The Texas Bucket List - El Perrito in Austin

[@DanTheTrojanMan123]

Whaaaat! I live down the street and seen this truck. Well I now know what I’ll be eating today.

[@stevecampos1960]

So glad you highlighted El Perrito. We El Pasoans love a taste of home every once in awhile. I just discovered El Paso Flauta, which has a similar menu, but also adds chiles relleno, chile colorado and a few other EP favorites. Please consider featuring them. They are on Old San Antonio Rd and Twin Creeks Rd near the Hays Co line, bt Manchaca and Buda. Art Reyes, the owner seems to be a real nice and generous fellow and has an interesting story of how EP Flauta came to be involving his prize-winning spicy queso.

I feel SO privileged living here in Texas. I am exposed to SO MUCH good food. It's purely divine

[@ramencurry6672]

May your belly be full

[@raycortez7111]

God I miss Chico's.. That's my first stop when I move back next month from here in Hereford Texas 50 miles from Amarillo... The Mexican food here doesn't compare to my home town El Paso and I've been here over 5 years...

[@jessicasanchez537]

That women is incredible promo !

[@No-yv5ix]

I pass this place every morning and I had no idea. Austin, you will always have my heart!

[@craigluhr7243]

[@tlhome7565]

WOw you are everywhere!! I never thought I would hear about Cattlemanns in Fabens in the internet! Then in Austin! Awesome.

[@maximus1811]

Was out with my landlady Friday assisting her with a major problem and she wanted to take me out to lunch. She giggled when I said Chico's Tacos. I haven't had some since the day they opened up again during covid. It's one of those cravings that takes me back to when they used to make them with Government Cheese, but we adapted to cheese now used. Still we continue to go to Chico's Tacos 😋🙋‍♀️

[@galva777tx]

I've been craving some Chicos! I may have to take a weekend trip down to Austin and try them out.

[@mrmarcomotor]

God Bless You Ivan!!!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

El Pasoan here...Those tacos looked so good! I'm trying this place next time I'm in Austin.

[@dr.velmasablan3611]

I love Austin, I love Mexican food, and I found myself craving it all as I watched you enjoy LAS COMIDAS!!!!

[@DaBoiZee3]

I live a 10 minute walking distance from there and have always seen it never tried it for sure going today after work

[@texascowboy4604]

Yummy and delicious! Now, I am drooling for our local Taco restaurant's offerings!

[@AussieGem]

[@quinnhen2325]

Omg, we moved to the Adirondacks in August last year. I love it up here but miss HEB, Whataburger, Blue Bell, RR Donuts and Mexican food!!!! This looks incredible!!!!

[@raycortez7111]

[@Amarillobymorning777]

[@daverasco1559]

Last time i made it back to EP went straight from the plane to Chicos. Love it. Work downtown in Austin now, gonna roll and get a double double.

[@carlosh8113]

You forgot the grill cheese lol.

[@aaronmatthewsalinas1408]

I'm from Austin Texas,El Perrito Aka means Little Doggie in Spanish,and there's a restraunt as well in Austin Texas Donn's BBQ has a fantastic breakfast menu as well as taco's,omlettes,menudo etc. and delicious BBQ you should try them some time.

[@seand7349]

Donn's is just ugh aside from breakfast, which they're barely mediocre at. El Perrito doesn't do breakfast. Completely different type of places.

[@joecoolcitizen1493]

Your doing a great job love your KZbin video

[@TheEnnisfan]

Man, I haven't had Chico's in damn near 20 years! I've heard it''s not the same anymore, but that won't stop me from hitting them up when I visit the 915 later this summer.

[@ryandanford5289]

I freakin love Texas, never gonna leave

[@Snappy-ut4bj]

Thumbs up for mixing sauces! Legit.

[@rubenpinon08]

Congratulations keep it up. El Paso food is wonderful… Even the Chicos Tacos

[@starboushe]

The lady was so cute ❤

[@troygreen9321]

Great job

[@russt4716]

Ate there yesterday. I got the ELP combo. It was pretty good, but there are SO many dining options in Austin.

[@mustang3931962]

Looks good

[@giselazapata3902]

Omg my parents neighborhood for more than 20 yrs and I’ve never seen this place!! 😧😧😧 I’m gonna try it this weekend 🤤😮‍💨🤭

[@mistergrendel32]

Is that Gisela or AOC? 😜🤔

[@PapaKryptoss]

That lady was so cool

[@the.a.t.x.traterrestrial84]

I’m literally at The Rusty Cannon 2-3 times a week how have I not gone over here 😤🤣🤣😶🤤

[@xs5767]

Wow! From California

[@chelleroberson3222]

So quick answer what's the difference between taquito and flauta ?

[@franciscosandiego3026]

Yes I like watching Texas bucket list videos on KZbin, from the imperial co California.

