The Peached Tortilla — Restaurant in Austin

One of my simple pleasures in life is being pleasantly surprised by airport food. Nothing like having your expectations exceeded when they are low. You gotta live life being grateful for small wins, otherwise it can get dark out here.

I was flying back to NY after a 4 day company retreat in Austin, and wanted to get one last brisket based meal before leaving the great state of Texas.

I went with the BBQ Brisket bowl ($15.39) with extra brisket because I'm BEAST. The lady at the counter was not in the best mood, but I feel her. Not gonna knock her for that. I don't expect white glove service at the Peached Tortilla in the Austin airport.

You could see them cooking the meat on the grill right in front of you, which gave life to my eternal optimism. I was expecting some microwaved brisket tbh.

This bowl was a pretty solid portion size and the brisket wasn't half bad. At least for my tastebuds.

This is the poster child for 3.5 stars, but I'mma round up to 4. These Yelp/Google ratings should really be out of 10, but that's a conversation for another day.

FOOD POISONING 🤮. I ordered the Cauliflower Tacos December 2nd 2 hours before my flight. I waited 10 minutes for my tacos (no problem there) but some guy grabbed my order when they called my number before I could get to the counter. So the servers made me tacos to replace the ones the guy snatched. But it only took them 1-2 minutes to get them out to me opposed to the 10 minutes I previously waited. I was like ok cool whatever. I ate them, they were really good. Loved the whole meal but as I was on the ramp getting on the plane I started getting really sick. As soon as I sat down on the plane it hit me hard. I spent the first 3 hours of my flight locked in the bathroom throwing up while kind strangers and the flight attendants watched my 3 year old for me. The last 2 1/2 hours I tried to take medicine and suck on ice cubes but couldn't keep anything down. I threw up everything until the next day. I have never been that...

1st of all I ordered the brisket bowl and large drink The lady at the front was friendly and explained to me it would be a minute due to cashier was on break and working both registers so the the gentlemen comes back takes my order and then flips the screen I usually don't tip unless it's a sit down restaurant, but I tip ,wait less than 5 minI get my food and go to my gate as I finish my food I look at my recipe and see that I was hit with a service charge a service/tip charge a I also gave a tip not knowing it was already included....I went back and looked for a sighn that explains what the service charges are for but none to be found....the only sight I saw was signs of dishonesty the food was good but I will take my business elsewhere next time 1 🌟 it's not about the money it's about the...
