Tacos El Bigotes Menu

Birria, trompo, antojitos, mariscos, caldos and drinks. The full Tacos El Bigotes menu on one page.

The Tacos El Bigotes Menu In Short

Six sections, all on this page: birria, trompo and street tacos, antojitos, mariscos, grilled platters with weekend soups, and drinks. Birria is listed on its own because every birria plate shares the same pot and the same consomé. Use the table to jump to a section, or scroll. Both Houston kitchens cook from this list, and you can also order it on Uber Eats.

How Ordering Works At The Counter

The full menu is on the screens above the register, and a QR code next to them opens it on your phone. Order and pay at the counter, take a table, and the food is brought out. A few things that help when it is your turn:

ChoiceWhat to know
Corn or flourEvery street taco comes on either. Flour costs a little more per taco.
How manyTacos are priced one at a time and every meat costs the same, so mixing is normal: two trompo and one lengua, for example.
ToppingsOnion and cilantro by default. Avocado is an add-on.
SalsaRed and green bottles are on the tables. The red is the hotter one.
Birria platesConsomé comes on the side. Here is how to dip birria tacos without a soggy tortilla.

Choosing Between Trompo And Pastor

Both are pork, and both are on the taco list. Trompo is carved straight off the spit by the counter, and our kitchens are set up around it. Pastor is served with pineapple. If you cannot decide, order one of each and read trompo vs al pastor while you wait.

Food allergy? Cheese, wheat tortillas, shrimp and fish all come out of the same kitchen, so read the allergen note and tell the cashier before you pay. For a large order, use the contact page to reach the right kitchen.

Before You Order: Tacos El Bigotes Menu Questions

Does the Tacos El Bigotes menu have prices online?

Current prices are on the menu board at each kitchen and in the Uber Eats app. Delivery app prices are usually higher than at the counter, and both can change without notice.

Is the menu the same at both kitchens?

Nearly. Birria, trompo, tacos, antojitos and mariscos are on both boards. The Tomball Pkwy kitchen also runs a separate soups and caldos menu online.

Can I get a different meat in my gordita or torta?

Yes. Any taco meat, from barbacoa and lengua to trompo and chicharrón verde, goes in a quesadilla, gordita, sope, torta or burrito. Tell the counter which one.

What is consomé?

The broth left in the pot after the birria cooks. It comes in a cup next to birria quesitacos for dipping, and it is the base of the birria ramen.

Can I order for a party or office lunch?

Yes. Call the kitchen closer to your pickup point ahead of time with the number of tacos and which meats, so the order is ready when you arrive.
