Build-your-own taco bar with multiple proteins and colorful toppings
Taco Bars · Midlothian, TX

Build-your-own taco bars, done right.

Taco bars are how we fed Ellis County for the last eight years — and they're the package our catering customers re-book the most. Four proteins, twelve toppings, soft AND crispy shells, salsas from mild to bring-water.

We set the bar in your venue or in your backyard across Midlothian, Waxahachie, Red Oak, Cedar Hill, Ovilla, and Mansfield. 25 guest minimum. Kids love it because they get to build their own; adults love it because you can dial the heat to your taste.

What's included

Everything you need for the event.

4 proteins, your choice
Pick from: marinated skirt steak, grilled chicken, slow-cooked carnitas, ground beef, shredded chicken tinga, beer-braised barbacoa, refried-bean (vegetarian).
Soft + crispy shells
Flour, corn (gluten-free), and crispy yellow shells. All three at every bar. Tortillas held in warmers; shells held in cloth-lined baskets.
12 toppings + 4 salsas
Shredded cheese, queso fresco, sour cream, pico, lettuce, tomato, onion, cilantro, lime wedges, sliced jalapeños, pickled onions, hot sauce. Salsas from mild to extra-hot.
Mexican rice + refried beans

Server runs the bar
Our server keeps proteins warm, refills toppings, and answers guest questions about heat level. Replenishes for 90 minutes.

Frequently asked

Everything else you might want to know.

How much food per person?

We plan 3 tacos per adult, 2 per kid, plus rice and beans. There's always extra — leftover taco fixings come home with the host.

Can you do gluten-free?

Yes — our corn shells, corn tortillas, and proteins are gluten-free as cooked (no flour-based marinades). Tell us at booking and we'll label the gluten-free station separately.

Vegetarian or vegan options?

Refried beans (no lard available) and grilled vegetables are standard. Vegan: skip the cheese and sour cream — we'll add a labeled vegan salsa cart.

What's the most popular protein?

Skirt steak edges out chicken. Carnitas is a sleeper favorite — try it on a kids-and-adults event and adults will fight over it.

Can you cater a school taco bar?

Yes — we've done PTA fundraisers, end-of-year staff lunches, and athletic team dinners across Midlothian ISD. We work around bell schedules and dietary accommodations from the campus.

Do you cater taco bars for weddings?

Yes — late-night taco bars after the entrée are a hit. See our wedding catering page.
