El Tejano is a fun spot with great vibes! We had a great time, drinks are reasonably priced, and the food is very good. Parking, however, can be a real challenge, especially on busy nights. Also, I really wish they never removed the billiard table, it was a great touch that added to the atmosphere. Still, it’s a solid place to hang out with friends, enjoy good food, and sip on drinks without breaking the bank.

A time was HAD last night! Watched my first baseball game in my life, and apparently, it's the World's Series? I dunno... lol. I'm not into sports whatsoever. I only meant to get lunch, lol... but the vibe was great, so I stayed a little while longer, and there was an event for Tito's tequila going on, and they gave me a HUGE pink frozen drink that tore my ass up🤣🤸🏾🍹... so I stayed a wee bit longer and before I knew it.... I was SURROUNDED by baseball fans! The World's Series is like the baseball championships I gathered. They all thought I was crazy for never having watched baseball, lol... but they were happy to explain what was happening (I still don't get it🤣), but they were cheering, and it was all a blast! I had a fried fish taco & their lemon pepper wings with garlic buffalo sauce & ranch as a dip.... lemme lol... lemme tell you sum. THESE WINGS ARE EVERYTHING... OMFG, THEY'RE AMAZING! The drinks kept coming, and LA won the game! Great times! Super fun place to watch a game if you like sports, and even if you're not a sports person, you'll enjoy the vibes! Generous patio & and indoor seating as well. Be sure to watch your parking meter signs, though... they turn into valet only after a certain hour. This place was a TOTAL win... 100% get the wings!

Security was hella rude to one of my friends. One Security had told us to move to a certain spot and then an older man "security" came to move only my friend in a rude way and was threatening to throw him out. He did nothing wrong, there was enough room for the old man to get by but he was acting privileged like we owe him something. No other bar/club is like this security just moves around people not force them out of the way because he thinks he is owed something

Happy hour every day where you can double your drink order for two dollars or get a bigger size for that same price. Fish tacos were good, wasn’t crazy about the hot sauce on them but overall pretty good. Beers and food are a bit pricey for what they are but not absurd. Have been a few times and will continue to go. Fun vibe at night!

Tacos were awesome. Drinks were a pricey for how syrupy they are. But the atmosphere is awesome and a super cool place. UPDATE: went back 2 days later, and food was not good at all. Saturday it was awesome. Monday it was not at all. Lettuce on the bottom meat on top of the taco and looked like it'd been sitting around for forever. I guess only go on the weekends.

Happening spot with ok food and drinks. Prices are reasonable and portions are respectable. That said there is much better mexican food at other places. Fun bar with a beer pong table, corn hole, large size connect 4, etc. Gets busy at night and can be hard to find a table.

This is Tex-Mex for the California palate so don't expect the real thing, but it's pretty good. I saw lots of fellow Texas here and there atmosphere matches the vibes of Austin's trendiest Hangouts. There's a nice bar, lots of activities, and free chips and salsa (a Texas staple!). They need a third flavor of salsa that is a little milder as the two available are flaming! A nice avocado salsa would be great. The portions are huge and prices are reasonable. I'll definitely be back.
