Taco Cabana Introduces Lineup of Authentic Mexican Flavors at all El Paso-area Locations

Guests can enjoy these flavors in tacos and street-style tacos, as well as in shareable group meals designed to serve up to four people. Additional menu highlights include Quesabirrias, served with a savory dipping consommé, and traditional Menudo, available on weekends.

“We’re excited to bring more authentic Mexican flavors to our El Paso guests,” said Ulyses Camacho, President and COO of Taco Cabana. “El Paso has a deep culinary heritage, and this test allows us to explore how these traditional flavors resonate with our guests as we evaluate opportunities for future menu innovation.”

A lineup of bold salsas complements the El Paso menu and includes a creamy jalapeño salsa with notes of garlic and a vibrant habanero salsa that delivers a bright, fiery kick for guests seeking extra heat.

The test menu is available now for dine-in, drive-thru, mobile ordering and delivery at participating Taco Cabana restaurants throughout the El Paso area. For more information or to find a location near you, visit www.tacocabana.com.
