Kesos Tacos — Restaurant in Austin

First, the tacos here are HUGE. No arguing with that and if I worked nearby, I'd eat here occasionally.

The problem though is that they are tasteless. I've never seen a taco joint that is so afraid to use seasoning. We started with the chips and queso. The size was way bigger than we expected for the price, but was the most bland queso I think I've ever eaten. The amount of milk in this cheese combined with no seasoning....I don't think I've ever thrown half a serving of queso in the garbage in my life, but it happened.

Next, the fried avocado taco. Two small unseasoned pieces of batter covered avocado on a bed of lettuce. It was just gross really, I think I'm still looking for Mighty Cone copy cats on that one. It's not here. Next, the classic al pastor. It's another "I've never", but it's true. I've never had such a bland al pastor. I couldn't put enough lime and salsa on it to make it good. On that, the cremosa style salsa was also lacking flavor so it didn't help much. Last was the porker that had 3 different pork meats on it. It was pretty good and saved the meal just a bit. If I worked locally I'd occasionally come back for that one of I really wanted quantity over quality with a half decent flavor. Service was friendly, no bathrooms that I could find to wash my...

Walked up to the counter and explained to the cashier that I’ve never ordered from this spot. I asked for the Don Keso (thinking everything was going to be placed on top of the chips) and then ordered a side of Chips and Keso.

She brought out two trays of chips and Keso, and the only difference between the two was that one of the queso had extra ingredients in it, such as the chicken I picked. I was dumbfounded that the lady did not bother to explain what I had ordered or at least asked beforehand if I understood what I was ordering.

Needless to say the queso with the chicken had barely any chicken and I had her box up the other chips and Keso. I offered advice to be joined enough to explain to the customer what they were ordering when it is clear it didn’t make sense - she even told me that she didn’t know why I would order two.

She didn’t care about my advice and neither did she offer to refund the untouched item, and I didn’t request a refund either.

Will never eat at this or any other...

This place is a standout taco joint! Compared to typical tacos, theirs are much more voluminous and absolutely packed with fillings.

I ordered the Brisket Tacos, and they were phenomenal. The meat was incredibly tender, fall-apart, and perfectly juicy. The pico de gallo was wonderfully fresh, and what really tied everything together was the delicious creamy sauce and sweet drizzle that accompanied it.

As the name suggests, queso is a specialty here, and it's a must-try. Their white queso had a simply superb richness and silky texture that you won't forget.

The atmosphere is great, too. The restaurant is spotlessly clean, and the staff were all friendly and welcoming. This is a fantastic spot that I...
