De Nada Cantina

Jordyn was such a great server. She made our experience. She gave great authentic advice on what to order and what to drink. Excited to come back!

I came here after I saw somebody talk about it on tiktok and it was definitely worth the hype staff was amazing especially for a newer venue which has only been open for 4 years. The Austin tacos are very competitive market and de nada has found a way to make it even more competitive with Mexico City themed restaurant and lots of art all over the wall.

So happy to have found this spot ! Tacos on blue corn ! yummy carnitas and barbacoa ! great margaritas! all gluten free yay! Wednesday they have Al Pastor small bar but large outside area ! !delicioso! great salsas !

What a nice surprise this place was! We ordered the queso (one of the best I’ve had!), watermelon ceviche (I can never have regular salsa ever again!) pescado taco (loved how light it was!), black bean and cheese quesadilla (awesome recommendation ) and my husband had the barbacoa taco (he inhaled it!)… Edgar, our server, was amazing! He was so fun and super attentive!

Best barbacoa tacos ever w/ blue corn tortilla shells. Delicious house margs. So yummy. Would literally come back to Austin just to have these tacos again. Good job De Nada. Also nice vibes. Very happy.

This place is visually interesting lots of outdoor covered seating. Packed on a Wednesday evening 530. The food was all really good and we enjoyed a mixture of 3 salsa, queso, guacamole and chips and the salsa be careful they increase in spicy! But loved them all! 2 margaritas frozen a mango and a strawberry was perfect on this 103 degrees May day! We also tried the burria deep fried cheesy quesadilla with some sort of sauce and they melted in your mouth! Visually you are like wait what is that? But definitely a true real Mexico quesadilla. If we hadn't drove definitely would of tried more Margaritas but I drank half of a small and gave rest to the one not driving! Place was hopping, food and drink was amazing prices are very reasonable!

The minute we landed in Austin I began searching for the best taco I could find. Being a review person, I found some spots that had so-so feedback and nothing really caught my attention. Well thats when I came across De Nada. "You are Welcome" was this an arrogant preemptive display of we know you'll be thanking us when its over or was this a simple warm greeting? Turns out it was both. As we pulled up the parking was a bit tricky but seeing the active parking lot and copious amount of people in and around the building, we knew we had stumbled upon exactly what we were looking for. We didn't have a reservation (definitely make one if you plan to stop in) and got lucky enough to slide in on the last available table inside. Our server was pleasant and present which made my party of 4 feel welcomed right away. We had chips and sauces for an appetizer and a variety of tacos to boot. Paired with some delicious but expensive drinks and this was everything we had hoped it would be. I would suggest making a reservation and limiting the drinks if you are on a budget but make this one a must try.

The host service could have been better for our first time there. She was on the phone and didn’t acknowledge us. No one was answering her, so a quick “please give me a moment” would have been appreciated. They sat us by the bar which I wouldn’t recommend since an employee spilled a whole iced drink on me and did not apologize until I got up. Also, while we were trying to enjoy the meal, they were reprimanding an employee right behind me, which to each their own but please take it to the kitchen. Maybe y’all were just having a bad Tuesday, but regardless, I hope y’all take this as feedback because despite all the place itself is great. Our server was amazing, he was an angel. The food was also great, highly recommend their quesadillas. Their drinks are STRONG, so expect them to taste like a strong drink, but get it nonetheless.
