Why We Are The Destination for El Original in Round Rock

El Original is exactly what it sounds like — the original, the classic, the combo plate that defines what Tex-Mex is all about. This plate brings together multiple Rio Grande classics in one satisfying spread: enchilada, taco, and other Tex-Mex staples, all served with Mexican rice and your choice of refried, charro, or black beans. It's the plate that's been on the menu from the beginning because it's exactly what people come to a Tex-Mex restaurant for. If you want the classic experience at Rio Grande, start here.

For years, Rio Grande has been a staple of the community, known for bringing people together over steaming plates and cold drinks. Our commitment to quality means every tortilla is made fresh, and every margarita is mixed with care.
