Texas Chili Parlor

IN LOVE! Never had a better chilli in Texas in my 35 years of existence! The attention the I’m assuming manager/owner gave us! That tip tier southern hospitality! I highly recommend the chilli dog. The chips and queso with the chilli and the chilli burger and if you like a little spice the MEDIUM is where it’s atttttt!!!! Ohhh and if you like a little drinky drink?! The MAD DOG MARGARITA will get you right! Coming back every time I’m in Austin or PASSING BY!!! Thank you all for the hospitality and experience!!!!

Stopped in around 9:00 pm 😋 and ordered the steak and enchilada plate, the pork chop (hands down the best), and a chili baked potato. Everything was solid, but the pork chop really stood out. I loved the old-school bar feel—there’s signage everywhere, and I caught myself looking around a lot just taking it all in. The place has character. The environment and how close it was to my hotel are big reasons it earned 4 🌟s. Overall, it was different, unique, and the service was great.

Walked in to eat before UT basketball game. Old school Austin vibe. The food was good. The chili on our enchiladas was the XX but really had no spice so will be back to try the XXX on frito pie. The chips, salsa and queso were tasty.

You ever walk into a smallish looking dingy dungeon with glowing red lights? That's the ambience of the TCP and it's awesome. You walk into a different world of vintage signs, with a classic looking little bar on your left where you know the regulars sit daily. You're escorted to a table that's jammed among other tables in a rustic setting. And I absolutely love the vibe. The service is amazing and the atmosphere is to match. $25 ribeye steak with potato and salad is the perfect meal for a great price. The chili is spicy as is the waitresses. I would recommend using a bathroom before going into The TCP as you have to duck into the men's washroom through a 20 inch door and avoid the sink at the same time. The washroom is the size of a small closet. But that also adds to the vibe. W

Great food in a dive bar type atmosphere. The chili is awesome. Huge chunks of tender meat. Gumbo and potato salad were great as well. And the staff was on point. Food was hot and came out fast.
