La Calle Tacos is officially coming to Midtown Houston. This is the second Houston location for the fast-casual concept specializing in food from Mexico City. The menu at La Calle is simple: Mexican-style tacos with corn tortillas or American-style tacos with flour tortillas and sides of Mexican street corn, beans and rice.

The restaurant will be opening this spring at Bagby Park.  La Calle Tacos will enhance the current kiosk area with a sustainable container bar and an expanded patio with additional outdoor seating.  “Our business model is very dynamic. We open from 7:00 am to 2:00 am so we can serve breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner, and of course late night tacos,” said Ramon Soriano, Owner of La Calle Tacos. “In addition to the new bar and seating options, we’re adding a large screen to the side of the building. It will be the perfect spot to visit with  kids and pets, watch a movie or a game while enjoying some tacos and margaritas.”

For safety purposes, public access is restricted from areas of Bagby Park that are currently undergoing active construction. The dog park, bocce ball court, and public seating are available for guests to use.  Since the initial closing for renovations in June 2019, the design plans have changed and been significantly upgraded. The project schedule has been extended to accommodate for the time required to design and construct the additional upgrades that have been added to the project scope since the start of construction.  

Bagby Park’s newly enhanced spaces will soon be available for public use.  The upgraded stage now includes a canopy and additional lighting to better accommodate outdoor performances. The lawn modifications will provide a relaxing space of natural beauty and improved site drainage. To improve public safety, additional perimeter lighting has been added to increase visibility into the park. The bathrooms and storage facilities have been upgraded and expanded to better accommodate La Calle Tacos operations and future park programming.
