It’s still a seedy-looking strip mall, but the counters run long, the stools gleam in orange and turquoise, and the clean walls and vibrant murals highlight the obvious difference in target audience.
$11.50 buys three Tacos to try. The three C’s; costilla, cabeza, and chorizo are a winning combination, though bigger appetites will want one of every option. Cabeza is so fatty-soft it’s almost creamy. Costilla is chewy, with cartilaginous cuts where rib meat meets the bone, but the smoky flavor is quite special. Chorizo is spicy, fiery little pieces of good-textured ground. The tortillas are so thin you can see right through them, and the chewy texture reigns supreme. Unlike the bigger options I've had so far, these are truly 3-bite street tacos and they disappear deliciously and a bit too fast.
Of all the taco places so far, this one is the trendiest. The decor is instagrammable, and it was built more recently with aesthetics in mind. The tacos are perfect pockets with amazing flavors, and both their spicy red tomato and tart green tomatillo salsas are standouts. Great for a quick meal or a much-needed snack.
