Pastor tacos grandes
Patrick C.

Came back years later, and El Mero Mero still doesn't miss! The pastor tacos grandes are some of the best in the game. You can also grab an elote, fresas con crema, or Dorilokos at El Mérito, a smaller truck next to El Mero Mero. If you haven't stopped by yet, what are waiting for?!

Just driving down Carlisle on a late Friday night and happened to spot large groups and long lines at this taco truck. Boyfriend and I ordered al pastor and carne tacos, and waited an extensively longgg amount of time for our food, but the wait was SO worth it. Both meats were tasty and tender, and we devoured them quickly. My poorly taken photo doesn't even do the tacos justice. I'll be going back with plenty of cash in hand for more tacos and to try the elote!

El Mero Mero has become my favorite food truck in Abq. Usually a bit of a wait after ordering, but highly worth it. 10/10!

This was great food from a rather unassuming looking little food truck in an old gas station.

Late lunch/ early dinner today. Hotter than heck outside so decided to hide at El Pinto for…read moreawhile. Ordered cold beer and cocktails after we were seated inside Lotsa flies.....we get it....pretty much an open-air restaurant this time of year They did set a spinner on our table which helped. Was decently cool inside too I have been wanting to try their Kizer beef and pork offerings so i threw down on a cheeseburger (hard to not order New Mexican food here) But that burger was perfect! Delicious I recommend and was plenty big Of course i dropped a big spoonful of green chile on it And the green chile strip appetizer was outstanding Summer at El Pinto. Enjoy!

This place has amazing vibe, livelihood, and outdoor, cute seating areas. The place looks vibrant…read moreand lively. But the overall food is average. I had the house special chili ribs and the ribs aren't flavorful. There is no distinctive taste to these ribs but chilied. But since the chili is tasteless themselves, it doesn't contribute to the overall flavor of the ribs anyway. 2/5 Stuff sopadillas with beef is very large and filling. For the lunch menu, the price is rather affordable for how much food I ordered. The tastes? I can't tell because it is comparable to any other restaurants. Nothing really stands out to me. 4/5 The regular sopadilla with honey as a side dish is amazing and you can't really go wrong with sopadilla and honey 5/5. Chips and salsa is continuously refilled as requested. Overall service is average, with water refill being done per request, not automatically. I personally would take tourists here to experience the cute vibe of New Mexico that this restaurant gives: a cute brunch with the ladies, a nice hang out and gathering with friends.
