Ok where is the best place to get a Mexican Breakfast? Its the hardest darn thing to find. Fess up & share your favorite spot !

The steak house in Three Rivers is pretty good...

El Azteca on FM 1902 (Old Granbury Road) in the Crowley Joshua area about a mile South of 1187. Dang good. They only do breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays.

Juan in a Million in Austin

Magoo's Place in Alpine, Texas is THE place.

After you finish off the chorizo and migas, take your coffee outside to Magoo's front porch and enjoy being in God's Country. You might pause and say a prayer for those poor fools across the street at McDonalds as they try to choke down their sausage and bisquits. Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they eat.

Taco shack on 83 in Leakey Texas......

^^^^

Alejandros in Tuscola has an outstanding breakfast. The migas are awesome...and they have huevos al orden that will make your mouth water...

Arandas Restaurants in the Houston area are good, I love their chilaquiles. El Taco Regio in Stafford on Murphy Rd is great has señoritas bonitas serving is a big +.

For on the go breakfast, the Laredo Taco Company at Stripes gas stations in S.Texas are great. Fresh hand made tortillas and awsome food.

LG's in Winters... the definiton of whole in the wall but they have homemade hand rolled tortillas that will rival my grandma's

Ray's in Olney, same folks that had Granny's in Graham but now have a full resturant.

I like the Sheraton in Cancun !

Brunch at either Mattito's or The Mansion in Dallas...

Alejandras in Ballinger is one of the best places I have ever eaten at, period. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, i havnt had a bad meal yet.

Lindo's in Huntsville is about the best all-around Mexican food I've had. Their Mexican-style breakfast platter is incredible. And cheap!

Angelica's in Pearsall is AWESOME- and I'd eat there everyday if I could- but waaaaaay too far for me to drive for a meal.

Ama's in Hearne.

It is good, actually very good, but far from the best....
Well I will change that. It is the best Ballinger has to offer.

Allsup's famous burritos

As it is so accurately described, what about in the DFW metro mess. Fuzzy's has been pretty good, but its not the real deal.

Do you know any place in the Dallas area especially!

El Azteca's off of 1902 between Crowley and Joshua or one of the Esperanza's in Ft Worth (Esperanza's is named for Joe T's daughter), Esperanza's bakery is damn good too

Two charizo and egg tacos from the most run down cheapest place you can find on the wrong side of town is about as good as mexican breakfast gets to me.

Arturos Taqueria in Spring Tx. Its a hole in the wall type place, but there food is pretty good.

GO REBS

Drove by the places hundreds of times. Did not want to make the trip into Ballinger so pulled in. It was absolutely, hands down, the worst meal I have ever eaten in my life!!!

Tio Tony's in Midlothian ....mmmmm mmmmm good

Lupita's, about 3300 S Western in Amarillo. Very good. If you like spicy, try the chile verde.

Lupita's, about 3300 S Western in Amarillo. Very good. If you like spicy, try the chile verde.

Elena's in Farmers Branch. A literal hole-in-the-wall on Valwood, 2 blocks east of 35E, but when you have finished your bacon egg & cheese or chorizo & egg, or potato & egg migas... look me in the eye & tell me you ever had better!!!!

Benito's Kitchen at the Star Mart in Hogansville, on 515 headed out to Lake Fork from Emory. It is truly the best Mexican breakfast I have ever eaten.

So what makes "a mexican breakfast" all of you are talking about? A burrito? Taco? what????

+1 Rays in Olney

Ther are so many ways to go.

Huevos a la Mexicana
Huevos con chorizo
Huevos rancheros
Migas
Go to have some tortillas and salsa ( I like the green best)
Add a few refied beans and diced potatos mixed with sauteed onions, and chiles
Lord, I am getting hungry just thinking avout it.

Chilaques. Beef fajita. Refried beans.
Favorite breakfast.

Tacos al pastor on corn tortillas with cilantro and onion with extra limes.
2nd favorite breakfast.

GO REBS

Trine's Super Taco in La Pryor.

Captain Jack reminded me of where I had eaten the best Mexican breakfast in the world. Sorry Cheryl yours is the best, did not want your Hacienda overrun with Gringos.

Hubbards in Garland and Rowlett has a pretty good Mexican Breakfast.

Dang, forgot about that place, haven't been to Amarillo by Morning in a long time, thank God.

I think my favorite mexican breakfast is chips and queso with a cold beer or two! Next favorite is beef fajita or thin steak, with fried eggs, refried beans, cheese, tortillas and some good chips and salsa

Place in Waco Texas.....CAllED LEAL's and the owner is one of the classiest guys you would ever want to meet or support.

Caesar Leal........ Great guy and GREAT FOOD

House Cafe Richardson..its owned by a mexican lady..the service is the best..breakfast for under 7 bucks..

Huevos Rancheros I had this past Saturday at Texas Spice.
Best breakfast I have had in recent memory.

San Juan's in Port A!!!

Mary's in Goldthwaite has some dang good breakfast burritos!

That looks Muy Bueno, where is this place at?

Omni Dallas -

There is this place called Taco Bueno. Sorry can't remember the location.

