Don Juan- El Taco Grande
Ashley G.

I just love Juan in a Million! Super fast service, great food, and amazing portion sizes. You can pop in for a quick meal or take your time and enjoy it. The atmosphere is super casual, and the staff is always so friendly. I've only been for breakfast so far, but I'm dying to come back and try their lunch and dinner items.

Must visit in Austin! Juan in a million was recommended by a friend, our flight landed early and we drove there for breakfast and let me tell you, we went back every single day. Carne guisada tacos are a MUST! Their chips are the most fresh crunchiest things I've ever had, and their hot sauce once of a kind! I didnt care for the bean and cheese taco, I had the egg and potato taco and it made all the difference. I love the authenticity and amazing service we got at this place! If you go mid day prepare to wait. Your beat bet is to call ahead and do a pick up and it usually takes 15 minutes. Can't wait to be back!

This will always be one of my favorites. I feel like I grew up here. Thirty-five-plus years later, whenever I order something other than the migas, someone comments, "Not your usual today?" This isn't meant to be a vanity post. It's a reminder that for many of us, a restaurant becomes more than just a place to eat. It becomes a second home, a connection to our childhood, or a taste that instantly brings back memories. The people at Juan in a Million have always made me feel like family, and I'm grateful that so many of them are still there after all these years. Places like this aren't just restaurants. They're part of the fabric of our lives.

It definitely is Juan in a Million! Queso was really, really good. The cheese enchiladas, rice and beans are in my top 3 best for sure, living in Houston with so many great places, this says a lot. This rice was delicious, full of flavor, soft and fluffy. Huevos Mexicanos was nice, served with fresh corn tortillas. Chicken quesadillas were extra cheesy. Don't miss out on this place!! Bonus points for Bevo on all dishes!! #hookem

Don Juan- El Taco Grande

It's time to update Juan of my favourite reviews I've written. Unfortunately, this Juan will not be as favourable. My previous review was of my experience eating their breakfast tacos at a catered event, but this time I came to dine in with my friends. The service was very slow. Our food came in a reasonable time, but the servers just took so long every time to come over. Also, they were very insistent that everyone in our party be present to be seated. They led us to a back room that had a lot of empty tables, so we were baffled by how strict they were. I got the Don Juan El Taco Grande, which is a huge breakfast taco. The server recommended getting two extra tortillas, and I'm glad I did because you could fill all three tortillas and more. After tax and tip, my portion ended up being $12. It was an average breakfast taco, and the tortillas were a little bit hard.

We did it, Juan in a Million. Gotta say everyone was happy. Gringo Tex-Mex was the agenda here and Juan delivered. Chips and Salsa on point, and that is has to be right. Tacos, Enchiladas were good and be sure to get a chile toreado on the side, they are not on the menu but every good mex spot has them. We walked in and got seated quickly but I can see it could be a bit longer with a wait. The tables flip quickly so hang around. The lunch menu specials on the board were inviting and priced in the below $15 range.

Don Juan El Taco Grande

The Don Juan El Taco Grande is the main reason I keep coming back. It's massive, and sometimes the staff will offer an extra tortilla so you can turn it into a second taco, which makes it feel like a great value. Every component works well together, from the potatoes and bacon to the eggs and grated cheese. It's filling, satisfying, and consistently hits the spot. The staff are also quick and attentive, which makes the experience even better. I've tried the fajitas as well, but they were just okay and not something I'd go out of my way to order again. Overall, this is still a solid 4/5 spot for me, especially if you're coming for the Don Juan.

Our family had a short weekend trip to Austin and breakfast tacos was high on our priority list. I am so glad that they open early at 7 am. We tried the Don Juan el taco grande, chorizo and egg breakfast taco, and migas, egg, and cheese breakfast taco. The portions are generous and it was more than enough for the four of us. My husband and I really enjoyed the migas breakfast taco whereas my girls loved the Don Juan el taco grande. There was something for everybody!

Austin breakfast stop you gotta try.
Natalie S.

Juan in a Million is the kind of Austin spot that makes you understand why everyone loves Austin. I got the Don Juan and I don't remember the last time I had a breakfast combo that felt that perfect. It's hearty, and hits every single breakfast craving at once. I didn't even get a picture because it was too good to pause. The service was absolutely incredible, especially considering they were packed. I will be back the very first morning the day I come back to Austin! If you're in Austin and like breakfast go get the Don Juan!

Barbacoa, Chorizo, egg and cheese tacos
Rolando N.

Solid breakfast tacos. The barbacoa taco was very good. Moist and flavorful. The chorizo, egg and cheese taco was excellent. Service was fast and friendly.

