Curra's Grill has operated on East Oltorf in Greater South River City since 1995, built around interior Mexican cooking rather than the Tex-Mex fare more common around Austin. The dining room mixes traditional Mexican art with Loteria and Austin-themed paintings.
Regulars point to the mole enchiladas as a standout, and the avocado margarita has become the drink most associated with the place. Reviewers also single out the chile relleno — stuffed with beef, potatoes, raisins, and walnuts — along with tacos encebollados, pollo maniaco, carnitas, and flautas, while enchiladas and caldo show up often in broader reviewer feedback. Portions run smaller relative to price, and the kitchen doesn't shy away from serious heat in its spiced dishes.
Curra's Grill also runs a full catering operation out of the same kitchen, handling everything from office parties to weddings. The restaurant has been named to the Eater 38.