We like Mexico City Cafe in Cross Plains... Can't beat a Highway 36 Omelet!

Fuzzy's in Dallas, Valero Country store in Bluff Dale,El Nopalito in New Braunfels,Downtown cafe in Spur.

Foo Foo, Boo Foo what ever. I don't care what the place looks like,I just want some good mezican food!!

You fellows ever in Bandera, the Mexican Rest downtown by across
from the old Cabret is pretty good..usually can get Huevos Rancheros w/Barbacoa and the fixings w/Tea or Coffee for around
$5 or $6 bucks depending on how many extra tortillias one orders
and the Barbacoa is really good..DD

Bufford went to Elena's this am, I have to tell you, it was Muy Bueno me Amigo! Worth the 20 + minute drive. Had Huevos ranchero's with Papa & Chorizo fried together on the side.



Yepper it was way good!

^^^^^ that looked good!

At my son's house in Tyler this past weekend. Went down the street (north on Rusk) then west on Vine and found a little mexican place that make killer breakfast burritos. I'll try to find the name of the place. Free bean pot with breakfast as well.

love some mexican food!! thats why i married one and i manage a mexican restaurant

What restaurant do you manage, and where is it located. I try to patronize THF places.

Kev

It was so good that I went back there last Sunday am and did it again!

I wonder if the Mexican restaurant (real Mexican, not Gringo) place we used to go for migas/breakfast is still across the highway from UT in Austin -don't remember the name n ow. Been 25 years so it's not likely. They had great food and a friendly staff!!...

And, what is the name of the soft rolls they filled with spiced ground beef? Is that a standard item that has a name?
Thanks,
JW

Torta?

I always stop at Bad Azz Burrito on Blue Mound, just North of 820 on the way to work. They know exactly what I want and it's very nice. I get a bean, cheese, and egg taco with fresh pico, salsa verde, and a bowl of pickled chiles and carrots on the side for less than 2 bucks. They will make anything you can dream up, and they're fast. Even got a drive through.

Now, for lunch and dinner, you can't beat Casa Lopez in Decatur.

That's the high point of our annual trips to west Texas is stopping to eat in Balinger

try the k c steak sometime. It's a great meal but you may want to push it down with a ice cold ?????? afterwords.

Just got back from Tipico's, ordered the exact same dish as I did from Elenas. Ordered Huevos rancheros with the Potato's & Chorizo cooked together, beans and O.J. I enjoyed my breakfast at Tipico's, but Elenas was definetly better.

First picture is Tipico's, second Elenas.


Elenas

Elena's looks 10000x better

Always green salsa with eggs, but they both look like food to me.

That is what I am talking about.

That looks amazing.

Elvira's in Waxahachie is a great pit stop on the way in.

!

yum

"Elena's in Farmers Branch. A literal hole-in-the-wall on Valwood, 2 blocks east of 35E"

Glad you posted that; I drive close all the time and did not know it was there. I am looking forward to trying it this week.

Edit: I figured out where we used to eat breakfast in Austin:
Cisco's Restaurant, East 6th St. Seemed good at the time but it's been 25 years... Don't know about these days....

El Rodeo in Lampasas. Migas, Ranchero, revueltas. breakfast Tacos and beans and rice or papas. Very authentic and very Tex-Mex. The other mexican places in Lampasas are garbage.

North Texas - El Grande Burrito in Allen
Central West tx - Mexico City in Cross Plains texas
South Tx (Cotulla)- (not sure if there is a name but some old house turned into a restaurant. If you have had a bomba, then you know what I am talking about)

Dang I'm getting hungry. Who's got a winner in H-town or out west of Austin?

On the way in from where? Please.

La Popular, Pine Street Abilene Texas. I suggest the bean&bacon burritos.

taqueria chihuahua giddings texas on 290 between Houston and Austin, dont go on Saturday early AM if you are in a hurry, The wait is worth it though.Fresh everything made right in front of you.

Menudo is great if you like Munudo.

You guys if in Bandera..try Mi Pueblo..Huevos Rancheros w/Barbacoa, and flour tortillas..or Magues in Boerne same deal
on the weekends..DD

Jaliscos in Belton has good breakfast burritos
Jardin Corona in Austin also has good burritos

Another vote for Alejandra's in Ballinger! Dine there most every day when we're at the lease (sometimes twice a day). Good marks on the value scale.

El Paraiso Restaurant in Zapata, TX. North of Hwy 16 on 83.

Both the best mexican breakfast, and chicken fried steak all in one.

I have not had it in over two years, and it still calls to me. Every CFS I have had since has left me wanting.

Montes!! Locations in cleburne, Granbury, godley and a few more scattered about

Son of a biscuit! I was about to eat some waffles but now I'm going to get mexican food instead.

Dos Amigos is the best mexican breakfast, and the price is right. Off of Washington in Houston.

The Mecca is legendary if you never been there. Have not been in year since they moved locations from Harry Hines.

If you ever in Hubbard Texas, try El Original, get their breakfast burrito with mex sausage and the works, dang good....

I take it you didn't like the coffee?

Coffe was good, 3rd cup that morn, saved room for the grub !!

