Ranking The 12 Absolute Best Tacos In Austin
By CRAWFORD SMITH
12. Torchy's Tacos — Trailer Park (trashy)
The Trailer Park (trashy) isn’t your traditional taco, with fried chicken doused in cheese sauce and stuffed into a tortilla. It’s ridiculous, but it does taste delicious.
11. Tyson's Tacos — crispy duck taco
The crispy duck taco at Tyson’s has savory duck meat that is offset by sweet hoisin sauce and the crisp, refreshing taste of cucumber, which is delicious on a soft flour tortilla.
10. Juan in a Million — machacado breakfast taco
The machacado taco has incredibly salty and savory dried beef that is well diluted by the taco’s eggs and fresh veggies. This taco is a great protein-packed way to start the day.
9. Joe's Bakery — breakfast taco with bacon
The breakfast taco with bacon at Joe’s has super crispy bacon with a fried chicken-like crust that, in combination with the flour tortilla, makes for an incredibly comforting taco.
8. Rosita's Al Pastor — al pastor
The al pastor taco at Rosita’s offers moist, tender pieces of pork with crispy caramelized edges with some of their secret marinade. It’s easy to eat a bunch, so be careful.
