Needed something before our movie and this place popped up. I noticed it was really little and I like hidden gems. I am so glad I picked this place. It looks like they just had the inside redone. It's small but very clean. We got the Pastor baked potato and quesabirria tacos with a Mexican coke and pink guava again Fresca. The potato was way bigger than I anticipated and SOOOO good! The birria tacos were excellent. There was only one waiter but for the size of the place he was the only one needed. He was very nice and let me taste the agua Fresca before deciding because I wasn't sure if I would like it. It was so good! I am already looking forward to going back. The price for everything was good and the food was excellent!! read more

El Tostaco Regio is a hidden gem here in Pasadena. They had some of the best birria dishes I've ever had! It's a small place, so it's not ideal for large gatherings and they're easy to miss. El Tostaco Regio does not serve typical Mexican cuisine. Their food is what you would find served on the streets of Mexico. So there's no refried beans, rice or a queso plate here. Most of their dishes comes with beans and a cup of broth. Their food is served fresh, but messy. Everything they make is packed with flavor, but not overpowered by spices. The tables have three complimentary sauces you can try with your dishes. If your other party is not in the mood for Mexican, El Tostaco Regio also have burgers and baked potatoes. Their menu is bilingual, thankfully. The staff are patient and kind. Prices are affordable. I will say that their AC system could've been better, considering we're in Summer now. They only have only bathroom. Aside from a TV playing Latino music, there's no decor inside at all. My major issue is that El Tostaco Regio is NOT wheelchair accessible. That's completely unacceptable! read more

El Tostaco Regio - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, Texas

El Tostaco Regio is hands down one of the best hidden gems in Pasadena! From the moment you walk in, you're treated like family. The food is packed with flavor--especially the birria tacos and birria ramen, which are absolutely out of this world. The broth alone is so good you'll want to drink it with a straw! Portions are generous, everything tastes fresh, and you can tell it's all made with love. The place is small and cozy with just a few tables, but that only adds to the charm. Service is fast, friendly, and goes above and beyond every time. Whether you dine in or grab it to go, you won't be disappointed. You can definitely feel the true Nuevo León flavor in every bite--it's authentic, bold, and reminds you of real Mexican home cooking. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food with amazing flavor and great service, this is the spot. A true Pasadena treasure! read more

Food was amazing!!! Service was excellent. Great spot for lunch. Highly recommend. Tough area but can't argue with the food.

Best tacos I've ever had. My first stop every time I get off the plane coming from Minnesota. The staff is so kind and excited for you to try their food. If anyone is excited for me to try their food, I already know it's going to be worth it. They put extra care into making it and the portions are large. Excellent service. Love the music. I hope this business grows all the way north. read more

I recently moved from California and have struggled to find good Mexican food (in my opinion). I live within walking distance of here and decided to give it a shot. I believe it was the owners who were serving, the man was very nice to me and gave me his recommendations. I opted for the Pirata and an agua fresca. It was so good. I ended up eating 2. I really recommend this place. I left so full. Will definitely come back. read more

Came to dine in at Tostaco Regio after a couple months of seeing them open and I wish I would have gone sooner! They are very welcoming and kind, as well as family owned! Out of all of the birria places is Pasadena, this restaurant has the BEST I've ever tasted. We had the lamb birria and it really gave me a taste of Monterrey. The tortillas were perfectly crunchy, the meat was juicy and they did not skimp out on stuffing each taco. We can't wait to try the rest of their menu!! Check them out and support small!! read more
