Austin ChronicleMarch 23, 2013State politicos, including LBJ, have wheeled and dealed for decades over the excellent migas, huevos rancheros, chorizo, biscuits, fajitas, and enchiladas that Cisco's serves for breakfast and lunch.
cyn kMarch 12, 2013get the migas, with the tortillas on the side. take a tortilla and make a taco with migas, beans, warm salsa, and sausage. wolf down. then take a biscuit and slater with butter and honey. wolf down.
EaterMay 22, 2012Forget upscale comfort food. There's nothing upscale about Cisco's and that's why we, and our hangovers, love it. [Eater 38 Member]
Allison CuvillierMay 27, 2013The bisquits are wonderful and fluffy! Diane is a brilliant server, and everyone is nice. Try the migas taco with chorizo! The fajita beef is so tender. Reakly seems you can not go wrong!
Tortillas and biscuits are so good. I hear good things about the migas but I can't stop ordering the picadillo.
John BarbarianMarch 6, 2012Authentic and greasy, this East 6th institution cures almost any hangover. Try the Cisco Plate for a taste of everything or do the migas with a side of fajita steak if you’re into eggs.
Village VoiceMarch 3, 2011SXSW Recommendation from Sietsema-Migas is the #1 choice, but you can also get huevos rancheros w/ refried beans & a choice of tortillas or biscuits. This is his favorite restaurant in the world.
Best lunch specials. Fantastic breakfast. Great atmosphere. I love this place and come at least once a week.
Sean ParkerJanuary 26, 2014The chicken fried steak was excellent! The customer service...was excellent! Great place to have a bite to eat.
Be sure to get there early enough to get beans (they sometimes run out around noon) and order a Cisco Special with both biscuits & tortillas!
Austin American-StatesmanFebruary 21, 2012If you haven’t been here, you don’t know Austin. This place hasn’t changed much in the 50 plus years it has been open. It’s full of history and much of it is on the walls.
- John ZamoraApril 22, 2013Best Huevos Rancheros in town! Ask to have your biscuits toasted, not a joke seriously!
It's really not that great. Im sorry. The building is cool. I want to like it. I really do. The tortillas are store bought and that just doesn't cut it.
Philip JohnsonJanuary 21, 2012Rancheros with fajitas and biscuits - will die happy. Seriously the best Mexican breakfast I've ever had.
Deep GujralMarch 11, 2014Local neighborhood bar and bakery, suggest bringing cash for faster service- dave helmreichMarch 11, 2013Don't bother looking at the menu - order biscuits with honey, huevos rancheros, and strip steak for breakfast.
Paul MorejonJuly 4, 2013If you're averse to super spicy tell them to leave off the Ranchero sauce. It's a 5 alarm recipe.
Rachel W.March 12, 2015It's 2015, gay marriage may not be legal *yet* in Texas, but don't need to listen to a staff member's (possibility the owner) homophobic racially-tinged ramblings. Skip.
Order your eggs slightly more well done than you really want. Also, if you are too late, they will run out of biscuits, which is tragic.
- Migas tacos w/ bacon and ranchero on side please and thank you!
Howard LApril 18, 2021Classic hole-in-the-wall, big portions. Service wasn’t great and kitchen very slow, waited almost an hour for our order
- order the migas no sausage picadillo meat instead,biscuits not tortillas and you are set for the day ahead of you!
Christopher GriegoMarch 15, 2011Beware: fatty breakfast tacos. Dripping with butter? But definitely yummy
Don't forget the biscuits for breakfast. Try the ribeye for lunch.

"Outdoor patio and great Mexican Margaritas. Be sure to go for Happy Hour. The chips and salsa are pretty good as well."

"The small menu is packed with inventive cuisine, a combo of street-food staples and popular cantina dishes. Order a zippy cocktail (we like El Zorro), sit back, and soak up Licha's lovely, homey vibe."
