Greasy. Cheesy. Fattening. It's amazing. Lol. I loved it. The fries were good too. They had a nice kick of flavor to them compared to McDonald's. The burgers are huge though. That's the only thing. I'd come back and try the other items.
62 Restaurant and Wine Bar

Decided to to back and check out Sixty2 again with friends on a Saturday evening. We had a 7:30PM reservation. When we arrived the place was packed full with people, but we were thankfully seated promptly. Very pleased to say they've made some improvements! Noticed they added some acoustic treatment to the dining room ceiling which REALLY helps to keep cow-mouthed patrons at bay! While conversation was humming amongst us we never felt we had to raise our voice much beyond regular conversation levels. They unfortunately still are stuck with a seasonal liquor license...alas no proper martinis...only those of the cordial-type...albeit creative. The solid wine list was very much appreciated. Our server was very attentive and asked us how "everything tasted" a few minutes after serving each course. Appetizers were served promptly. Highly recommend the arancini. Marinated mushrooms were realy good as well...but you definately want something to with 'em. I wasn't crazy about the salads...very oily still...they need to improve salad options. The restaurant was very busy so we did have to wait a bit for our entrees to arrive. Our party was satisfied with the entrees overall. Was slightly disappointed that menu hadn't changed much since my first visit. While quality is high, I'm still not completely sure if it's worth it value-wise. I have had better food elsewhere for less $$...but I gotta give it to Sixty2 for hanging in there, making improvements, and becoming a great addition to the Salem restaurant scene! I look forward to returning and seeing continued enhancements! Looking forward to revised menu and full liquor license to start. Sixty2 gets an additional star!

Love this place for the food. It's also super expensive and it looks like they had some staff turnover and things have changed a bit. Still one of my faves but they need to bring back the old crew.
La Cocina de Consuelo

Tell them you want a Gerry. It's potato, egg, cheese, bacon and avocado on a wheat tortilla. Actually if you tell them you want a Gerry they will probably just look at you funny because it has yet to make it onto the list of specialty breakfast tacos next to the register. But nonetheless, La Cocina de Consuelo produces the best breakfast tacos in Austin hands down.

Best food at Disney is in my opinion at Boma at the Animal Kingdom resort Go hungry, it is a buffet. And there is a carving station with prime rib It will cost you about $55.00 for dinner and a drink Make a reservation
Porfirio's Tacos
📍 Address: 1512 Holly St, Austin
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4)
Tacos here are dirt cheap and quick, but really just a resounding meh. Not terrible but not worth going out of the way for either. A taco should not be a complicated thing and I applaud Porfirio's dedication to simplicity. The only semblance of interior decoration are business cards tacked on the wall and the coffee is self-serve, which is awesome. But both the tacos I tried, a potato, egg and bean, and chorizo were incredibly underwhelming. The tortillas are rubbery, the potato and egg were too salty, while the chorizo definitely wasn't greasy enough. The green salsa however, is excellent. They should bottle that stuff.
