Antojitos Hondureños El Progreso

Food takes way too long to get ready and it’s not that good. Too greasy for my taste. Not coming back.

Great food! I am Mexican but my husband is Honduran and I am HOOKED on this food! If you’ve never tried it give it a shot you won’t be disappointed. Try the Baleadas, they’re my fave! It’s a handmade Flour tortilla with homemade rice and beans with cream and cheese. Or if you get the «Special» one they add Carne (meat) and scrambled eggs!
Or the Pollo con tajadas! Superb!

EDIT:
I lowered their rating from 4 to 3 stars. On a couple of occasions, their meat tends to be overcooked, and that kind of inconsistency can ruin a meal. No one wants to fight with piece of meat. Everything else is till spot on.
I’m not sure if there are any Austin Unilocalers who are considered the authority on Honduran food. If you’re out there, thank you for holding my spot, but I’ll take it from here. First things first. The Baleada.
This is quintessential street fare, not to mention the most ubiquitous in Honduras. An over sized, handmade flour tortilla filled with refried beans, scrambled eggs, crumbled white cheese, and cream. That’s a sencilla (simple) version. You should take the baleada con carne which is that same thing with grilled beef added. These things are huge. You only order one. Seriously. Next, let’s talk plantains.
Growing up, fried sweet plantains were a mandatory part of any Honduran meal. Here, they serve it the way it would be served at home. The fried plantain is sliced, then served with refried beans, crumbled white cheese, and cream on the side. Top it with as much as you like and go crazy. It’s delicious.
There are other dishes to try, and you should explore the options, but not before you’ve tried these two. Honorable mentions go to the Chicharron con Yuca (fried pork rinds with cassava) and the Carne Asada con Tajadas (grilled meat with fried green plantains.) If you want to do this properly, you should also ask for a «Banana» to drink. It’s a soda and you can probably guess the flavor.
The last thing I’ll tell you is that, no matter what you order, you need to ask for a side of «encurtido.» Shut up and do it!
Almost forgot to mention that this is a CASH ONLY establishment. Enjoy your meal!

You get consistent and authentic Honduran food because the same staff is there every time I go. The baleadas are as close to what you get if you travel to Honduras!
The horchata isn’t from some powder mix, it’s awesome!
Support this business!
This is the same food truck that was at 6917 N. Lamar under the Quirky Tattoo sign!
They moved and this new location is easy to miss, it is on the west side of Lamar between Clay Imports and Faris Tires and across the street from On The Green Apartments.
