Did you know some of the best Mexican food in Texas could be found at a humble, small-town drive-thru? Taqueria Mi Rancho in Palestine offers everything from the viral Birria tacos to classic burritos and quesadillas, so you can get your fix without even getting out of the car.
The only thing better than happy hour on Taco Tuesday is satisfying your Mexican food craving without leaving the comfort of your vehicle. You can do exactly that when you visit Taqueria Mi Rancho in Palestine!
This drive-thru taco stand near the Texas State Railroad depot doesn't look like much, but it has some of the best Mexican food in Texas. Patrons have nearly a dozen different menu options to choose from, plus chips and salsa as an appetizer and churros for dessert.
Everything from the viral Birria tacos to Mulitas to quesadillas and burritos is on offer. Add beans and rice on the side for a complete and well-rounded meal your taste buds will love.
You'll also see tortas, or sandwiches filled with meat, cheese, mayo, cilantro, onion, and jalapenos. For all menu items except those including Birria, you get to choose your meat; the options are beef, barbacoa, chicken, and al pastor.
Loaded nachos and fries are also available, as is the popular fusion dish, Birria ramen. The latter features noodles in Birria broth with Birria meat, mozzarella cheese, onions, cilantro, and red pepper flakes. It's such a flavor-packed dish that hits all the right spots! Everything here is very affordable, too, so feel free to order multiple items for the ultimate smorgasbord.
