If you have an appetite that can’t be tamed, Chacho’s Tacos in Corpus Christi promises to get it under control. This unassuming Mexican restaurant is home to a four-pound taco known all over the city, and its massive size is matched only by the bold, zesty flavor packed into every bite.
Chacho's Tacos, a hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint in Corpus Christi, doesn't look like much on the outside. The drive-thru line that's always wrapped around the restaurant, however, tells a different story.
For all three meals of the day, hungry locals get their south-of-the-border fix. Early birds are rewarded with breakfast tacos featuring chorizo, fluffy scrambled eggs, potatoes, and myriad other fillings, all stuffed inside a warm homemade tortilla.
If you can't arrive in time for breakfast, fear not - the lunch and dinner options are just as delicious. Patrons rave about the puffy tacos, which have just the right amount of crunch to provide those textural nuances that take a meal from good to unforgettable.
This behemoth is stuffed to the gills with carne guisada, beans, cheese, eggs, bacon, and potatoes. Fork for reference - it's huge! Share with the whole fam, or tackle it yourself in under 10 minutes to win a T-shirt and get your picture on the wall of fame!