[@johnlebzelter4208]

TROLL of the channel right above folks!! ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ He’s still amazed by this whole “internet thing.” He hopes he can be “cool” by commenting the same thing on every video…let’s wish him well with that!🤣🤣🤣

[@eddiev6915]

Great . So where the hell is it?

[@Texicana_512]

Where are they located?

[@starboushe]

Stassney and South First in South Austin 🎉🎉

[@ladennayoung2939]

This food look yummy.

[@garyj2101]

Do you have Google Maps for this location?

[@leskobrandon4666]

You drank a taco, bro!

[@JedTaylor-p1g]

Love LitlHickey on there!

[@KabookiSan]

Tried it this weekend. Paid $30 for the same food shown here plus a hotdog burger. All was bland, very little flavor or spice. Feel this was way over hyped. Honestly tacobell has this beat sad to say. Glad to see they are expanding to the building behind the trailer but for the hype, they really need to up their game.

[@JustJayC]

My roomate in college called El Paso "EPT." When did that change?

[@madrenostrakombucha7569]

EPT, EPTX, Chuco, El-P it’s all good

[@brianmoody2549]

There’s always someone who have’s the heart, and there own style to make it different .

[@billyraisch119]

As an El Pasoan, I can vouch that El Perritos Tacos are even better than Chicos!!!!

[@elerma94]

Don't disrespect chicos like that

[@jomarrufo8]

Anything is better than Chicos tacos. Doesn't taste the same anymore.

[@oakcliffpride]

Where is he located??

[@ramencurry6672]

It’s on google search.

[@eetherealedouble]

Bootleg chicos?

[@robinr5337]

At least he had NM green chile.

[@cesarleon4353]

👍👍👍

[@ElizabethGonzalez-yd9bx]

Way better than chicos 👍🌮🌮🌮🌮

[@chrissyt3703]

More sweets pie, ice cream try Pie in the Sky in Conroe cakes & candy shakes, malts, no breakfast either ? You don’t eat breakfast? Just teasing thank for this review

[@hottubjohnnyvegas]

It was ok.

[@jesflow9721]

This place is better than chicos

[@chelleroberson3222]

Mexican shredded cheese ????

[@aldogomez2681]

ROLL TACOS......

[@cjtrevino2928]

Those are enchiladas my friend, not tacos. Even Chico’s calls them tacos.

[@benniebarrow348]

Looks awesome !........hopefully the sight and aroma of filthy tent communes and the other effects of an over bearing socialist city government won't ruin the experience.

[@angelbelmont2190]

Yikes

[@thetruth7608]

Chuco

[@jcramirez1194]

They look good and everything but should’ve gone somewhere more local, I was expecting something different Next time go somewhere more local there’s tons of taco trucks all over Austin.

[@leticiagerardo9747]

What are you talking about? He has a brick and mortar now, he’s doing great. Doesn’t matter where he goes, the people will follow.

[@patricioovalle6590]

better of that taco bell,yes...better that real mexican food..no...!!

[@JoseCruz-cd8nj]

Drowned flautas or maybe enchiladas 🤦not tacos

[@johanakuperberg4250]

Seems to be horrible junk food normaly you show us good restaurant

[@j.ber.5852]

Bro!!!! Chicos tacos SUCK!!!!!!!!

[@dallassportsfan1346]

Bro! They're not tacos! They're rolled ground meat flautas at best....they're overrated and really it's a poor copycat of The Real Birria Tacos with the Birria broth....they're not good at all, n the fries make no sense at all...Just stating my opinion...

[@danielfred16]

You're absolutely right but many dishes are essentially a copycat of another dish to the point that it makes it unique in its own right

[@geedubb2005]

I’ve lived on the border of Juarez,El Paso and New Mexico for 60+ years and raised on Mexican food and have eaten plenty in Mexico. They’re called rolled tacos. Flautist are usually shredded Meat/brisket/chicken and usually made with a larger corn tortilla making them longer than a rolled taco. Everybody has different taste and the history of Chicos tacos and revenue are proof they are favorites.

[@geedubb2005]

“Flautas”. Spellcheck doesn’t understand Spanish!

[@danm9882]

Don’t eat Mexican food in Texas. You will most likely be disappointed. Be warned, if it’s covered in “sauce” you will be better off at a 7-11.

[@seraphimweepforme]

Uhm have u been to the Rio grande valley? Literally the closest thing you would get to authentic Mexican food ever. Its literally next to the border. Texas is arguably the best place FOR mexican food.

[@dnrmoore4124]

@ Dan where do u eat Mexican.food

[@danm9882]

@@seraphimweepforme maybe but pretty sure it will be terrible and covered in sauce.

[@danm9882]

@@dnrmoore4124 Best I had is in San Diego. Further south you go the better. Worst is in Laredo but San Antonio is a very close second among other Texas Cities.
