Salsa Limón

Run by brother-sister duo Milo and Rosalia Ramirez, this mini-chain of taquerias had humble beginnings — food trucks, a storefront at the La Gran Plaza mall — but the company has since grown into a small empire with four locations; a fifth just opened on Magnolia Avenue.

Breakfast taco options are many: bacon, cheese, refried beans, chorizo, chicken, pastor. But pay special attention to the potato filling. It's not the usual cubed and fried blocks of potato. Rather, the potatoes are served mashed and bathed in garlic. Throw on a couple slices of avocado, and you're good. Barbacoa is another fine breakfast taco option. The meat — cow cheek — is silky smooth and absurdly rich. 

Good to know: The downtown location is open until 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and breakfast tacos are available open to close.
