Austin Chronicle

The third generation of Tamale House founder Carmen Vasquez runs this Eastside spot, which boasts more seating and a hipper vibe. The migas with cheese is a surefire hangover cure .

Men's Health Mag

When Bobby Vasquez passed away, Austin lost one of its greats as well as the phenomenal Tamale House #3. But his nieces and nephews have opened this spot, and the tamales are just as crave-able. Read more

Great breakfast tacos , like the spicy chipotle migas (add bacon ). Cute garden seating . Tasty tamales as you’d expect for dinner too. Plenty of parking .

Marushka Bland

Delicious breakfast tacos . And the Mexican iced coffee ... I usually order 2 like it's one each for my boyfriend and me, but really they are both for me. So good.

Thrillist

This spot is tucked on a patio between what used to be Graze and some railroad tracks and offers the same famous $1.25 breakfast tacos . Read more

One of the best bets for breakfast and lunch on East 6th, the restaurant also regularly hosts innovative pop-up dinners . [Eater 38 Member]

Breakfast spread was incredible. A hangovers dream spread. Friendly staff ordered for us and nailed it.

Shikha Kaiwar

Super hipster , super awesome. Two breakfast tacos for under $5 is unbeatable. To drink, get a chicha morada - super refreshing and a great start to your day!

Avery Bell

Definitely the best tamales I've had. The chicken tamales were especially good - make sure to get them with the green chile sauce .

Mallory

My favorites are the guacamole chalupa and the chicken mole tacos ! Everything is good here though and the service is phenomenal. They are long time east siders too!

Justin Henderson

Breakfast tacos ???? on the flour tortillas that will make your mouth water. Get there early as lines grow quickly!

Sandeep Madhur

Great migas plates and tacos ! Usually can find a table quickly even on weekend during busy hours.

Bijoy Goswami

Migas taco ! I’ll say it again: migas taco . And parking in the shade...unbeatable.

Joseph Mills

The tamales and breakfast tacos are great. Migas plate is also good

Fabulosomar

Great tex-mex food, if you want tamale be early at morning if not they finished

Beth S.

Updated menu and price increase with $9 chilaquiles and tacos up to $5. Ambience is no longer worth the crazy prices.

Julius Tarng

The migas is the only thing really worth getting here. Flour tortillas blah make sure to ask if they have corn

Sean Talts

Breakfast tacos ! Especially the vegan one(??)

Jeremy Carpenter

My number one go-to in Austin! Get the migas !

Entrance & patio is on 5th street, with a good view of some pretty badass graffiti .

Carlos Tello

Tamales were terrible little meat and full of very salty masa which I couldn’t even eat. Chips and queso cheese had grainy texture. Guac tasted like crayons. (Check google reviews)

Kate Kniejski

Bean and cheese breakfast tacos were just okay. Will return to eat tamales !

Stephanie Moreno

Phone your order in and go to the head of the line to pick up and pay.

Sam Trevino

Best breakfast tacos in town , great staff .

Get the vase of mimosas . :)

This place has no regard for people with food allergies. If someone requests corn instead of flour tortillas because of an allergy they should comply.

Zachary Curtis

Patio is authentic
