experience fulfilling both gastronomically and intellectually. Bravo!
Soooo Good!
Our experience at Suerte was amazing. All of the food was delicious!!! We were there for the brunch menu, and we all found plenty to choose from. The entrees were unique and things we wouldn't have tried elsewhere. Highly recommend!!!
Inspired fantastic Mexican
Delicious and innovative. Masa incorporated dishes for starter (tuna tiradito), 1st course (squash) and main (rabbit) as well as in the chocolate dessert. Wonderful flavors, substantial portions and excellent service made this a fantastic dining experience. Worth the detour to Austin!
DO NOT VISIT THIS RESTURANT!
Please do not visit this place. I usually don't write reviews, but this place is the worst restaurant I have ever seen. I order appetizers and some drinks. The EGGPLANT SIKIL PAK was the worst thing I have ever put in my mouth. When we finally got sited to our table, the waiter got upset because I moved the table in a form that I could sit with my wife and enjoy eating our dinner next to each other. What comes after that is a lack of training from management with their employees. The disrespect and rudeness of the apparent manager were off the cart to a point that I decided to leave without eating. I will tell everyone I know not to visit this restaurant for a long time. If I could, I would give zero stars.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Suerte Austin at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Suerte Austin page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