This is probably the most popular Mexican restaurant in Austin. There usually a waiting line especially on the weekend. Burrito are huge and good value. Breakfast is pretty good, it is hearty, fresh tortilla goes well with the meal. It would be better if they have chilaquiles. For a popular Mexican restaurant, it is strange that they don't offer it.

Huevos A La Mexicana Plate - $13.95
Michelle E.

Overall, Juan In A Million is a decent option for breakfast, brunch, or lunch when you're craving Mexican food. It isn't going to blow you away but you can order the Don Juan El Taco Grande with some extra tortillas and have a super affordable meal! FAST FACTS: * Parking: there's some parking around the building and a lot next door * Online ordering: available on their website * Delivery: available on their website * Daily specials Monday through Friday * Family owned for over 45 years... great option for supporting local restaurants PRICING - The total was $53.25 after tax ($4.05) but before tip for: - Coffee: $3.25 (ordered 2 but only charged for 1) - Don Juan El Taco Grande: $8.75 - 4 extra tortillas: $1.00 ($0.25 each) - Huevos A La Mexicana Plate: $13.95 - Con Queso Breakfast Plate: $14.75 - Chile Con Queso (8 oz): $7.50 - Complimentary chips and salsa SERVICE - Fantastic! We arrived around 11:30 am on a Saturday and were seated after about a 5 minute wait. Several servers took care of us by refilling our waters and coffees but Felix was our main server... he took our order shortly after getting seated and our food came out quickly. DON JUAN EL TACO GRANDE (8/10) - Best deal on the menu! Order some extra tortillas because it's a MASSIVE portion. It's a little dry but you can add the complimentary salsa on top. This will always be my go-to because it's super filling for the price! HUEVOS A LA MEXICANA PLATE (7/10) - The eggs come scrambled with jalapeños, tomatoes, and onions but definitely needed some seasoning. The diced potatoes needed salt as well and are more "wet" than crispy. You can choose corn or flour tortillas for the side (I was given 3 corn tortillas instead of 2). CON QUESO BREAKFAST PLATE (8/10) - Super saucy and delicious! Again, the diced potatoes needed salt and weren't crispy but the queso was the perfect consistency and the carne guisada was incredibly tender. You can choose corn or flour tortillas for the side but I recommend ordering extra to soak up the extra queso. CHILE CON QUESO (6/10) - The taste and consistency is great but $7.50 for a small cup seems pricey considering the Don Juan El Taco Grande is only $8.75. I wouldn't order this again. The tortillas are nothing special which is a little disappointing but you get decent portions of food and great service. I'd recommend Juan In a Million to anyone in the area but wouldn't tell people to go out of their way to try it.

Ask the Community - Juan In A Million

What kind of cheese do y'all use?

Do they have parking?

Yes, and you can also park in the lot next door

Do they serve corn tortillas?

Hi Cristal, yes they do serve corn tortillas! They'll ask for your preference between corn and flour when taking your order :).

Do they have music?

I don't remember music being played but I could be wrong. I wasn't paying attention

Do they use soy in their food? Friend has an allergy but we'd really like to eat here

I don't believe so. All natural ingredients. But you can mention it and they will definitely accommodate your needs.

Can they accommodate large groups? Edit: group size 19...

Define "large"? But I'd think they could just fine - they have their main room then two addon spaces attached that could host a lot. I'd call and ask for reserving the spaces.

Are the totillas hand made at the location?

No, they are not hand made. There are a few restaurants that make their tortillas on-site (manually or mechanically assisted), however. For instance, Chuy's and Serranos for a family dine-in joints and Taco Cabana as a fast-casual joint to name a… 

Will they play the game with sound? I heard they don't have audio

No. It's not a sports bar. TV is always on mute.

Is the restaurant Dog friendly?

Don't think so, since you had to go thru the inside of the restaurant to get to the patio. Tight space that may not be ideal for dawgs.

Do they take to go orders?

Yes!

What time should I get there on a Sunday morning? Monday morning?

I think the earlier the better especially on Sunday. The line does move fast but the wait is outside I cant imagine you would ever have to wait more than 30 minutes at peak…

They have a cute indoor seating area along with a rooftop patio, which is really cute especially when the weather gets great. I got a corn poblano soup and I have to say that was delicious. I got the small cup and next time I go back I will definitely get the whole bowl cause that was amazing. I did go during brunch hours so I got two tacos. One of them was the Migos taco, which was delicious. I love that the tortilla chips and they were nice and crunchy still and not soggy. I also got a taco called the Cherrywood, which had bacon cheese, egg, potato, and avocado, and it was delicious. I love that their tortillas are homemade and they're not the cheap American puffy ones. They also give you complementary chips and salsa and both salsa were delicious. I literally combine both of them in my tacos. They do have some great drinks. One of them is the Highlander margarita which is really nice and smooth and they use patron silver. They also had another margarita that I saw a lot of people ordering and it was an avocado one, and everybody kept raving about it. They definitely have a good mix of cocktails and then anything in general that you would want.

