- Cisco’s Restaurant in Austin, Texas, is said to have made Tex-Mex famous. Since the 1950s, it has served classic dishes like migas and huevos rancheros, along with other delicious Tex-Mex staples like tacos and enchiladas. Insider’s Joe Avella stopped by to see how it has remained a popular haunt in the rapidly changing city of Austin, and, of course, he tried some of Cisco’s famous food.

Austin’s Most Legendary Tex-Mex | Legendary Eats
"Sunny side up eggs"
Proceeds to flip eggs
"it also became a spot for celebrities .. like Willie Nelson..."
Well, Willie lives in Austin, so i freaking hope he is a regular there!
If Willie Nelson goes, I go! =)
Yea a lot of celebrities go, like me I'm very famous with my children lol
@@heythere3780
Haha, that my friend made my day
Only gringos that have No clue love Cisco’s!!! About 5 tex-mex restaurants within a mile that are authentic Tex-mex. Joes Bakery, Juan and a Million & Angies say hello!!
Growing up down the street from Cisco’s. I never ate there. It was mainly known as a place where the white people/non locals ate.
where's the good places to eat then?
@@lxmnsm8175 most of these insider "greatest places" is all white bread tourist places tbh
tommy lafferty facts bro👀😂
Are you ready for the answer? In any town if you want great food you have to go the hood. A place that is not advertised because it does not have curb appeal. You have to find a place that has a 90 y/o grandma in the back cooking and the Entire restaurant is ran by the family.
@@lxmnsm8175 joes.
I'll tell y'all as a native Austinite, you can skip this place lol
Looks like shit.lol
Why? Does it taste bad?
Where do you recommend, chuys 🤣
It's really hard to please everyone, must be in the minority
@@addison7624 It looks OK. For breakfast tacos I'd recommend any of the authentic holes in the wall. If there's a gathering of beat up food trucks with lights and stuff, or Guero's. There's a spot right next to a tire shop I forget the name of. Honey Ham in Westlake. It's too numerous to count tbh.
As a long-time Austinite, I can guarantee you that Cisco’s is anything BUT any type of “staple” in this city. Where he got that is beyond me.
It really depends on your circle. I'm a 3rd generation Central Texan. There is a ton of old Austin history at Cisco's. Sit at one of the back tables, and there are tons of politician and Longhorn player and coach pics. Pics of them eating there or letters they wrote later on. It is an icon. Not as famous as Matt's or Juan In A Million. It's almost like The Hoffbrau Steakhouse on 6th St. People who have lived here for about 10-15 years may have never heard of it. But it has a very loyal customer base. I think it's been here since at least the 50's. One place I miss that was here forever that was not widely known was "Arkies". The nicest old ladies worked there. Some of the best conversations with the old timers at the bar.
Lies again? Tray Return
I'm not talking as a Texan, which I am... nor as a TexMex Lover... which I am... I'm talking as a businessman... as an entrepreneur... If you have people waiting 30 minutes to taste what you have to offer... then you are an IDIOT!!
Wichita Kansas has an amazing Tex-Mex restaurant called El patio. It’s been around since like 1952 and it is so good whenever I’m in Wichita when I travel when I go through there I always stop and get the huevos rancheros it is fantastic
0:40 the way he said bangin tho
Lived in Austin 10 years never been here but now I gotta check it out
Lol been there like twice I think it might have been more popular when my dad grew up.
Just started On a diet but watching this😭😭😭😭. U know I’m hungry 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Food insider needs to teach this guy how to eat at a table or restaurant
I was thinking the same as I watched.
I wouldn't mind replacing him as the host :)
Rockstar Eater Same!
chill and let the man eat
Would be amazing then
The heart attack I'm going to get from all this food must be the revenge for the Alamo! 😜
@alphant1 lol hey round is a shape, sheeeeesh!
alphant1 Geez that was uncalled for
@@the1grove So was the Alamo joke to some.
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Delicious food makes me singing! LALalalala
Makes Rockstar Eater hungry and happy :)
The people of Joe’s Bakery on E 7th would like to have a word with you.
Joes bakery God tier food. glad my family been going there for decades.
Every menu is very good
Wow .... all the food looks delicious, would love to try it !!! 🤤🤤🤤
Oh man taking one bite from 6 dishes so tough
“WAYvos ranchArrows”
🤔
i love my hispanic ppl 💕💝💗💖💞💓💘
Yum food
I needa try some of this stuff
I love Austin but San Antonio is home of the best tex-mex on the planet
Try the Rio Grande Valley you'll change your mind, I guarantee it.
San Antonio is probably better but Austin does well
Oh I really need to travel and try everything 😩😩
Me too. We should be travel buddies :)
That's great but if you want the most iconic Tex-Mex you're in the wrong city, need to go to San Antonio
One hundred 🧨🧨🧨
I'm surprised this place got your attention. This place looks average so I'm guessing it must taste really good. You couldn't get me to go with just the pics of food.
😋😋😋😋😋😊😊
I live in Michigan and have never ever ate a Skirt Steak Fajita with a knife and fork....Interesting
That look so good
It makes my face lit!
I wouldn't ask it based on how it looks.
Wow
=)
Anyone here had Tex Mex food before?
What would be some good stuff to order?
@alphant1 =)
alphant1 shut up
Probably not order would be a good thing 😂🤢🤮
I actually live I Austin so here’s my take instead of being like any of these other idiots in your reply thread. Definitely go for enchiladas and just about any type of taco you can get.
I'm from texas. Huevos rancheros definitely.
Food Insider can you do a video of going to Hershey's Chocolate World and touring the place around as well as trying the treats.
I wouldn't mind doing that =)
Deliciousssssssssssssssssssss
The texmex version of migas is reaaally different from the mexican version
They use tortillas chips, instead of real corn tortillas like at home!
