Good place. Definitely a must if you live in the area. Not something I would make a special trip across town bit it’s fine. Usually good produce too. Avacados, lemons all that stuff.

If you’re looking for a simple breakfast taco(as opposed the fancy stuff at taco deli), then you’d be hard pressed to beat la tierra linda. Basic, amazing, cooked to order, tacos. Burritos are also top notch. Don’t forget to get some of the amazing salsa. That avocado fire stuff is awesome.

You’d never guess it from outside, but that was easily the cleanest gas station/market bathroom I’ve been in outside of a Bucees.(And I’ve seen more than my share of gas station bathrooms.) Tacos smelled delicious but I walked in as they were shutting down. I’ll be back on a lunch break soon.

Came to this little spot today hungry as hell. MYGOD. BREAKFASTBURRITOS. ONCEAGAIN, BREAKFASTBURRITOS. As much as i love me a good breakfast taco, a breakfast burrito was a staple in San Francisco for me. These guys got it down. Same with there Carne Asada Burrito. My mouth was watering as I watched them make the delicious treat that I was about to consume. They are the gods among mexican food, the queen of sheeba, the conquestadors of cheese. I will be back, alot too. Great spot to find today. BOOM.

My favorite Taqueria is located inside. Anytime you get pissed off and need good food for cheap, go here. Authentic Mexican food! Also their Gatorade selection is un matched. want soda? They’ve got everything glass and plastic. need to be beered? theyve got most of anything you’d want from a convenient store including local breweries.

How freakin’ awesome is THIS place?! Meats! Tacos! Cell phones! Gas! Cigarettes! Beer! I mean, I could pretty much just shop here the rest of my life and I’d be set. The people who work here are nice, so I already like this place. Lots of produce in here(for a gas station), and everything looks clean and fresh. Seriously, this place is great — wish I’d found in years ago. I’ll be back for some breakfast tacos soon!

Cheap meat here! And it is not questionable. Some of the vegetables are so you should be careful sifting through them. They aren’t always as fresh as one would hope. La Familia doesn’t just have the typical gas station junk food(although they do have it). It’s like a mini grocery store. They also have a taqueria inside — get tacos! Get migas! Don’t forget to get an Alligator Ice on your way out. Man… so sugary and delicious. I would choose La Familia over any Walgreens just to pick up a few groceries because as the others mentioned — everything is reasonably priced.

This is a nice grocery store right off Research. Carries mostly Mexican food items, but also a lot of things you would not expect in a store this size. Baked goods, produce, and assorted frozen items. The best part is that you don’t have to pay extra for the convenience. Prices are the same that you would find at the bigger grocery stores. The meat market here has almost everything you can get at Fiesta and at the same price as well. I highly recccomend their carnitas and the green salsa you get with it. That was some of the freshest salsa I have had in Austin. If you’re tired of the parking, long lines and the large crowds then come here.

That I’ve lived within walking distance of this place for 4 months and never set a foot inside is a great injustice. What appears at first glance to be a medium-sized convenience store attached to a gas station is in fact a small grocery store, complete with produce, dairy, a meat market, basic staples and a decent beer selection. There’s also an excellent and cheap short order taqueria within. The offerings are overwhelmingly Mexican as the name implies(half of an aisle is dedicated to La Costeña products alone) but they have quite a bit beyond that too, just about anything you would need in a pinch in the way of canned vegetables. Best of all, it’s CHEAP. Grocery store prices rather than convenience store prices.
