El Taquero Comer

Street-food roots on North Zaragoza

El Taquero Comer's founder learned restaurant work in the family business in Fort Worth before developing this El Paso project. It began as a food truck and grew into a walk-in restaurant. The current address is 3260 North Zaragoza Road, where a menu built around several meats and tortilla formats keeps the street-food origins visible.

Asada, pastor, barbacoa, carnitas and tripas offer different cuts and preparations; campechanos combine pork and beef. Tacos can be ordered with flour tortillas, and the three-taco special adds rice and beans. Cheese and guacamole are listed additions. This makes it possible to keep an order simple or build a more substantial plate without choosing an entirely different section of the menu.

Try the filling in another format

A vampiro places meat, cheese, onion, cilantro and avocado on a tostada base. A mulita uses corn tortillas with meat, onion, cilantro and guacamole; a regular quesadilla moves to a larger flour tortilla. The torta Hawaiana adds ham, cheese, pineapple and pastor, while the Cubana uses ham, cheese, pastor and sausage. The contrast between those formats can guide the choice more clearly than a general promise of a large Mexican menu.

The regular burrito includes beans, cheese, onion and cilantro; Supreme adds rice, vegetables, guacamole and sour cream. For children, the menu provides a two-taco plate or a small quesadilla with rice and beans. A group can therefore vary the size of its orders within the same kitchen.

Ordering from the right kitchen

The contact is 915-261-7382. The official schedule is Monday–Saturday 11 a.m.–11 p.m., closed Sunday. SpotOn handles a direct online ordering link; the restaurant also links Uber Eats and DoorDash for delivery. The phone is the restaurant contact, not a separately advertised courier dispatch number. Older Montana Avenue references should not replace the current Zaragoza address.
