10. Ma'Coco
Reviewed By HouMSW
This charming little space is still in its soft opening phase, but already we can see its promise.Bastrop is rife with Tex-Mex. Ma'Coco is different. Dishes are imaginative and made with care. Onions on the tacos are house-pickled. A streak of hot sauce livens the taste and appearance of elote. We barely scratched the surface, and the menu continues to be developed.They are still working on decor. Judging from facebook photos, they've gone all out for Dia de los Muertos. With nice weather, the outdoor patio should be very popular.We will for sure be back.

Place doesn't look like much from the outside but it is the food that matters. I had a Carnitas burrito and my family had the enchilada with crispy taco plates. The food was delicious and my family really liked the Mexican gravy over the enchiladas.
8. Casa Chapala
Reviewed By TexWorldTraveler
This is a family-owned business that has excellent service and wonderful Tex-Mex food. It has a great buffet at a reasonable price, or menu orders. The margarit's are also just right. The manager came over and introduced herself and had a great conversation. We had passed by it a number of times, but first time to stop. Highly recommend it.

Had multiple appetizers. All great! With an okay margarita. Not bad but have had better. But service and food was very good in a lively atmosphere.

6. Morelia Mexican Grill
Reviewed By Great_Beer_Now
Driving from Austin to Houston presents mostly empty spaces, with a scattering of small towns along the way. We found ourselves making the trek back home from Austin one day when everyone felt the need for lunch. Mexican food was on our minds and that was enough to lead us to visit Morelia Mexican Grill in Bastrop. This restaurant features a pleasant interior that has colorful surroundings, dim lighting, etc and has the look and feel of a Mexican/TexMex restaurant, as it should. The seating and service are prompt and even though we were not in a hurry, we were treated promptly and appreciated that we did not have to wait. For food, Morelia Mexican grill serves appetizers, soup, salad, tacos, fajitas, combo plates, chimichangas, burritos, and enchiladas; in other words, the usual Mexican fare. They even serve other items you may not expect to find in this type of restaurant, like steaks, seafood, and pasta dishes. Appetizers might be a good place to start if youâre exceptionally hungry. Some of them, like the quesadillas, can serve as a main course meal while others, like the bean tostada, are really meant as a warm- up to your main course.My family and I mostly ordered combo meals when we visited, consisting of enchiladas, tacos, fajitas, and traditional sides such as rice and refried beans. We found the quality of the food good overall and it tasted fresh- much better than what I sometimes experience in Mexican restaurants that prepare large volumes of food ahead of time and stick everything in a microwave before serving to the customers. The taste and freshness were better at Morelia Mexican Grill and we left feeling satisfied. The small towns scattered between Austin and Houston are often necessary stopping points when you travel between the two cities. Eating is often a must when traveling from one major Texas city to next and Morelia Mexican Grill is a very good option when youâre craving Mexican or TexMex food. Itâs just a short drive east from Austin and the food, service, and atmosphere are easily enough to earn this dining establishment an above average rating.

Good, authentic Mexican breakfast right on Main Street in Bastrop TX. Nice size portions, good service and prices. My personal favorite is the Huevos a la Mexicana. I omit the rice and get double beans with the eggs (which are cooked to perfection). Choice of flour or corn tortillas. Their salsa is very good, just the right spice. YUM!

I often eat lunch here with my sister. The service is fast and friendly and the food is pretty good. If you go with a large group you can order fajitas for the table.

The best Margarita in town and a reasonable price. Beef fahitas that practically melt in your mouth. Generous portions of all meals and a friendly wait staff. Will accommodate groups of 20 or more with ample parking right on Hwy 71 close to Walmart. Their all-you-can-eat specials are mouth-watering.

Holy tamales! This place is fantastic! If youâre passing through, you need to stop here. Come hungry. The food is so good. We had the Fajitas Especiales, which were beef, onions, mushrooms, and pepper, all topped with cheese. While the fajita beef itself was âjustâ goodâI prefer more of a smoky flavor, but thatâs just the way I make themâthere was plenty of it for two. So, yeah, donât order the ones for two if itâs just two people, unless you have mighty appetites. The whole package was fantastic. The salsa was authentic and good. The charro beans I could eat as soup for a meal! Rice had a lot of good flavor. Well, I could go on, but come experience it yourself. Itâs a small place with limited seating, but it does have table service with pretty good servers. But, even at 1:30 on a Saturday, we were able to get a table right away. There were a couple more empty tables, but about 90% of the tables were occupied. Obviously the locals appreciate this little gem.
