Juan in a Million

"Juan in a Million is most famous for the Don Juan, which is basically a small mountain of potatoes, bacon, eggs, and cheese, with a side of tortillas. We’ve managed to form two or three solid-sized breakfast tacos out of it without even making a dent in the thing. Novelty foods usually disappoint, but the breakfast tacos here actually taste good—it’s a rare crossover where value meets quality. But the best part about it all might be the giant handshake you’ll get from Juan himself, who’s usually roaming about and making everyone in the restaurant feel like part of the family. photo credit: Nicolai McCrary" - Nicolai McCrary

"Filled with a massive mix of eggs, bacon, potatoes, and cheese, the famous Don Juan breakfast taco at Juan in a Million costs just $8 — meaning splurging on the necessary extra side of tortillas won’t break the bank. Juan in a Million also features daily specials for $13, including a two-enchilada plate served with rice, beans, tortillas, and tea on Mondays and Thursdays, and a flautas platter on Tuesdays and Fridays. Don’t forget to factor in a tip for your server. Takeout orders can be placed online and there is indoor and outdoor seating." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury

"If you don’t know, now you know—Juan is, and always will be an Austin favorite for weekday hangover cures. The Don Juan is what this place is known for, but if you’re not quite ready to tackle what is probably the world’s largest breakfast taco, everything is good here—particularly the stuff that contains chorizo. If you haven’t eaten breakfast here, then you haven’t partaken in one of Austin’s greatest pastimes." - raphael brion, nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs

"Those people waiting in the Holly restaurant’s line will likely be cranky (though it does move fast), as the restaurant is home to the hangover cure of many. The Don Juan is a massive potato, egg, bacon, and cheese concoction served on a warm tortilla. Some say that the filling could make two or three tacos, but these people don’t understand that everything’s bigger in Texas. There are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Erin Russell
