The Best Classic Austin Restaurants

"The charismatic Rudy “Cisco” Cisneros frequently volunteered to serve on grand juries and would bring tacos and biscuits to the weekly meetings. Obviously, that led to opening his restaurant. Open since 1943, Cisco’s was a longtime politico hangout, and the migas and biscuits are a classic Austin breakfast in East Austin. Now there are new owners, including Rudy’s grandson Matt Cisneros, who brought dinner service and alcohol to the restaurant." - Melanie Haupt
