Best Breakfast Tacos in Austin
The breakfast taco is Austin’s love language — flour tortilla, eggs, and whatever your heart desires, wrapped and eaten on the move.
The Icons
Veracruz All Natural — handmade corn and flour tortillas, the migas taco (eggs scrambled with tortilla strips, cheese, jalapeño) is the one. Multiple locations including a food truck. Joe’s Bakery on East 7th — the OG Tex-Mex breakfast. Juan in a Million — the Don Juan taco (eggs, bacon, potato, cheese) is a gut bomb of perfection. Cisco’s on East 6th — cash only, been serving since 1948.
Modern Favorites
Tacodeli — the otto taco (grilled chicken, feta, avocado, corn relish) started the ’elevated breakfast taco’ conversation. Multiple locations. Pueblo Viejo — a food truck with some of the best al pastor in Austin. Valentina’s Tex Mex BBQ — brisket breakfast taco on a handmade tortilla. This changes lives.
How to Order
Flour tortilla is standard. Corn is available but less common for breakfast tacos. ‘Migas’ = eggs scrambled with tortilla strips. ‘A la Mexicana’ = eggs with tomato, onion, jalapeño. Salsa verde goes on everything. Order 2-3 tacos per person. Most places are counter service — grab, eat, go.
