    Menu - February 2026

    The line is usually long but it moves at a good pace, it's worth the wait. I do suggest looking at the menu ahead of time and having a pretty good idea of what you would like to order once you're inside. I've only had tacos here but every variation that I've had was delicious. They have other items such daily specials for lunch but I'm not very knowledgeable there. I would definitely recommend anyone to check it out if it's in your radar.

    As always, Brothers Taco House didn't disappoint. The Beef Mexicana and Chorizo were on point. The line wasn't long and moved fast. As always the ladies making the tacos were fast and efficient. Highly recommend for your next tacos.

    Line is long but the wait is not that long. Wanted the sausage egg and cheese but they were out. Got the sausage egg and cheese and the spicy potato I think? The we also got a lemonade aqua Fresca. The potato one was a bit disappointing, it was bland and could've used more flavor. I liked the sausage egg and cheese one a lot more. My uncle tried a lunch taco and he said he liked it more than the breakfast ones. The aqua Fresca was decent but not my fav

    A coworker of mine put me onto this establishment, and I'm definitely glad he did. Being nice, I went and grabbed some tacos for my colleagues, and I was told every single order was a hit for them. I went with the chorizo & egg. My home girl went with bean, bacon & potato (2x). Two nurses went with the chicken fajita, beef fajita, and a bacon, potato, cheese & egg tacos. All were fresh, flavorful, and packed just right. Not mentioned made right in front of you. The food quality was great, the service was family oriented friendly and efficient, and the ambience is laid back and welcoming, exactly what you want from a neighborhood taco spot that knows what it's doing. The servers definitely go over and beyond with a smile. Absolutely try to get here early because the lines can get long, but today the wait wasn't as bad as I thought it was gone be. It moved quickly. Worth it either way with the option selections they have. If you're craving some satisfying tacos that deliver every time, Brothers Taco House is a spot you should try out. I'll be back to try some other tacos very soon.

    At this point, Brothers is more synonymous with breakfast tacos than any other establishment in Houston. While there are other places that offer and even specialize in them, few have more years than this family-run EaDo institution, which is closing in on a quarter of a century. The lines from both tourists and locals happen on the daily, from the morning to lunch. It's hard to predict on when to come since the peak times fluctuate between 8-10AM and Noon. Thankfully the wait isn't too long and it moves quicker than it looks. It's really only an issue if one is pressed for time (#1) or if the weather is less than ideal. The other hold up which is people who don't know their way around and hold up the line while they make a decision. The tacos are all across the board in textures, flavors, and look. Personally, their scrambled egg with sausage and peppers is deceivingly good. The spicy potato seems super plain but is packed with a nice zing of flavor. I highly recommend salsa of any kind to add to the taco. It's not all tacos here: tortas, quesadillas, fajitas, and daily lunch specials are still very much a part of their food rotation. It would be remiss of me to not mention their amazing Too Good To Go offer, which is currently stands at $3.99 for 5 (random) tacos in a surprise bag. It's been one of my favorite ways to keep things affordable while enjoying a nice selection of their pre-made tacos. There is seating in here, but it's limited and located in the back. During the different parts of the afternoons, sometimes they'll give a little break (and even a little food) to the less fortunate roaming the streets of EaDo. I think the people who run the place are excellent folks. Be strategic about the parking situation, since their front lot only offers so many spaces. Street parking is practically essential and time flexibility is worth its weight in breakfast taco gold. ___________ (#1) Call ahead of time and make it a to-go order.

    Chorizo & Egg

    At 6:15 in the morning in a random Thursday there's a VILLAGE people line out the door. Cop. Construction worker. Biker. Just missing the Native. Assembly line taco formation makes it go super fast. Be prepared. Grab the salsa and peppers. Hot coffee. Excellent chorizo breakfast tacos. Amazing bacon tacos. Three filling overstuffed shells and a large coffee for $11 with a great little section to sit and devour. Wish I was here over the weekend to see how good the tamales are. Clean and cute and a treasure.

    Came here on a Saturday morning around 10am, and there was a line out the door. This building itself isn't huge though, and the ordering system is much like a build-your-own spot so the line does move quickly! We waited about 10 minutes. The parking lot is very small with street parking being the only other option, but that's fine since it giving more of a "grab and go" place anyways. There are a few bench tables and barstools inside though for those who want to dine in. The food itself (which in this case was classic breakfast tacos) were just good, nothing mind-blowing. I do appreciate how you can add all of your fixings at the end instead of having to go back and ask. Would I come here again? I'm not opposed to it, but I would not go out of my way to return if I wasn't in the area.

    Love this local spot

    Brothers Taco House is an EaDo taco joint you have to check out if you haven't already! I'll be real with y'all and say parking here isn't the best. Only a few normal parking spots then the rest is street parking. But it's worth the trouble! Service is quick. It's counter service and the line usually goes out the door, but it moves quickly. Ambiance is nothing special, but you don't need that when the tacos are tasty and affordable. They have a ton of different filling options. I usually stick to al pastor, barbacoa, and beef fajita, but they have so many options to choose from. The chipotle chicken was surprisingly really good, and you can never go wrong with a breakfast taco option. What really sets this place apart is their salsa, 5 different options of different spice levels. And my personal favorite, the fresh chilis they offer on the side as well. Enjoy!

    Sausage egg, cheese & refried beans taco.

    BTH serves authentic, flavor-packed Mexican breakfast tacos. Choose from meats like barbacoa, chorizo, sausage, or ham, with tasty sides like peppers, potatoes, and veggies. Affordable and good value tacos; definitely worth a try!

    Lengua taco

    Drove by this place so many times so I decided to stop by. The place is more for take out. They serve breakfast and lunch. Has a small area to seat and eat for a quick bites. Not where you wanna spend hours to chit chat and eat. Good food and price ranges about $3-$5 per taco.

    Jake B.

    I see why this place is so popular. Cheap and delicious breakfast tacos. The chorizo was definitely my favorite, but everything we tried was perfect. Generally the clients and staff here speak Spanish, so it's helpful to speak and understand Spanish, but not required! There's a line, but it moves quickly. Parking is a bit tricky, but even with that the experience was smooth.

    Been coming here for years. The guy with the bad haircut and bad teeth was really rude today. He told me ten mins. I show up to get my order in ten mins now he talking about 15 more mins and was extremely rude about it. Too many good tacos spots to deal with his rudeness. I Will not be back. 1 star.

    Menu and food line
    Tracy N.

    This place always has a line wrapped around the building. Finally stopped in to see what the fuss is all about. The ladies behind the counter were super friendly and helpful to a first timer. Ordered 2 tacos: chicken tinga and spicy pork. They have 3 types of sauces mild (light green), medium (darker green) and hot (red). The red one is the hottest. They also give you cilantro and onions to go on the tacos. Super cute place with wood paneling and there is some hidden parking behind the building. Now for the food review... beyond amazing! My favorite sauce was the medium darker green one. Just the right amount of kick for the tomatillo. The food is fresh and flavorful and the flour tortillas taste like homemade :) So glad I finally went in. It's worth it to fight the crowds and traffic to try this place out. There is a reason why it's always packed!

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!
