Cisco's Restaurant Bakery & Bar

"Get both tortillas and biscuits with any breakfast meal from the old-school East Side restaurant. Migas and biscuits make for a good pairing. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are third-party deliveries available (DoorDash, Grubhub, Uber Eats); and there are indoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury

"With all the bars on the east side, a filling all-day breakfast spot is essential. This very classic restaurant is known for its Tex-Mex menu with migas and diner favorites like biscuits, served all day long. There are indoor dine-in services." - Erin Russell

"Cisco’s claims to be the oldest Tex-Mex restaurant in Austin, and considering it opened in 1950, we have very little doubt about the fact. There’s a small counter up front that feels like (and probably is) an old school diner bar, and an open kitchen. Behind that, is some kind of Narnia-esque hallway that leads to a series of large dining rooms that make this place infinitely bigger than it initially looks. The menu is made up mostly of Tex-Mex staples—migas and huevos rancheros by morning, fajitas and enchiladas by night—which is exactly what you want out of a place that pioneered the cuisine.

"The charismatic Rudy “Cisco” Cisneros frequently volunteered to serve on grand juries and would bring tacos and biscuits to the weekly meetings. 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 booze to the restaurant. There are indoor dine-in services." - Melanie Haupt, Erin Russell

"Soak up Austin's political history and very filling breakfast in one fell swoop at the East Sixth restaurant with the migas paired with either tortillas or biscuits (why not try both?). There are indoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell
