We came across this blog post by Andrew Dwyer explaining how he first had Tacos al Pastor at Gueros and it inspired him to try to make a pizza version! Quite the read, and he is kind enough to include the recipe! (Click here for the recipe) It looks delicious! Thanks for spreading the #tacolove Andrew! You can read his blog here!
We love that ’Donna Cooks’ has highlighted her Guero’s brunch experience in her latest ‘Recent Adventures’ blog post. She went in for a casual lunch with friends. Donna enjoyed the Buenos Dias Plato while she was there, and of course, the delicious salsa!

We are happy to have come across these bloggers who visited Austin during Batfest. They seem to know their stuff about margaritas, and we are happy to have impressed them with ours at Guero’s! Here’s an exerpt:
“As an aside, here’s a word about margaritas: they’re not green. They don’t look like slush puppies, and aren’t as sweet as candy. They’re not made with bar mix of any kind. If someone makes you a margarita with any of the features named above, by all means drink it, but don’t think it’s a margarita. Margaritas have three ingredients: good tequila, an orange liqueur, like cointreau or triple sec and fresh-squeezed lime juice, shaken and poured over ice in a small glass. If you absolutely must, salt the rim. That’s it, that’s all. Anything else is like buying Spam at the grocery store and serving it for Easter. Guero’s margaritas are done very right, indeed. A small glass of refreshing perfection”
They also seemed infatuated with our “BEST EVER” quesadillas.
“Here, we snacked on some guacamole and what turned out to be the BEST EVER quesadilla. Soft flour tortillas with chorizo, tomato and onion with good jack cheese, accompanied by sour cream, more guacamole and jalapeno slices. We imagine that they toasted the tortillas on a flatop or in a pan to brown them a little and then steamed them until the cheese melted. As a result we didn’t get any hard and dried out tortillas, just soft and pillowy, oozing with filling.

Thanks again Austin, we will continue to bring in “really cool” bands and keep the salsa coming! Guero’s loves Austin, Texas.
Andy Hayes, publisher of Sharing Travel Experiences, recently wrote a “Foodie’s Guide To Austin, Texas” where he highlights the best spots to eat in Austin. For Mexican food Andy says Guero’s is the best in Austin!
It is no surprise that some of the best food in Austin is Mexican-inspired. But many of the restaurants in Austin serve what I’d call Tex-Fresh-Mex: fun and light ingredients, without all the lard and salt. And they’re BIG into tacos, maybe just a little obsessive if I may say so. Gueros takes top marks for great service, a fantastic menu, and terrific ambience at their venue on South Congress. Portions are a healthy size without being obscene. Try an Al Pastor taco which is topped with pork, cilanto, and pineapple: great for those warm sunny Austin days. And don’t forget the queso!
We would like to personally thank Andy for his kind words. We work very hard to give our customers the best experience possible.
On his foodie blog “Super Asada“, blogger Bob Banks recounts his many dining experiences during SXSW. One place he highlights more than once is Guero’s. Bob says we’re good, we’re cheap, and we make the best margaritas anywhere.
…So with heaps of praise and Hollywood floozies hanging out there it’s easy for a bitter man like me to hate on a place like Guero’s.
But I can’t.
Because the food is really good, really cheap, and they make some of the most hyper-bitchin margaritas you’ll ever get.
We would like to personally thank Bob Banks and the many thousands of people who came to Guero’s during SXSW. We had a great time seeing everybody and we hope your experience with us was a good one. Don’t be a stranger, come back and see us again real soon!
