What People Are Saying About Curra's Grill
Featured Review
Monika Kowalczyk
Contributor
Curra's Grill has a laid-back atmosphere, with several dining areas indoors and a large patio outside, where patrons can sit at brightly colored picnic tables or tables covered with Mexican tiles. Paintings by local artists add a homey vibe. Items to try include queso flameado, red snapper seviche, and cochinita pibil--shredded pork wrapped in a soft banana leaf and flanked by plantains. There's also taco de cajeta--caramelized goat's milk on a browned flour tortilla.
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- Try the avocado-flavored margarita--it's earned a cult following. But be forewarned: It's almost a meal.
- When to Go:
- Breakfast. Try the huevos divorciados (divorced eggs), a sumptuous dish of eggs on a tortilla separated by black beans.

Best carnitas ever!
by R32 at Citysearch
I have had a few of the menus items and been pleased. Their carnitas with homemade red tortillas however are amazing. Drinks are well made but too sweet at times for me. Last time we were there the server brought us all an extra shot when we asked for a little less sweetness :). Well done service!

The service is great, friendly, and attentive. The food fresh & delish. I eat there every Austin trip I take and tell everyone that's going to Austin. So far every person I've turned on to this delight (approx. 20 thus far) has shared my enthusiasm.
- Pros: The Special Pork & Avocado Margaritas
