# Tio Dan Café Puffy Tacos N Fish Taco Spot in Round Rock, TX. Listed on Weird Wire ATX. Classic puffy tacos and fresh seafood since 1987. Tio Dan Café traces its roots to 1987 when Daniel Sanchez Balderas Sr., known as Tio Dan, opened Ole' Taco after years selling tacos from his car trunk in Round Rock. His dream of restaurant ownership grew into a family of brands, including Little Red Wagon and Pacific Gulf Sea Island Fish Fry. Today, under the management of Mark Linda Balderas, the café carries on Tio Dan's legacy of quality and community commitment, serving signature puffy tacos alongside a full lineup of breakfast, Mexican plates, and fresh seafood specialties. The menu showcases both tradition and range. Puffy tacos come with choice of carne guisada, picadillo, chicharones, or specialty meats. Fish plates feature blackened catfish, baja fish or shrimp, and fried catfish filets. Breakfast spans build-your-own tacos, pancakes, omelets, and plates like pork chop and eggs or migas. Lunch specials pair items like enchiladas or carne de puerco with puffy taco and drink. Customers call it a gem and credit the puffy tacos as the best in Texas. The team's commitment is simple: as long as they're here, they'll support the community that's supported them. Rated 4.3 from 1451 reviews on Google.
