The Voting Academy Says
“One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had, and I tell everyone who visits. The atmosphere is bright and welcoming.”
“Chicken enchilada with verde sauce and an over-easy egg.”
“Their original location on Frankfort Avenue, before it expanded, could only seat like 20 people, and now they have several locations. The huevos rancheros and tres leches pancakes are staples, but my go-to is the Burrito de Mama with a side of chilaquiles.”
We asked Con Huevos to share something that says something essential about them…
“This is one of our murals. We wanted Frida Kahlo holding an alebrije rooster to celebrate the fierce spirit of women and minorities. Frida symbolizes resilience and maternal strength — like a mother who has your back. The rooster embodies the vibrant energy of our mornings and also the phrase Live your life con huevos — reminding us to face each day with boldness, culture and heart.”
