The breakfast burrito from Breakfast Little should be served wearing a crown-it's first meal royalty. These colossal creations come in five different varieties, all loaded up with crispy tater tots, eggs, and a side of red or green salsa. Go for The OG with a choice of bacon or sausage (plus cheese and garlic aioli), or try the Tia Maria with queso fresco and fried plantains for a little bit of sweetness that's balanced out with the spice of the charred red salsa.
Mama's Luncheonette excels in the art of handheld, wrapped foods-and while we love their chicken caesar wrap, the breakfast burrito deserves a spot in your rotation, too. It's smaller than others on this guide, but well-stuffed with smashed tater tots, soft scrambled eggs, avocado, and cheddar. Be sure to add slices of their thick house brisket, which adds a salty-smoky punch. And since you'll want to pour a shot glass's worth of the provided salsa onto every bite, ask for extra.
The breakfast burrito at this Financial District takeout counter is perhaps the cheesiest in the city. One bite and you'll see enough cheese inside to double as a dairy farm's backup supply. Filled with cooked-just-right scrambled eggs and dollops of creamy chipotle aioli, this thing will keep you full for hours. Keep it vegetarian as is or pay a couple extra bucks for a protein like sausage, bacon, or shrimp.
