Cheap Eat'n: Taco Burrito Mexico


For the last several Cheap Eat'n installments, I've gone with a few of my favorite burger spots. This week, however, I thought I'd spice it up a bit for those of you who are a bit tired of burgers after the Fourth of July. Maracas, please! It's Taco Burrito Mexico in Green Bay.

Despite having several locations in Green Bay, Taco Burrito Mexico tends to float under the radar. This is probably because it doesn't advertise or make coupons available like some of the other Mexican restaurants in the area do. But, this place doesn't need coupons to draw people in. Their fresh, authentic food does that. Tacos, burritos, tortas, breakfast, and Mexican colas and beers make this one of Green Bay's mexican cooking gems.

Taco Burrito Mexico restaurants are located on E. Mason St., Oakland Ave. (old Storheim's building near Green Bay West High School) and the newest location at 238 S. Webster Ave., between the hospital district and Downtown Green Bay.

Whether it's the Latin American soccer on TV, the sizzle of the steak on the grill, or the vivid Mexican murals on the wall, Taco Burrito Mexico transports you out of Green Bay to the heart of Mexico. Choose to eat in or carry out.

While you are waiting for your food, feast on complimentary chips and FRESH homemade salsa. Tacos, available with steak, chicken, chorizo or vegetarian, are only $1.75. That is comparable with Taco Bell but SOO much better. The burritos are HUGE and are available with whatever ingredients you want. Quesadillas, tortas, and chimichangas are also available with sides of rice and beans. For the adventuresome, you can try menudo (cow's stomach), horchata (a drink made with rice and milk), or one of their yummy desserts.

My go-to is the chicken taco, chips and salsa and a strawberry (fresa) Jarritos. YUM! If I ever moved out of the Green Bay area, Taco Burrito Mexico is definitely one of the places I'd miss.
