Rachael Ray crowned their migas breakfast tacos as one of the best in the country. The simple eggs, avocado, pico and cheese creation is folded into a thick homemade corn tortilla and laced with bits of spicy fried tortilla for an extra crunch. You can feel good about indulging: Veracruz uses only fresh, all natural ingredients.

This establishment is so serious about their breakfast tacos, locations close at 3 p.m. daily, with breakfast served all day each weekend. Try the classic Otto, the Jess Special or Freakin' Vegan if you're feeling a health kick. These fresh-made ingredients also pair perfectly with the build-your-own menu. If you know what’s up, you'll become a Tacodeli Insider.
