Torchy’s Secret Menu

Sharing is caring!

Happy National Taco Day! We thought we loved tacos, and then we moved to Austin. Now we REALLY have a love affair with tacos. Austin’s breakfast dish of choice is the breakfast taco, grocery stores here literally have adorable Mexican grandmothers making fresh tortillas in the middle of the store, and some Mexican restaurants in Austin even have a salsa bar that is larger than most salad bars.

One of the most famous taco spots around town is Torchy’s Tacos. They are known for their creative taco fillings, witty taco names, and delectable sauces. Even Obama ate here while visiting Austin, so it’s kind of a big deal…

We recently moved from an apartment downtown to a house that is only three blocks away from Torchy’s new flagship store. As you can imagine, we visit Torchy’s quite frequently. Friends have even joked about how we were on a “taco diet” because we ate tacos for six days in a row by accident (or was it???).

Unknown to many, there is a Torchy’s SECRET MENU! Yes, it is true. Yes, it is delicious. Yes, we don’t even order off of the “regular” Torchy’s Tacos menu anymore. Take a peek at the secret menu below. Our all-time favorite that we ALWAYS order is the missionary style green chile pork. The double-decker taco shell and the massive heap of guac are a total game changer, plus it is topped with their legendary QUESO.

    The missionary style green chile pork isn’t topped with queso.

      This is the worst news we’ve heard all week, kidding (kind of). It used to be topped with queso and we just ordered one to check (research, am I right?!?) and ours was queso-less as well. Take this as an excuse to order a side of queso so you can pour some on. 🙂

        The secret is to order the taco "trashy" which means covered in queso!

      That’s a GREAT one! We usually get it "trashy" by adding Queso!!!

    Thanks for this. I really loved the Matador, truly great flavor. Of course, the Trailer Park Hillbilly Style was great, as well. I also liked the Green Chile Pork and getting it Missionary Style makes it even better — though I guess I need to order it trashy, since it doesn’t automatically come with the queso.

      Yup, you can’t go wrong with ordering anything Trashy! Glad this is helpful. Living down the street from their flagship store means we eat a lot of Torchys!
