Super cool little place, perfect for a quick drink and/or bite before a show at Comedy Mothership, which is right across the street. The atmosphere is funky/fun, and the service was friendly and attentive. Great fried pickles, and non-alcoholic beer!

I really nice space with decent food. My waitress was fast and super friendly. I ate inside but they have tables set up along the street if people-watching is your thing. After I ate I pulled out my laptop and hung out for a while. They have a few TVs behind the bar as well.

Great staff. Great room. Convenient to 6th street, Moody Amphitheater, and across from Stubbs.
Stay here, you won't be disappointed.

The drinks were really tasty at the Chupacabra. I had the hibiscus margarita. I really enjoyed it. The bartenders were super nice and friendly too! Definitely has a cool atmosphere in here!

So I went to this place four, yes four, nights in a row... It was two blocks from my hotel, and honestly I just wanted to not go far and be able to get a drink and decent food (it's Austin after all).
First, get the Orange Brisket taco and stop asking so many questions. Get the dang thing and be happy. Happy hour regularly had $3 frozen margaritas. What are you complaining about?
They've got some chef back there making this menu with love and attention. And the chefs that carry out this menu do so with fantastic consistency. I mean, I brought my Austin friends here ("Never heard of it...") And they were really impressed by the price, the service, and the quality.
Get the tostadas (obviously), and if you're looking for some low-key vibes and good music, hang out here after dark. The crowd tends not to be too young (a good thing, let the early 20-somethings have the rest of 6th Street). It wasn't too crowded (weekday crowd was always chill).
And the bar tenders there took care of me. Just overall a fantastic experience, from the food to the drinks to the service to the music. This is my new go-to spot if no one has a preference for what to do in Austin. Always had a good time, always got what I expected, and rarely walked out paying more than I planned.
Place is a sleeper and I hope it sticks around and stays that way.
TRY THE BRISKET TACOS GOSH DARNNIT.

What a great place! If you're looking for someplace a little out-of-the-way, little out of the ordinary, this is what you want... Right here on 6th Street.
For dinner, I had the avocado salad, and the chupacabra... Barbacoa taco with all the works. Absolutely outstanding!

Typical bar atmosphere but nice selection of unusual but delicious street tacos (along with other Mex stuff but I didn't look past the tacos) and craft beers.
Tacos are a decent size and could have stopped at two -- Honey Jalapeno Fried Chicken and Baja (Fried Catfish) -- but had to try the Chipotle Orange Brisket which was probably my favorite. Pecan Porter was a nice complement to the tacos! Staff was very friendly. I would return.

Very unassuming place. Standard bar. They had live music which was great. We tried everything on the menu and the tacos were delicious, especially the fried chicken one.

Y'all need to fix that 5-foot diameter, 10-foot deep hole.
They have an excellent Butter Finger assortment.

Visited Chupacabra Cantina while on business. Music was upbeat, crowd was lively, beers were cold.

The tacos are amazing and the bartenders are very friendly. I've been here twice will definitely be back.

Went for happy hour (2 for 1 tacos) starting at 5 and it was definitely worth the value. Had the honey jalapeno chicken taco and the brisket taco and both were delicious. Staff were helpful and friendly as well.
