5 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Cedar Creek

“Love the food made with love fresh and homemade owners there to greet u also working cooking and serving“

“Route 71 between Bergstrom Airport and Bastrop is kind of a food desert. But they are just now starting to get food trucks. However, there is one food truck that has been in Cedar Creek forever. Mi Barrio at 71 and Pope Bend. This is an absolutely superlative food truck. If you needed one and only one place to eat along Route 71, This is the one you would want. * * * Tex-Mex is the order of the day here. The menu is very traditional. They are unapologetic about offering "alternative parts of the animal" such as tripas. The food is firey hot but hot with magnificent flavor. I never understood why people told me that Tex-Mex food is spicy. It isn't spicy in most places. It IS spicy at Mi Barrio. And this is fire you could learn to love. * * * Four notes of interest. a) I had the chicken fajitas. At bad Mexican food trucks, they use cheap chicken, Chicken that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. They use high integrity high quality ingredients at Mi Barrio. You could serve this chicken to your mother. b) Even though Mi Barrio is right next to Cedar Creek High School, I have never once seen a Cedar Creek High School student there. You go to the fast food restaurants near Westwood High in Austin, and they are packed with Westwood High students. I suspect the principal at Cedar Creek is stricter than the principal at Westwood High about letting students off school grounds. c) Most of the customers do not eat at the food truck. All of the customers I saw were working class Mexican. A few ordered for themselves and went off to eat someplace. A few others came in to get large orders that I presume were taken back to some work crew. The location is not wonderful. They are in the parking lot of a fairly cruddy Exxon convenience store. Highway 71 scenery is not magnificent. d) This place opens early and closes early. They will be there for breakfast. They will be there for lunch even if you wander in around 1-ish. I am a late afternoon kind of a guy which generally means I found them closed. * * * It would be snarky for me to say this is the best eating on Route 71, given the nearly total lack of competition. But it is more meaningful to say this place can stand up with The best of the Mexican/Central American food trucks on North Lamar in Austin AND The best of the Mexican/Central American food trucks on Route 812 in Del Valle. These are concentrations of really excellent Mexican food. You might not want to drive 35 miles to eat here. The location is ugly. This ain't no picture postcard. But if you DO stop and eat here, ignoring the view, You will eat very well indeed.“

“One more time friends, this place has the best Tex-Mex food. The employees are very friendly ,I feel very comfortble dining there. I dine once a week just love it. Everything is just "Great".“

“From the location, the property and buildings, helpfulness and attitudes of the staff everything exceeded my expectations. I arrived very late at night and the check in process was smooth. The grounds and facilities were beautiful, and although I did not get to try the spa, golf club or gym, they all looked fantastic“

“My family's experience was just wonderful. Our server was so helpful and even though the menu was brand new he was able to help us find what we wanted. The chef came and spoke with us about the menu as well and was so friendly and delightful. He even brought our kids a "secret stash" of gummy worms which that just about made their day. The food presentation was beautiful and my fish i had was cooked to perfection. My husband had the waygu steak and it melted in your mouth. So the food was amazing but the service is really what makes it a 10 out 10 experience. Cant wait to go again.“
