Go Floyd Style and ask for chicken fajitas with no veggies.
Two for one burgers on Monday. The Cuban is awesome!
Sam WalshMay 6, 2017Specialty: Cold Beans. El arroyo is an innovative restaurant. It's the first in Austin that aims to serve their food cold! We waited for one hour and 30 minutes for this tasty, brown looking mush.
Duane ShermanJanuary 1, 2012Holiday menu sucks no burger and overpriced Enchiladas with no beans and rice. TNT is better at these prices