HardWired, El Paraiso is hard to beat. That Chicken Fried is awesome.

Had several people tell me Cafe Brazil is real good, so I went Sunday morning to the Coit & George Bush location. Waiter recommended the Migas, so I tried them.

They were tasteless, hamburger meat had a light taco type flavor.

The only thing that was good was the Coffee.

Rusty Taco (former uncle julio's founder) are some of the best damned breakfast tacos in DFW !

If you are around texoma....Little Mineral Marina has a dang good breakfast taco too.....I mean it's fantastic.

Papa's BBQ has to have some of the worst breakfast tacos in DFW by the way...

that cafe brazil has gone down hill....we bypass it for Cindy's at coit and campbell now or go to the one on 75 at Campbell.

Migas there are usualy one of my favorites. The El Gordo Crepes are awesome.

The mexican place (can't remember the name in the new shopping area on the se side of 75 and campbell has some of the best breakfast migas and a stuffed avacoados for breakfast I have ever had....

Cancun's in Waxahachie...locally owned by a great group of people. Breakfast that is great and SOOO much you will be thinking twice about wanting lunch.

El Charrito on north Austin Avenue in Georgetown ... little hole in the wall with outside walk up window where you order. The best Picadillo, Barbacoa and Carne Guisada breakfast tacos I have ever tasted.

For you mexican food lovers....If ever in San Marcos you have to go to Herberts !! I have been eatin here since 1977...

Mi Casita in Longview off mcann is legit

Taqueria El Jalsiense on Hwy 359 in San Diego, Tx is pretty good. Ouf food stop for breakfast or lunch coming home from the ranch.

San Diego's Taco Shop on story road in Irving is the best I've had in years, v ery authentic, like momma used to make!

any taqueria where you can buy menudo, lengua, carnitas, barbacoa, fresh tortillas and tamales to take home is going to be hard to beat.

Tamale House on Airport off 51'st is my latest find. 80 cent breakfast tacos were outstanding. Surprised myself when I stopped there a few days later and had a plate for lunch. Now, if I get a notion for Mex I'll drive clean across town to get their food. Careful where you park! Cops tow in a heartbeat if you park wrong. Since word is slippn out about this place parkin is an issue. Game Day? Forget it! About four tables on the front porch but no service needed or available. No perks but you won't care with these tacos!
What the H+++! I forgot! No Tamales???? Didn't miss em though.

Joe T's in Ft Worth!

Guys if you have not tried the Shell gas station on the N.W. corner of 35W & 380 in Denton your missing out. They have this Senorita back there cooking up breakfast and it is Muy Bueno!

Not your typical quick food, breakfast taco or burrito, you have different types of meat like Chorrizo & more, several types of hot sauce, cilantro, chopped onions and such, really fresh and good!

In Houston, try Los Reyes on McCarty/old Hwy 90 just outside the 610 loop. Everything there is great, but easily the best machacada(sp?) in town.

Matter of fact, Los Reyes is so good, I decided to have it for lunch. Carne Guisada with rice and beans, tortillas, chips and a lemonada.

This place is great!

Los Gueros is the name.

Mi Tierra's in San Antonio is the best !


http://www.mitierracafe.com/menus_breakfast.html

11 pages and no mention of El Tapatio in kingsville or Riviera?!

No place that I've been comes close to that place. Can't beat a huge plate special of the day for $3.25 either.

Good Co. Taqueria on Kirby in Houston has a darn good Mexican b-fast.

Austin area - Taqueria Los Jalisciences off of 290 and Manchaca Rd.

Corpus Christi - Southside Barbacoa on Weber north of Holly.

Austin ...its called Tamale House... get the migas plate with nacho cheese n a side of bacon.
A must-have for me when passing through.

+1

Chiloso in Rockwall is pretty good.

Rosita's in Pharr...great huevos divorciados and huevos rancheros. Not to mention super huevos ala Mexicanos. All tortillas are homemade. Menudo and barbacoa on the weekends.

Depends on the town I guess. My favorite is a bb with guiso, eggs mexicana, beans and pico. Try one its like breakfast and lunch together. Any one of a dozen or so shops in San Angelo do it right.

Can't remember the name it's the only hole in wall Mexican restaurant on main drag in bandera

Me and the boss ate at El Paseo on Jacksboro Hwy in Ft Worth this morning. Not bad huevos mexicana and migas, warm flour tortillas, beans, and potatoes. I'd recommend it if you are ever on the northwest side of town. Medium priced, not cheap, not high. They haven't been open for breakfast very long.

Go down to FT Worth stock yard off Main Street they have some great Mexican food places there.

Oh,and don't forget Blanco cafe in San Antonio. Two locations.

Gave Cafe Brazil another shot. Had the Brazilian Breakfast, Its an Empenada filled with Chorizo and covered in a tangy cream sauce.
It was pretty tasty for $7.99, I love their coffee, so do they $2.69 a cup?

Stub, them is the funniest looking tortillas I've ever seen. Just sayin...

Su Casa in Seguin made CNN's poll of Best Mexican Restaurants in the United States: and it came in #1.
