I also loved the call button at the table, which made it easy to get help without trying to flag someone down. The tacos de cabeza were solid. The meat was incredibly soft and flavorful. The pozole con pollo was also good, with a comforting broth that warms your soul. On the flip side, some dishes fell short. The guacamole and flautas de pollo were bland, and the tacos de bistec were okay. It was missing a smoky char and deeper flavor. This place gets packed so be prepared to wait around 30 minutes or longer in line, especially during peak hours. All in all, great experience for the service and a few standout dishes, but a hit or miss depending on what you order.

My favorite thing to order normally is the enchiladas but I decided to order the Chilaquiles here and omg- they were great. First of the all they do not skimp on the protein, it was packed with chicken. The portion was huge and I love that I got fresh avocado.

He explains every dish you are wondering about and also suggests things that may fit your taste. Ambiance: Air conditioned dining area with clean, comfortable booths.

Highly recommend it, excellent tacos and drinks in a clean and relaxed ambiance. By the way this restaurant is ioen 24 hrs, amazing!

There is literally two other taco restaurants next door to this place so the competition is high. This whole area is very walkable and there are bus stops and a metro nearby. The streets here in Mexico City are crazy so I don't really recommend driving but if you do, there are a couple of parking structures nearby. Seeing that they were on the Michelin bib gourmand list was enough to get me hyped through the roof. The line out the door to be seated at 9:30PM should have told me how good these tacos would be. Every hotel staff member recommended this restaurant so you already know we had to try it out. The first time we tried to find this place, we ended up getting lost and going to a different restaurant. That place was so mid compared to the flavor here. Although, the nearby "TACOS DE CABEZA DE RES" sidewalk shop might beat this out on the flavor. First of all, the tacos are essentially $1.50USD each which is really good compared to the prices we pay here in the United States. The quantity of meat they pack the tacos with is unheard of here in the states. Expect to walk out of here for about $10USD a person. The tacos are heavy and a really good value for the price. Value for the price is a 11/10. The tortillas are almost sautéed in the meat sauce on the grill that they cook the meat with. They have a nice crispiness to them and you get a hint of the delicious meat juices with every bite. The meat is absolutely fantastic. The pineapple on the al pastor tacos really complemented the saltiness of the meat. The onions and cilantro went well with the flavor of the suadero. The tacos were spectacular. Lick the plate after you finish good. The salsas were spicy but had a nice smokey flavor to them. Flavor overall was a 10/10. Honestly, there is 0 to complain about here. Maybe a couple of the tacos could have been slightly warmer but they were EXTREMELY busy here so I'm guessing the tacos were waiting to be sent out to our table for a minute. Not that the temperature detracted from my eating experience at all. We had to call the server over a couple of times to order more food and get some drinks but they were so busy they barely came. Service was a 7/10 for me. Bottom line/TLDR: BELIEVE THE TACO HYPE

I am a Flight Attendant and discovered this place while on a layover near MEX Airport. There is…read morealways a line of people waiting to buy gorditas and quesadillas. I finally worked up the nerve to try. As an American this 'food stall' would be intimidating to most Americans, but since there is always a line I decided to try. Cinthya was very nice and made me the BEST gordita and quesadilla and explained everything to me (in Spanish). I have no idea what I was eating, but they were REALLY good! And only 75 pesos ($4) for 4 GIANT gorditas and quesadillas stuffed with meat, beans, and toppings. From the airport terminal, go down the small unmarked hallway next to the regional bus terminal and pharmacy (behind Krispy Kreme in the food court). Cross the sky bridge and down the stairs. Walk about 100ft from the bottom of the stairs and turn right at the corner. She is the second building.

Or you may dine inside at cozy tables with cloth napkins. The restaurant is tastefully decorated with colorful traditional Mexican art. I felt like I walked into a different world far away from the bustle of the airport. The extensive menu has everything from traditional Mexican delights (antojitos), tacos, to soups and salads, beef, chicken, seafood, and even delicacies like crickets or escamoles for the adventurous. I chose a tlalpeño soup and a the Chile relleno. They were delicious! They have a full bar for those who want it, but I chose one of their refreshing aguas frescas. They also offer soft drinks or bottled water and coffee. I was too full for a dessert, though they looked amazing. Prices run high for Mexican standards: between 200 to 500 pesos an entree. But considering the excellent table service, enchanting decor, the quality and presentation of the food it is worth it. I've paid more in the USA for far less. The servers are attentive and friendly, dressed with unique traditional Mexican accessories. When we asked one to take our picture, he offered us sombreros to wear for the picture. Sure, why not? The restrooms were clean as was everything I saw. I have been through this airport numerous times but never had seen them before. I will certainly return when I get the chance.
