"This family-run Mexican/Tex-Mex diner has been serving breakfast and lunch in South Austin for over 25 years, and like moonlight towers or grackles or burnt orange, it’s just part of the city’s landscape. It’s hard to imagine Austin without it. If you go during a prime breakfast hour, especially on the weekends, there will be a wait. It’s worth it, especially for the killer fajitas or the huevos gringos—the most perfect (and unique and absurd) breakfast combo plate in which over-easy eggs get covered in queso, and then served with carne guisada, refried beans, fries, and tortillas for good measure. " - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs, raphael brion
