You are not a Texan if you don’t obsess about queso. Yes. I said QUESO. As in the melted golden-goodness with loads of tomatoes, peppers, and spice.

There is a constant argument in town over which restaurant or bar has the best queso.

Some will go to restaurants only for their queso.

Some will argue with their last dying breath that “white” queso is better than “yellow” queso.

And some will refuse to eat it if it’s not from a particular place.

Or you could be like me- I’ll eat ANY queso – even the cold “nacho” cheese you get at football games. And I like a variety of quesos in town.

So last week, I reached out to y’all to ask your opinions in both our What’s Happening in Round Rock Facebook Group (not a part of it yet? Join us here!) and the Round the Rock Facebook Page. And I was overwhelmed with the replies – almost 200 replies. Y’all certainly love your queso.

And though we always do our annual “Best of Round Rock” poll each winter, we have never included the category of queso. Maybe we should this upcoming year!

So rather than do a poll to determine “the best”, we’d thought it would be fun to list all the great queso in town in an effort to give lots of restaurants some love. Maybe you can find a new favorite on the list to try!
