"Waiting in lines for food is basically a sport in Austin. There’s often a good reason for the line—and at El Primo’s it’s the fantastic breakfast tacos. Like moths to a light, people are powerless to the migas tacos (the default version is made with deli ham, which is pretty unique to this place) and the housemade chorizo and egg. You’ll see crowds waiting patiently for their orders while traffic whizzes by on South First. What to get: Migas (with ham); Chorizo and egg " - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
"The small cart on South First is home to some of the very, very best tacos in Austin. The loaded migas is a dreamy hefty choice, and I also adore the barbacoa (add an avocado slice, you won’t regret it). And even better, El Primo is no longer cash-only, it takes ONLINE ORDERS which is a game-changer. Round out the meal with a coffee from Once Over Coffee." - Eater Staff

"Grab a cup of coffee at Bouldin Creek coffee shop Once Over, and then indulge in a steaming bean and cheese breakfast taco from the small taco cart parked out front. People are passionate about El Primo’s beans in a way that’s just on this side of obsession. The migas stuffed with ham is another good bet, as is the barbacoa. It’s open for breakfast, lunch, and early dinner. Online orders can be made in advance; in-person orders are cash-only; and there are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"South Austin’s answer for breakfast tacos is this South First food truck. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person (which is cash only); and there are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
