Austin’s Juan in a Million came from the very humblest of beginnings.
TripAdvisor/Sammy P Started by two school teachers, Opened in 1980 by two school teachers, Juan and Myrna Meza, the unassuming eatery has grown into a household name in the Capital City - and beyond.
The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and everyone who steps inside is made to feel like part of the family.
TripAdvisor/misopiso88 In fact, Juan makes it a point to shake hands with each customer who walks through the front door. It’s that emphasis on community connections that truly sets Juan in a Million apart from other Mexican restaurants in town.
In addition to the welcoming ambiance, another thing that elevates the restaurant to legendary status is the breakfast tacos.
TripAdvisor/Sammy P There are over a dozen different kinds on the menu, with fillings ranging from potato and egg to chorizo to migas.
For those who are especially ravenous, consider trying the iconic “Don Juan El Taco Grande.”
TripAdvisor/Paolo M This behemoth is simply massive, featuring potato, egg, bacon, and cheese all wrapped up in three warm tortillas.
Other breakfast items include migas, Huevos Rancheros, scrambled eggs with chorizo, and more.
TripAdvisor/Shane94 We recommend trying at least one breakfast taco, however - they’re way too delicious to pass up.
