Restaurants near Fair Park

First time visiting VERDAD, I had left a note that it was my girlfriend and I’s anniversary. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a table that had a rose petal heart decorated on it. Multiple managers and other staff members went out of their way to congratulate us and ensure we were enjoying our service. We ordered the fajitas for two and it was genuinely one of the best fajita dishes I’ve had in my life. Drinks are amazing, service is excellent, and noise isn’t bad whatsoever due to the openness of the dining area. Overall wonderful experience!

Park in the Blue Parking garage, which is the closest. The reservation was easy to make; I had to change it twice and doing that was no trouble. The seating staff was only off by about 5 minutes, which wasn't much; the waiter was friendly and immediately at the table. We had heard raves about the pork chop special and those rants were not exaggerated. I'm telling you, that was the best meat of any variety that I have had this year! Oh my goodness, it was huge, maybe 4" x 4 " square, with a sweet, caramelized brown on the sides, applesauce that was a terrific dipping sauce, and the most tender meat you could imagine. Yum yum, I can still taste it. Ya gotta go!

What a great night for dinner with our friends who haven't been here before! The four of us had a relaxing meal with exceptional service, and the food was cooked as ordered. The bill did NOT break the bank; very good pricing with so many options to choose from. My friends said they would be back very soon.

Este just became one of my favorite restaurant in Greater Austin. Right from the start, the tangy, fresh, taste bud tantalizing duo of salsas served with the corn flat bread were fabulous. The rest of the meal, including the desserts, was truly remarkable. All the service staff contributed to bringing the food quickly to our table. They were well trained, being knowledgeable of the menu and engaging in their conversation. We met the very kind manager at the end of our meal and knew right then and there that she was the maestro for this wonderful experience.

Excellent meal. Good vibe. Everything was spot on.