They are white mexicans
😍😍😍😍😍
Dem beans look straight outta a can.
How does it taste? I wanna try !
Desde cuando migas con huevo es algo especial? Digo, sabe rico pero en Mexico lo hacemos bastante jajajaja
All right. So the white guy explaining what Tex-Mex is kind of hurt my brain because he was doing his best not to give the great Mexican people that credit. So everybody knows that from Texas on back is actually Mexico. I'm sure everybody knows about the Mexican-American War. Okay, so when that imaginary line moved? South those Mexican stay right there. Texas is over 70% Latin. Therefore, What happened is? Europeans, white Europeans, came in to a clan took culture monetize it capitalized offer it and you get the guy in a blue shirt.
To be fair, he doesn't give credit to white people either
"Gotta try the fajita steak." wut
I'd eat there 6 days a week.... hell yeah!
I'm with you, bro.
NOOOO! you put the egg and some of the sauce on the biscuit and go to town!!!
Too bad this guy didn't make his way to where the real Tex-Mex food was birthed: the Rio Grande Valley.
Anything you get up here is bland, basically, a fusion of foods.
But I put up with it.
@array s you're an idiot for sure. Tex Mex has it's roots straight from the cowboy range and eventually made it's way into the kitchens of the field hand.
AMEN BRO!!
To be honest it looks kind of generic but it’s probably decent
Hi
LMAO he's never seen migas before. The tortilla is the main part
Enchiladas, huevos rancheros y migas this all are mexican dishes. 🤭
Early squad!
This food looks like it is an acquired taste, and I am being polite.
It doesn’t Look appetizing 👀
I’m sure it taste good, but if I was just coming in and waiting for my food my first impression would be “wtf”
iim sure its a tasty comforting food,but dishes dont look aesthetically pleasing
Gordon Ramsay is Shakinggg
The guy literally didn’t put anything inside that tortilla it was all on the plate
Huevos rancheros aren’t Tex mex
It just looks like an “upscale” Taco Bell
It's not the most icon Tex-Mex restaurant in the country!
Can someone explain what is TEX MEX food
No offence but when I encounter something that looks like that, I avoid stepping on it.
I watched a delicious video
"I have an idea, why don't we sell our vomit?"
Umm... *coughs* something we stole from the valley *coughs*
That’s not Tex mex only. You can see it in Mexico and not only there you can see it in Carolina-Mexican also try it. Tex food is not Tex it’s southern food that you can find it all over the southern states. The only reason is called Tex mex is because it’s mix with southern food and Mexican food. The original Mexican food you can find in the states is California, real authentic Mexican food that tast just like if your in Mexico.
I was wondering why would every restaurant in USA uses single use plates to serve food to their costumers? Such a waste 😩
syamsul a um have you ever been to the US? Because that’s a false statement
I don't think I've ever been to an eat in restaurant with single use plates, and I'm from the U.S.
YURRRRRRR FIRST
Yeah if that salsa is served cold NOPE. NOT MEXICAN AT ALL. It's all paste too.
This looks like pretty average if not not so high quality tex mex
I don't mean to be rude, but all I saw were plates covered in sauces and a few cuts of meat here and there. Doesn't look fulfilling. But it looks like it's delicious tho, if not only for their portion sizes.
It’s basically an English breakfast with tortillas
I share fried chicken everyday
Austin is about the least Hispanic city in Texas though. Mostly whites there
This guys as interesting as a fart
😆⚡
Why is this in my recommended...
All Russian News because RUclips knows that you’re hungry lol
Am I in your recommended tabs?
Tex mex food looks nasty and I'm Mexican from Cali tho so maybe that's why I think that
There are way better places to eat in Austin. This is poor representation for Austin even for the whole state of Texas
It's just a lot of brown mess on a plate. The food looks seriously unappealing.
True
Wonder how tex mex would look like in an upscale restaurant
@@RockstarEater There's no such thing. Sensible people have no desire to eat brown stuff wrapped in tortilla diapers.
Try New Mexican food.
ladies and gentelmen, the beta male.
I love white people mexican food.
Lol just go to Cali it’s way better
Nooooooo! Those are not migas. And there are way better places to eat in Austin. Why there??
Their is no such thing as good Tex Mex it’s all disgusting, if you want Mexican food just go to a real authentic Mexican restaurant.
All Mexican food just a word to describe it texmex. Dont even like their music, which is Mexican music with country twang swing
Any Sanantonio Mexican restaurant has way better looking and probably tastier food than this place...I'm just saying.
This white boy 🙄
everything looks watery af and the tacos look like taco bell.
The the guy eating needs better training or something 😂
Damn, y’all got some of the worst hosts for a show I’ve seen.
Huevos Rancheros is not Tex mex 🙄🙄🙄
Taco bell type tacos are not TexMex , come to San Antonio and eat real puffy taco .
No thanks, I don't want to eat someone's else vomit.
Kinda look like plates of vomit.
Italian food is vomit sooo
@@imrickjamesbitch6363 LOL. That's funny. Cope.
You really need a better thumbnail for this. This one kinda looks like someone is playing with barf. 🤢
It doesn’t look very appetizing
Seems like vomit to me
Huinaa , we russians make better food, looks awfull
Edge Boom yeah it looks so awful they have lines of people waiting outside the door to come eat....I doubt you’ve tasted anything like it
PLEASE 👏 STOP 👏 ONLY 👏 GOING 👏 TO 👏 MEXICAN 👏 AND 👏 BBQ 👏 RESTAURANTS 👏 WHEN 👏 YOU 👏 VISIT 👏 TEXAS 👏
Tex Mex ain't got anything on traditional Mexican food.
