13 Fresas in South Austin

Fresa's in South Austin is a recent discovery. It's off of south 1st street, so it's a trek to get there if you live up north. But it's absolutely worth it.

I've only ever been here in the evenings on the weekend, and it's always quite busy. I highly recommend making sure you get a reservation before you go. Otherwise you run the risk of having a very long wait. 

This place is a Mexican style restaurant and it is fantastic.

We tried an appetizer called Black Bean Pachucos. It's queso monterey, crispy corn masa with avocado verde salsa and crema. Just say yes to these. They were crispy and delightful. 

For the main menu Justin got the Chimichuri Skirt Steak Fajitas, while I got a chicken taco and a shrimp taco. For sides we had beans and rice, then some Mexican street corn. I cannot say enough good things about all of this food. The taste was fantastic, the meat was tender and flavorful. Everything was just divine.

The of course we had to try dessert - churros with dulche de leche. I could eat these all day long. So good. 

I honestly cannot say enough good things about how delicious this food was. You've got to try this place. 

We give it 5 out of 5 stars.
