Asador at Cheer up Charlies — Restaurant in Austin

Great food. Was a little skeptical at first because of the price per taco, but their portions are a good size. This spot is a great addition to not only the grackle but the east side.

Carnitas was so great had to go back for more. Tried the chicken taco and loved it. Got to taste the mushroom mole and was impressed. Salsas were great. Flavors here are on point.

Tortillas are delicious but do feel precariously thin; mine held together with some fearful handling. Wish I had more salsa (street taco salsa portion for a not-so-street-taco taco), but otherwise loved it. Would recommend. Pairs beautifully with a dive bar evening. Will try the chips...

Great flavors! Different than the typical tacos you get here. The homemade flour tortillas are some of the best I’ve had (actually tastes a bit like Asian Bing if you’ve ever had that). The green salsa is a way better flavor than the typical Austin taco truck green sauce.

It is kinddd of pricey though. $6.50...