We stopped by at 11:45 am and surprisingly there were plenty of parking spots around the restaurant. We had a great waiter who was attentive and patient with us. We ordered a mimosa carafe for the group. Unfortunately, I think they need a better way of serving these mimosas because the sparkling wine in the carafe gets immediately warm due to not being placed on ice. We were drinking lukewarm mimosas. Please rethink this El Alma, you need buckets to keep the wine and juice cold! Anyways, we received complimentary chips and salsa while we waited for our food. I ordered the breakfast enchiladas which were delicious. They had egg in them, and honestly never thought this existed but happy I found it! Wish the side of beans it came with was bigger. The rest of our group enjoyed their foods as well. There's rooftop seating which was lovely BUT there's a huge oak tree above that continuously drops leaves and debris constantly. Our drinks had floating bits and it just kept falling. I recommend some umbrellas. Our waiter was kind enough to let us move when a table opened up under the canopy. Great food, super cool restaurant but some operational issues that keep it to a 4 and not a 5.

Arriba Abajo as you walked in just gave me all the vibes of a happening place when you want to hang out with friends and have a great time. We ordered the braised ribs rolled tacos for appetizers. It was so fresh and kicking' with all kinds of flavors. I wish I had ordered another one. The avocado sauce layered on the bottom was just enough to keep wanting more. For lunch I ordered the Carneasada Fajitas with chimichurri and my husband ordered the Carneasada Taqueria. With my fajitas came a side of frijoles, green rice & flour tortillas. Corn flour was the other option. Both meals came in pipin' hot & the smell coming from both was very aromatic, zesty & spice. Amazing taste, flavors, just the right amount of marinade on the Carneasada with a hint of lime. It was so delicious while enjoying the ambiance. Our server was a delight and took very good care of us.

We were happy to accommodate, but then the service was noticeably slow (both for drinks and for food). Price points were high (but, I suppose not unexpected for a hotel restaurant). The spot we were in just felt like limbo between guests enjoying the pool and people inside enjoying A/C and good music. May give it another shot down the road.

ATX Cocina is a whole vibe! It's modern, minimalistic in design and sleek in styling. Also, they have dining on the patio, where you have a nice view of Lady Bird Lake. Bad Bunny was playing the background, which created a lovely ambiance. We ordered drinks, an appetizer, entrees and a side. We first ordered the guacamole and tortilla chips. The tortilla chips tasted homemade and guac was quite tasty with jalapeno slices as a garnish. My friend ordered the Sandia cocktail comprised of Lalo, Ancho Reyes, watermelon, lime, and chamoy. I ordered the Frida Kahlo including Don Fulano Blanco, Jalisco 1562, guava, blood orange, lime, black lava Ssalt. Note to self: Don't touch the black lava salt because it rubs off on your hands. She ordered the filete de lomo black angus tenderloin for her entree with blistered shishitos, pipian verde, cebollas, and salsa seca. I ordered the crab relleno which was stuffed with smoked honey cornbread anaheim, jumbo lump blue crab, charred tomatillo sugo, and tamarind. The brussels sprouts side was quite different with crumbled cheese and sliced peppers...I suppose that's where the modern part kicked in. In addition, Armando, our server, was attentive and frequently came to our table to check on us. He also gave an overview of the menu before we made our selections.

Somehow I'd never been despite living so close, so I was excited to finally check it off my list. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, and their famous foyer is just as pretty in person as everyone says. I came with a friend, and we grabbed seats at the bar first while waiting, but I definitely recommend making reservations because this place is BUSY, even on a weeknight. Parking can also be a bit of a struggle since they have a pretty small lot. I had to make a few laps before I finally found a spot, so definitely give yourself a little extra time. They do offer valet, and I believe you may also be able to park in the lot next door after hours since it's their sister restaurant, but don't quote me on that haha. Their margaritas are also really good and definitely on the stronger side, so they were a great way to start the meal. The staff here was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the night. They even walked us to our table and later showed me where the bathroom was, which I thought was a really nice touch. As for the food, it definitely lives up to the hype. It's on the pricier side, but everything tasted incredibly fresh and was well worth it. We ordered the enchiladas, which were delicious, and the shrimp was probably my favorite part of the meal because it was so fresh and perfectly cooked. I can definitely see why this restaurant has been around for so long and has such a loyal following. It took me way too long to finally come here, but I'll definitely be back. One thing I'm noticing as we do these is that you often write reviews that are genuinely useful--not just "food good/bad." You include things like reservations, parking, what to order, or where to sit. I think we should keep leaning into that because it feels very authentic to your style and makes your reviews stand out.
