    Best Mexican food outside of Mexico!! We had an unbelievable experience at this restaurant — from the atmosphere, the top-notch service to the mouthwatering food. It may have been the best meal we had in all of Portugal! Can’t say enough good things about this place, so you’re just going to have to go and experience it for yourselves! Highly recommended ⭐️

    TOP! Food is super well prepared, great taste and quality. The Tropical Ceviche made quite a good impact on me ( but it’s sweet if you prefer more savory go for the Ceviche Pacifico! Waw!! The Margaritas aren’t expensive and are great ( there’s a Barman that does the cocktail) . If you’re around do t miss it either alone ( as I was) ,couple or friends the atmosphere is great for all ( cozy and good music) . I’ll be coming for more!! Já voltei e com amigos! Muito recomendável! Comida muito bem confecionada, preço justo, bom bar ( as margaritas são óptimas). Sozinho, em casal ou com amigos/família é Top!

    I’ve lived in Portugal for over 2 years and this is the best Mexican food I have found hands down. I eat here at least once a week and the food is incredible. The waiters are so friendly and the drinks are to die for. If you show up and there is a wait, I promise you it will be worth it.

    The nachos with cheese were good but they were cold, the carpaccio was spicy and sweet and some shrimps came raw, and they should at least be braised, in my humble opinion. The taco we ordered was the one with the shrimp and to be honest it wasn't that good, so overall for our non meat experience it lacked flavor. the churros were absolutely delicious and they are the only reason there's a third star, but the sauce on the side was dreadful.

    This place is super popular so expect to wait in line but it is so worth it. An incredible Mexican dining experience in Portugal. They are serving the best birria tacos.

    Great food and overall an great experience. Professional waiters always there to serve and give good service. Fantastic atmosphere and always full of customers. Usually a que to get in, so be patient. But while you wait, you’ll get served drinks. Affordable and great food. Highly recommended.

    Cozy mexican restaurant. The space is quite small, so if it is full gets a bit hard to walk or move around the tables. Staff was lovely and the food came very fast. They have vegan options on the menu and delicious margaritas. The restaurant does not accept bookings, so first come, first served. They are open for lunch and dinner. Definitely worth a visit.

    Great Mexican food! I loved the shrimp tacos, I honestly can say that these might be the best tacos I've ever had. The beer was good, as was the tequila :) The place can be pretty packed on the weekends though, so make sure to be there early.

    Kind and fast service, very unique traditional mexican food experience. They are not afraid to use spices and they are doing it really good. The prices are a little high, but the for the quality of food you get, it is worth it.

  • 5/5 Sahil T. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved it, great tacos, great ambience. If I lived close by I would be ordering home from here all the time. I highly recommend it if you like authentic Mexican food. Also good Michelada.

    (Translated by Google) Paco Bigotes is a fantastic Mexican restaurant in Estoril, completely off the beaten track and right across from a S-Bahn train station. You cannot make reservations there, and the restaurant does not have many tables, which (rightly) have to cope with a huge crowd every evening. So you pass the waiting time with an ordered drink on the park bench opposite or on the street until a table becomes free. Well worth the wait - the food is delicious, the service friendly, casual and very cool. The Tacos Gobernador are an absolute must-have, everything about the shop is right. If you end up in Estoril, you should definitely plan a locally authentic visit here. (Original) Das Paco Bigotes ist ein fantastisches mexikanisches Restaurant in Estoril, komplett abseits der touristischen Pfade und direkt gegenüber eines S-Bahnhofs gelegen. Man kann dort nicht reservieren, und viele Tische hat das Restaurant nicht, das Abend für Abend (zurecht) einem Riesen-Andrang Herr werden muss. Also vertreibt man sich die Wartezeit mit einem bestellten Drink auf der Parkbank gegenüber oder auf der Straße, bis ein Tisch frei wird. Das Warten lohnt sich - das Essen ist köstlich, der Service freundlich, lässig und sehr cool. Die Tacos Gobernador sind ein absolutes Must-Have, alles an dem Laden stimmt. Wen es nach Estoril verschlägt, sollte hier unbedingt einen lokal-authentischen Besuch einplanen.

    Grabbed a quick lunch before catching our train. The food was delicious and fresh; the service prompt and very friendly.

  • 5/5 Arianna S. 1 year ago on Google
    Traditional place, with atmosphere and staff that deserve more than 5 stars. Also the food deserve more than 5 stars. I tried ceviche for the first time and I'm glad I did it here. It is a masterfully reinterpreted ceviche. I recommend it! …and, finally try margarita!

  • 4/5 Alex 11 months ago on Google
    Enjoy tasty Mexican food at this cozy spot. They're great at using spices to make tasty, filling tacos. You'll love the churros - they're amazing. Even though the place is often busy, you don't have to wait long to get served. Open between lunch and dinner during the weekend, which is great for late lunch or early dinner and margaritas in between. The tacos come in pairs and are very filling. The only thing that would make it better is a quick service line for beer and churros. The prices might seem a bit high in this area, but considering the good food, it's worth it.

