El Jarocho · Valley Park
Miguel and Nikky Cortez opened this Mexican store and taqueria beside their El Nopal. Breakfast burritos are served all day; the chorizo version holds scrambled eggs, rice and black beans in a flour tortilla. The barbacoa tacos use shoulder rather than brisket and come with fried whole green onions.
Southwest Diner · Ellendale
This colorful New Mexican-style diner serves a breakfast burrito and Jonathan's Famous Fiery Scramble. Other dishes include Grits on Fire with red-chile-braised pork shoulder and eggs, tamale plates and pork posole. Order the burrito for this list.
La Catrina · Southampton
This Hampton Avenue kitchen makes large burritos, thin house-made chips and salsa ground from tomatoes and fresh herbs. Its menu pairs Tex-Mex staples with street tacos and custom margaritas. Rooftop seating sits above the patio.
Arzolas Fajitas + Margaritas · Benton Park
Eddie Arzola returned to the restaurant business with his son Coby and Coby's partner Derek Fatheree. Their fajita-based menu can be served as a burrito, taco or quesadilla. Order fajitas rolled into a burrito with a margarita, and sit on the rear patio.
