Taco Salad
Caleb H.

An institution! Decided to mix it up today by trying the taco salad. The highlight is the crispy shell bowl which is fun to tear apart along the way. I added guac which seemed pretty essential especially as I skipped the ranch. Maybe not the healthiest salad considering the cheese, but I felt like it was a good option for a work lunch.

When in Rome do what Romans do.. When in Austin do what Austin's do and go eat at Juan in a Million. My buddy highly recommend so this was our first stop off the plane. Food was excellent, the breakfast burrito was delicious and the portions will not disappoint. The service is what really got my attention it was second to none. There's plenty of sitting room, decent parking. The place is busy but they can turn out the food fast. I got to meet Juan and shake his hand, he actually gave me a half of a man hug and it made my day. There is a wall of some pretty famous people he has served over the years and I thought that was pretty cool too. Definitely check this place out. Check out the hours before you go I know they do close at 3 pm.

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
Carrie M.

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.

Chile Toreado
Steve B.

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.

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!

Don Juan El Taco Grande
Lisa N.

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.

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.

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…

The chicken was cooked to perfection but that was the only thing we truly enjoyed. The biscuit was seemingly made in a sheet and cut. Even when we ordered a side it was split in half, so you never really got that satisfying bite of biscuit with the flaky top. Everything we had (the badass bacon and eggs, brisket breakfast sandwich, chicken sandwich, chicken and biscuit sandwich, and biscuits and gravy) were okay but not super. I was disappointed in the gravy which was just a little odd. The side of red potatoes was interesting but not our favorite. No hate to the place, just not at all what I was expecting. The service and /decor were great. The food was just not to our taste.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

There is a QR code that you're required to use to join the waitlist/queue, but this is not clearly communicated on their website. You essentially have to arrive at the restaurant and figure it out once you're there. For a restaurant that is known for having long waits and high traffic, I feel like this information should be clearly stated online so people can plan accordingly. Once I joined the queue, I was number 43 and ended up waiting about an hour and a half before being seated. I understand that popular restaurants can have long wait times, but the lack of transparency about how the process works made the experience more frustrating than it needed to be. Once inside, the ambiance was actually quite quaint and charming. That said, considering how much traffic this restaurant gets, I was surprised by how limited the space is. I honestly think expanding the property would make a huge difference, although I understand that may not be entirely within their control. One thing I will give them major credit for is the menu. Online, the selection makes it look somewhat limited, but once you're there, they actually have 50+ food options, so there is plenty to choose from. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, my entrée was disappointing. I ordered a shredded beef taco with salsa and substituted a side salad. The beef was extremely tender, but unfortunately, it was also very dry. The salad was another disappointment because the vinaigrette was honestly not good. I don't think I've ever had a vinaigrette that I actively disliked until this meal. Thankfully, my fiancé had a much better experience. He ordered an enchilada and said it was one of the top five enchiladas he's ever had, so clearly there are some standout dishes on the menu. That definitely made me curious about trying something different if I ever return. I also really enjoyed that they offer hibiscus tea. I was very happy to see it on the menu, although I personally think it would be better served on its own rather than incorporated into one of their mixed drinks. The drink itself was just okay, but the hibiscus flavor was great. Overall, I can see why this place has become an Austin staple, but I think the experience could be improved significantly by making the waitlist process much clearer online and by improving the consistency of some of the food. The menu has a lot of potential, and clearly, some dishes are excellent! Unfortunately, mine just wasn't one of them.

Service, great. Magmud, delicious…read more Tropical turkey tacos, terrible. I was expecting grilled or BBQ turkey, it was diced sandwich meat in a tortilla. Great vibe and staff, but I will not be ordering tacos here again.

Parking is somewhat limited in the parking lot, however there's plenty of street parking just south on College and Oltorf. The griddle cakes were GIANT. I typically have no problem conquering any breakfast plate but this....well, everything is bigger in Texas as they say. If you're a solo traveler, order a single and ask about their seasonal. They had a baked apple seasonal option while I was there and it was amazing. Traditional breakfasts are also delicious and far more manageable. Coffee was never ending and flavorful, not "diner coffee". I'll gladly come back the next time I'm in town.

This was not your typical bear claw as it was not eye-squinting sweet but bursting with almond flavoring primarily in the center. It was almost like a crescendo in a symphony when you got to the center of the bear claw. My latte was flavorful in a subtle way with the sesame vanilla permeating throughout the latte. It is important to note that they make their own pastries and tacos each day. The pastries are a bit pricey costing more than my latte. The coffee shop has floor to ceiling windows on two sides with one of the windows opening into a courtyard with additional seating. The beautifully titled coffee bar immediately grabs your attention. In addition, service was quick and efficient. I was in and out the coffee shop within 10 minutes. I parked right in front of the coffee shop as it was early before the meters started to tick.
