    They're ok but no where near the best in Austin. Couple of mom-and-pop places around town but I've been away long enough that I can't remember names. Was one a mile from my house in Round Rock that I used to go to 4-5 times a week.

    Villa Arcos and Texas Tacos & BBQ on Telephone Rd (relatives of the Villa Arcos people, IIRC) are my favorites on the east side.

    Pappas BBQ, for as mediocre as their bbq is, makes a damn good breakfast taco. Just wish they'd be open for breakfast on the weekend.

    Not too many options in The Woodlands. I don't mind Torchy's. There's a new place called Taco Nation that's not bad.

    I've never been much of a breakfast taco guy, but this thread is turning me. I'm in Cypress, where do I go?

    Tornado Taco in Mo City is pretty good. Very greasy though, which is almost expected because the building is basically a shack that has a drive-thru.

    The Tacodeli on Washington Ave is enjoyable. Almost the exact opposite of Tornado Taco. Tacos taste very clean and the building is very nice.

    I like Torchy's too. I can take or leave their breakfast tacos, but I absolutely crave the Diablo Sauce.

    Titas Taco House in Humble. Houston Press best breakfast tacos 2016. I live in Atascocita and eat there about once a month. Probably the best I have had. C&D grocery in Baytown was also good but it burned down last week.

    Por que?

    If it's made properly it's delicious, if not it's a greasy nasty mess.

    That's the key. Breakfast tacos are pretty simple. You can't have a good taco of any kind without a good tortilla and good salsa.

    One of my favorites is Alamo Tamales, specifically the ham & egg with refried beans.

    This. Whenever I come back to Houston, I always stop for a bacon egg potato cheese taco at Chilosos.

    98% of the time its a greasy mess. 2% of the time, the flavors arent all that good to put up with that gritty excuse of a meat.
