Polvo's Mexican Restaurant

The food is always delicious here but the last time we were there, the service seemed quite rushed and the food didn't seem to be as fresh. They were very busy and it was terribly loud. It was late when we were there and we'll still go back again since it might have just been an off night for them. We've been many times and even though our last experience wasn't the best, it was very busy and loud because they make a lot of people happy. 😁 Oh, and their salsa bar is amazing.

This is one of our favorite places in austin. So happy to report that not much has changed in flavor and quality of food since before the pandemic. Quality and food is still just as wonderful as it was before. I will say this isn't the greatest spot for beverages, they don't really make margaritas the way I feel they should be at a Mexican restaurant. And the frozen ones have lower quality tequila. Their Mexican martinis also are pre-batched and not my favorite. Martinis really aren't something that should be pre-batched. I wish they did them better. I will say the one disappointing thing to see is the charge for the salsa bar even when purchasing meals and drinks in the past this used to be complimentary, same goes for the tortillas. Service is pretty average here but that's also not why you go. We love the food here, it's always so delicious no matter what we have. A must try if you have not been.
