Julio's Restaurant

Been eating here for years! I have to go get the Migas for brunch at least twice a month. Other favorites are the chicken soup. Tasty and it'll cure what ails you. Chicken enchiladas are my go-to for a dinner treat. It recently changed hands, but the food is still just as delicious and the new owner and her workers are great! Just guard your food from the grackles if you eat outside!!

Traditional Mexican restaurant with plenty to choose from. We went stopped in for lunch. Owner at the entrance was very warm and welcoming. My wife had the chicken quesadillas and I had the house salad with pulled chicken. Ranch dressing was house made and a definite plus. Both plate were delicious and a really great value. We ended up spending less than $30 for the 2 of us including tip. Place itself is a little older but clean and it feels truly authentic. A must try. We will be back.

Julio's to me is hands down the best restaurant in all of Austin. True, there are a lot of good places to eat in the city. None of them are quite like Julio's. The roasted chicken here is otherworldly and sends you into a dream of flavor. The chicken taco plate and the soup are some of the best dishes I've ever had in my life. Best of all however is the ambience; it's a family-owned place with the kindest staff you can find, and a warm, homey environment to accompany the home-cooked food. Overall an institution in Hyde Park, a gem of Old Austin you'd be sorry to miss.
