Stan's

$$$$Perfect For:Breakfast

In May of 2024, a man went viral for selling Austin-style breakfast tacos from his bike basket in Lower Manhattan. That's Stan, who got his start in the NYC food truck scene, specializing in flour tortillas stuffed with egg, tortilla chips, and chorizo, or spicy beef. Now, you can find Stan at Lovely's Old Fashioned, a Hell's Kitchen burger counter, selling tacos ($4-6) and burritos ($7-9) that even your Austin friends will approve of. There’s also coffee, if the coffee pot is cooperating that morning. He's rumored to winter in the Dominican Republic, so stop by for breakfast while you still can.
