When I lived down south I came here all the time. The food is always really good and they have a great happy hour! I would highly recommend this location to anyone who is down south!
Mexican Special. I get this everytime I go to Maudies. Order it and this is what you do. The crispy beef taco will come out quickly after you place your order. Do not pick it up to eat it. Crunch it up and mix it with the avocado salad, and tomatoes. Now put a huge chip full of sala on that and go to town. Once you finish that your meal should be out. I always make my enchiladas stewed ground beef, and I suggest you do the same or make one cheese and one beef. The ground beef here is sooo awesome. The flavor of the enchiladas is amazing. Thank you Maudies for many wonderful meals.
Maudie's has great service and excellent value. The tortilla soup is the best in Austin.
Great local neighborhood TexMex venue. Relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff and good food. Have eaten here many times and it's one of my favorites.
Consistent Tex Mex, especially good are the beef crispy tacos. The queso and cheese enchiladas are also really good. Nostalgic flavor. The patio is good for doggies, too
This place is a regular stop for me, at least once a month. Maudie’s is classic Tex-Mex faire that never disappoints. I like to get the Josie’s enchilada plate if I am here for dinner or lunch and the sausage migas when I am here for breakfast. One this visit we tried the queso blanco which, I believe, was a temporary menu item, this was a very runny queso that barely stuck to the chip. Otherwise the enchiladas and fajitas were excellent as always, and the margaritas hot the spot for a Friday evening.
The atmosphere here is also pleasant… they have a nice porch, cool artwork on the walls and an intimate feeling due to the imitation hacienda roof. There is much to like about this Maudies location, it is South Austin comfort food.
New note - the sausage migas at this location are much better than the lake austin location.
My aunt is a regular here and we decided to join her for her weekly brunch. The staff are amazing and the food was perfectly Tex-Mex. I didn't mean to be so needy but my waitress ran to grab every little thing we asked for without hesitation or even the slightest attitude, she was on her A game and our drinks were never empty! Great place to get together with the family
They’ve got great options for lunch during the week but this was my first visit and I loved the Shrimp Tacos! Parking lot tends to overcrowd but you’ll find a spot. It’s a local favorite that doesn’t disappoint!
Very good menu selection and outstanding food. I've not had a bad meal there. From the fajita salad to tamales El jefe, it is always very good. The place can get loud at peak hours.
Drinks are always solid, food is Tex Mex, parking it's usually good but it's sometimes packed out due lots of places to eat in this strip. Great hpy hr,
Prices are decent, All day happy hour on Mondays & place is packed.
Like a well-oiled machine! Sat down and almost immediately had chips and salsa (a bit too hot for us, but good anyway) in front of us. We noticed the tables around us were bussed within moments of being vacated. Our server was attentive and very nice. The food was quite good. We were going to see a movie after dinner and had plenty of time to get there due to the quick service. All in all, it was a very good experience!
We were held up in traffic and arrived late, but got great food and great service. The hostess was warm and welcoming; she found us a table immediately. Tony kept something going on until our food had arrived. Between Tony and one of the bar-tenders, I was served a very nice "margarita azul" ( i.e. w/curacafood wonderfu )l.- wonderful.
If you haven't had Maudies, Sweet Potato Hash for breakfast, its' a must. It's absolutely delicious! Whiched I had taken a photo of my plate.
For those vegetarians, you can just skip the bacon. Still delicious

This place has a great patio, interesting wall art, and an intimate vibe because of the faux hacienda roof. The mood is very good. This Maudies restaurant offers comfort food from South Austin and has a lot to offer.