  • 5/5 NAm S. 9 months ago on Google
    Great spot. Cool vibes and amazing food. Ive been in Mexico and LA several times and always enjoy mexican food. Here at Paco Bigotes, everything is fresh and super tasty, guacamole is great, ceviche perfectly seasoned and awesome mezcal based cocktail too! Love it! Staff is super pro, very fast, gentle and cool! Well done guys!

    Paco Bigotes is a Mexican restaurant beside the Sao Pedro do Estoril station. When we arrived we had to wait for around 30 minutes for a table. During this wait we were able to sit in their partnered bar just down the road. When our table was ready we could bring our drinks with us which was very handy. The food we ordered was fantastic. The nachos and guacamole were vegan and the guacamole was extremely fresh and zesty. The Vegan 'meat' taco uses seitan and is delicious. I was uncertain about pineapple in a taco but combining this with the homemade hot sauce was absolutely class. I ate two portions of them and I would advise this for anyone with a big appetite. We also shared the vegan avocado and lime cheesecake which was definitely something different! The flavour really grew on me the more of it I ate. The drinks menu was quite expensive and I found the mango and chilli margarita super tasty and was the perfect mix between a strong drink and a punchy flavour. The restaurant was busy but our server Tomas was very helpful and attentive. Even giving us a round of tequila and a takeaway of their homemade hot sauce (which is absolutely awesome by the way). If you like Tacos and Margaritas you will love it here, hope I get to come back 😁

    I love this place! The food is so tasty! I recommend the queso fundido, the fish tacos, and the shrimp tacos! Go early, because it's very popular.

    terrible service! You are simply kicked out of the institution to take new clients! The food is mediocre! attitude to customers is terrible! we were not allowed to finish the margarita and asked to go to the bar next door! although our check was for €120!!!! just insolence! We will never return and I do not advise you!

  • 5/5 Rafael F. 8 months ago on Google
    Amazing Mexican restaurant with a great festive atmosphere. If you are looking for a great spot to come and eat some tacos, around this area this is the right place. The combinations displayed on each taco are very well put together. Don’t forget to ask for your margarita too!

  • 5/5 Ted P. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing food with quick and attentive service. We stayed in Cascais on holiday and drove but could have easily taken the train as it’s right next to the line. We went on a Friday night and were able to get an outside table right away. The atmosphere is relaxed and has a cool hip vibe. So the food...we tried several appetizers and different tacos and they were awesome. The homemade “Mexican style” recipes were delicious. They even have several Mexican beers and lots of great drinks. You won’t be disappointed with this choice. Try it.

  • 5/5 Nuno P. 3 years ago on Google
    Great service, every single member from the team is nice and professional. Hands up for David that took our table making my friends birthday even better. Even though i was expecting more from the food, it is still pretty good. The drinks are 5 stars, good selection of mezcal and tequila and the margaritas are top notch. We will be back.

  • 5/5 David P. 3 years ago on Google
    Superb food, really friendly staff. I went for a double main course, Bistek taco and the monthly taco. Both were really round in flavour, u can taste the passion the people put in what they offer. Highly recommended

  • 4/5 SanDp.Thapa 3 years ago on Google
    Good food. If you want to send a quality time with friends would suggest you this place.

  • 5/5 Sergio P. 3 years ago on Google
    If you are looking for a great Mexican experience this is the place! The "Tacos de Cochinita" are the most similar to what you find back in Mexico. I've been living for a few months in Lisbon, and for sure I can say that Paco Bigotes is the place that I go when I feel homesick. It's a small place, but with a lot of charm with an amazing "Mural" in one of their outside walls, also all the decorations and and music, makes you feel like home. But this is not just for Mexicans, the food is amazing, the presentation, portion and flavor are very good! Just keep in mind that since the place is soo good try to arrive early to grab a table. Always wait for the dessert, the churros are to die for!!!

  • 5/5 Afonso V. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing concept in Paco Bigotes. Very close to the Parede train station you can experience a very colorful and friendly environment accompanied by amazing Mexican "tapas" and great local beers. I've tried almost everything and I regret nothing. I advise you to try their guacamole and the quesadillas. These are, for me, the best options to start with. Totally recommended.

  • 5/5 Jessica M. 3 years ago on Google
    He went for lunch and it was amazing. One of the best Mexican restaurants in Lisbon. The recommendations from the staff were spot on! The food looked and tasted amazing (sorry for the lack of photos but we could resist the food and started eating straight away!). I would definitely recommend the guacamole and the melted cheese for an entree. The tacos are great and even the deserts were worth it. Definitely a restaurant that I will gladly go again. Prices are fair for the quality and quantity of food!
