I need a solid breakfast taco spot. Not a sit-down brunch place charging $16 for two tacos on a fancy plate. I want a no-frills spot where the tortillas are fresh, the salsa has actual heat, and I can eat for under $10.
Bonus points if they're open early. I need tacos at 6:30am before work, not at 10am like every brunch place.
Drop your spot. Be specific about what to order.
Chorizo and egg with a little bit of potato mixed in. Squeeze of lime. That's the one.
If the spot doesn't have a line of construction workers at 6am it's probably not that good. That's my filter.
Find a place that makes their tortillas in house. That's the only criteria that matters. Everything else follows.
Bacon egg and cheese on flour with green salsa. That's the order. Every time. Don't overthink it.
Unpopular opinion: corn tortilla breakfast tacos are superior. Flour gets soggy too fast if you're taking them to go.
