La Gordibuena Taqueria Restaurant — Restaurant in Lakeway

To anyone wondering - GET LA GORDIBUENA AS YOUR CATERER!!! You will NOT regret it 😍

La gordibuena has been me and my family’s favorite Mexican restaurant in Austin ever since it opened! And keep in mind, we were born and raised in Mexico! If you want authentic, this is where you go! Now, everything on the menu is delicious. The Al pastor tacos are to die for, as are their chilaquiles, and barbacoa tacos! Their drinks are phenomenal as well, I love their frozen margs!

It was really cool because my husband and I recently got married, and we asked La Gordibuena to cater for our rehearsal dinner - and to say they did an EXCELLENT job is to put it lightly! They far exceeded our expectations - they brought staff to make our tacos on site and as fresh as they could be - they brought for different kind of excellent meats - white corn (a fan favorite! Even my husband’s family who are all American were going crazy for it!!!!), the margaritas with all different flavors - I mean, our rehearsal dinner was such a HIT and it was because La Gordibuena outdid themselves. Everybody, Mexican family and American, told us just HOW MUCH they loved their dinner.

Marisol, the owner, was a total pleasure to work with - she was so detail oriented, ensuring even the small details such as the cups and plates would look aesthetically pleasing. Marisol, thank you SO MUCH for everything. We can’t thank you enough and can’t recommend your...

Gordibuena had become our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. We used to go there at least once a week. Food is good and service is great. However, today we ‘met’ the owner who treated us in the rudest way. She greeted us from the kitchen with a “NO NO NO NO NO NO”, granted we were holding two bottles of mimosas, we didn’t know they sold mimosas at the place and we wanted to celebrate my step son’s last meal with us before he headed to the airport. After yelling several “NOs” and hand gesturing, she ‘articulated’ that they now sold beer and wine and we weren’t allowed to bring our own. To which I responded “oh, I didn’t know you sold wine here” and proceeded to take our bottles to the car. If she had had better manners, and would’ve been able to articulate that information in a more welcoming way we would’ve understood right away and probably bought mimosas for the whole table and had a good time. Instead we ate our meal feeling so unwelcome, uncomfortable and I with no desire to go back...

I do not recommend this mexican restaurant..if you live or are in the area do stop to eat here..Bad customer service to begin with.To begin they had children working the driveway. A young boy very un profesional really bad customer service. Employee were playing in the open area..They had me waiting over 30 minutes and the parking lot was empty. The food was very small portions for the price. And the taste was bland no taste, even needed more salt added to my food, thats how bland the food taste was. I got 2 sopes very small portions size for the price, and the corn tortillas was not cooked fully, had more lettuce then meat on it. I do not recommend this mexican restaurant if you live in the area or just passing through do stop here. For the price of the meal they charge. It is not good, no flavor no taste very dry bland food. Go to Don Mariosdown the street way better customer service plus food has flavor and zasss to it, portions are well served for the price...do not recommend la...
