    Juan Don Juan- El Taco Grande
    Dora S.

    Post easter brunch!! Got my meal within 5 minutes of ordering and man are their serving sizes something to remember. Staff is energetic and nice. Only critique is their salsa is way too spicy that its not enjoyable and i eat spicy food! This was too spicy where it was painful to eat!

    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

    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.

    I can't believe I've lived in Austin for years and had never been here! It's as good as they say. Classic Tex Mex menu, huge portion sizes, and 100% delicious. There might be a small wait at busy times, but they are super efficient at getting people in and out. It's an East Austin classic for a reason!

    Huevos A La Mexicana Plate - $13.95

    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.

    Grande taco and migas taco
    Brittany U.

    I don't give out 5 stars often, but this place was amazing! We walked in and were seated immediately. The lines did get long later in the morning on Saturday closer to 9:30 AM. There's parking in the back that's free until 3 PM. My husband got the grande taco and the migas taco and I got the huevos rancheros with one egg. You have to ask for the green salsa to come with the chips, but both the red and green salsa served table top were a little spicy. The migas tacos had good melted cheese, and their grande taco was enough to make almost 5 breakfast tacos. I loved the ranchero sauce on the huevos rancheros. I would definitely order it again. Service was amazing. Our coffee and water was refilled consistently. They have it down that you can get in and out pretty quickly. They do not sit you until your whole party is there, but there is a lot of seating inside the small building. We are from out of town, but will definitely come back here again if we are ever in Austin

    Don Juan- El Taco Grande
    Rachel W.

    5 stars mostly based off of value, 4 stars for actual food. Came in to Juan In a Million for brunch and our party of 7 were able to split 4 plates. Granted, we weren't super hungry, but the value here is unparalleled! I've only ever gotten the Don Juan here, but this time we ordered a couple other plates. Of everything we ordered, I liked the Chorizo Con Huevo the most. I felt like it was flavorful and was a nice mixup from my usual. We were promptly seated outside and I appreciate that their patio is shaded and have fans blasting. Towards the end of the meal I started to get warm, naturally due to the heat, but they do a good job of keeping it as cool as possible. Service was decent, and food came out fast. Pay at the counter after your meal! Parking lot in the back is a bit small, but there's some free parking.

    Don Juan- El Taco Grande, Menudo,
    Sabrina G.

    Always great food and great service. We showed up at 9:30 for a group of 3 and were seated within 20 min or so. Don't let the line fool you! Menudo was delicious and flavorful, the Don Juan taco was huge and definitely enough for two. Do yourself a favor and grab a lemonade as well. Soo fresh!

    Don Juan- El Taco Grande via Uber Eats
    Alyssa Marie H.

    Every time I go here or order from Uber Eats, I can't help but to think of the Statue of Liberty opening ceremony from Miss Congeniality. The Don Juan breakfast taco with an extra order of Salsa is my go to. This time I also threw in a horchata! Didn't disappoint!

    The Don Juan

    Two trips for breakfast. The Don Juan taco is excellent. Best thing is to mix it up. Two extra tortillas aren't enough. The con queso breakfast is delicious. Carne guisada is perfect. The queso on the eggs spot on. The beans are full of flavor

    Limairy C.

    My husband & I stopped by because we were craving some Mexican food & had heard pretty good things about this place. My husband got the meat plate, it wasn't so good... kinda chewy. My chorizo plate was good! I enjoyed it truly, along with flour tortillas. Our server (don't recall his name) was very friendly & made our experience great! Keep it up with the friendly servers!

    breakfast Don Juan- El Taco Grande and Quesadillas
    Stephanie A.

    I LOVE THIS PLACE! favorite authentic joint on the east side with MASSIVE portions. I highly recommend the massive breakfast taco which can feed you for breakfast lunch and maybe dinner and the quesadilla with chicken!!! the service is also fast, you sit down order and within minutes your food is out pipping hot! you show up and put your name on the list, if you're late on a weekend expect a longer wait (20 mins) but nothing ever crazy!

    Small size menudo. Asked for onion and cilantro on side.

    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… Read more

    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… Read more

First, the menu needs a rewrite for content and clarity. For example, buying fajitas doesn't list guacamole and based on size, single, for two and family you get more sides of rice or beans. There's no definition of how much actual meat you get and our server couldn't provide that information beyond a rough estimate. Second, the fajitas we got of family size and for two portions for 7 were not consistently cooked. We asked for medium rare and got about 25% at that with the ones in the center at a more well done. Again, the multiple tiny sides were more obnoxious than anything as it's legit beans and rice unless you want to upcharge. The cilantro lime rice tastes like nothing so skip that and go for abuelita rice which has a hint of flavor. Overall, the butter/gravy that go on the fajitas is the real winner but again a menu where you overbuy and misunderstand (that doesn't even list extras like guacamole or a simple small queso) was beyond frustrating. I would stick to them for one to possibly get a better cook.

She noticed I was ordering dairy items on side and asked about if pesto in guacamole was ok. So astute and kind of her. Also on my friends second drink remembered she didn't want salt or her rim without even asking - Everything tasted so fresh and high quality - Brisket tacos: packed with flavor--maybe it was the wagyu meat or the black magic oil. Freshly made corn tortillas were awesome. Usually corn ones and pretty throwaway meh, but these added to the greatness of the tacos. 5 stars - Duck flautas: crispy covered in mild mole. Loved the mashed potato addition inside for some mellowness and texture. 5 stars - Guacamole: so fresh and that dollop of pesto on top was lovely. Served with crispy masa dippers were impressive almost a 8x11 page size. It was fun to crack off into pieces, but hard to stop eating it. 5 stars - Sweet potato: friend loved these long charred wedges. 4.5 stars - Cocktails were stellar. I got the Don Dario which was a play on a marg and delightful - $12 of a few drinks during lucky hour (Mon-Fri 5-6pm, Sat-Sun 3-5pm) - High energy vibes in a clean, open, tan colored space - Had their bottle water on the table in a champagne bottle which speaks to my heart Midlights: - In East Austin so have to Uber if you are staying more central - Tacos come in orders of 4. Wish it was less so we could've tried more variety. Lowlights - No food discounts for lucky hour - Didn't have time to try the choco taco which looked amaze - Large gap of time between items first few items coming out and the rest

Every one of them was great, and it was hard to stop eating. I had Joel's Happy Plate, and honestly the roasted jalapeño on top is what sold me on ordering it. The whole dish was delicious. I also tried the Kathy Valentine taco because I'm a sucker for roasted poblano peppers. It was excellent, sweet from the corn, a little spicy from the peppers, and tied together with plenty of cheesy goodness. I'd happily order it again. My son ordered the Eldorado Burrito. He's usually not a big eater, but he put away a surprising amount of it. I stole a few bites myself and completely understood why. My girlfriend had the Uchingon Bowl, and she finished the whole thing. The crispy carnitas added a ton of flavor and texture. I've also had their coffee, the guava house margarita, and even the vegan Crunchwrap on previous visits. The Crunchwrap especially exceeded my expectations. What I appreciate most about Eldorado is that the food feels real. Nothing seems overly complicated, just quality ingredients prepared well. Everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. The interior is comfortable and welcoming. We've usually had a bit of a wait to be seated, but they make it easy by offering chips, salsa, and drinks outside while you wait. The staff has always been friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the menu. Just really good food made the right way.
