Tomball, Texas is home to a gem that’s serving up truly authentic Mexican cuisine: Bigotes Street Tacos. Since taking ownership in December, Eduardo and Berenice Camarena have infused fresh energy and passion into this local eatery, building on its already solid reputation for flavorful food and a relaxed atmosphere. Eduardo Camarena shared his initial impressions, stating, “I saw potential when I first came here. I think there’s a lot of growing we can do, and I have plans to make it happen.”
Established three years prior, Bigotes Street Tacos has become a beloved spot in Tomball, attracting a loyal customer base with its unpretentious vibe and, of course, its delicious menu. The name “Bigotes,” Spanish for mustaches, is playfully incorporated throughout the restaurant’s décor, from quirky mustache duct tape to a fun mural featuring celebrities sporting iconic mustaches. This lighthearted theme adds to the restaurant’s welcoming and unique character.
What truly sets Bigotes Street Tacos apart is its commitment to authentic Mexican flavors. Eduardo emphasizes, “This is not Tex-Mex; this is totally real Mexican food. A lot of places say they serve Mexican, but they don’t do it right.” The restaurant prides itself on using only the freshest ingredients, ensuring that every dish is made to order and bursting with genuine Mexican taste. Forget pre-packaged or microwaved meals; at Bigotes, it’s all about fresh, quality ingredients prepared with care in their kitchen.
The menu at Bigotes Street Tacos is extensive, offering a wide array of options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. From hearty quesadillas and satisfying tortas to traditional sopes, there’s something to please every palate. However, the undisputed star of the menu is their street tacos. Customers can customize their tacos with a variety of meats and toppings, ensuring a personalized and perfect taco experience every time. “We take a lot of pride in the quality of our food,” Camarena explained, highlighting the dedication of their cooks who prepare everything in-house with fresh produce and meats.
Adding to their success in Tomball, Bigotes Street Tacos expanded with a new location in Cleveland, Texas, in mid-July. This expansion is just the beginning, according to Camarena, who envisions further growth in the region. “Our customers drive from all over to come here, so I would like to put restaurants around the area so it can be closer to them,” he shared. However, he remains committed to maintaining the high standards of quality that Bigotes Street Tacos is known for, emphasizing a deliberate approach to expansion: “I need to take it one-by-one, though, to keep the same quality we have in this restaurant.”
