Breakfast, whenever you want it. ☀️ Served all day at El Malo. 🌮 Try our Austin-style BREAKFAST TACO — house-made Sonoran flour tortilla, scrambled eggs, fresh salsa, crispy potatoes and melted cheese.
🌯 Charlotte’s best BREAKFAST BURRITO — potatoes, eggs, refried beans, Monterey cheese, pico, crema and guac. 🍲 OR the Breakfast Bowl — everything you love in the burrito just in a bowl instead!
Different kitchens, one approach. 🇲🇽 @eatmalpan , @elmalogram , and @barhermanita may serve different menus, but the foundation stays the same.
From nixtamalization and house-ground corn to flour tortillas made with precision and care, every step is intentional. The formats shift, the menus evolve, but the attention to detail stays consistent. Hear owner, Andre Lomeli, share his approach.
No overthinking it. It’s Taco Tuesday. 🌮 $1 off all tacos = an easy decision. So what’s the move: birria, pastor, or trying something new? Drop it below👇🏽
STREET TACOS, done right. Heirloom corn tortillas made fresh, or upgrade any taco to a gringa with our Sonoran-style flour tortilla + melted cheese.
📍 Tuesdays only at @barhermanita (dine-in required)
Caught mid-shift, behind the line, and still finding time to have fun. Behind every plate at @elmalogram is a crew that keeps it moving, keeps it fresh, and keeps it real.
📍Plaza Midwood
Fresh off the trompo, all weekend long. 🔥 Marinated pork, slow roasted and stacked high, carved to order with crispy edges and a juicy center.
📍 Spinning after 5PM on Fridays, and all day Saturday and Sunday in Plaza Midwood.
Hand-cut fries. Never frozen. Made fresh, every time. 🍟 The California Burrito—stacked with carne asada, crispy fries, guacamole, pico de gallo, salsa, and plenty of cheese, all wrapped in a Sonoran-style flour tortilla. Born in San Diego in the ’80s, built for right now.
