Downtown

El Big Bad came huffing and puffing into the spotlight featuring 50 handcrafted tequila infusions (think peanut butter and vanilla habanero), craft beer and plenty of fare to feast upon.

El Big Bad is all about fresh juice margaritas and fresh Mexican classics.

In the kitchen, the gastro-cantina serves favorites like chili con queso, roast duck empanadas, and blue crab tostadas and mushroom tacos thanks to Chefs Randy Rucker and Ben Rabbani.

El Big Bad doesn’t just apply to their menu. The space offers 8,000 sq/ft of bar and dining room and 2,000 sq/ft of second story balcony space to enjoy Houston’s downtown skyline. There are also private dining opportunities upon request.
