What a joyful surprise this place turned out to be! After wandering through the historic streets of Coyoacán on a beautiful Sunday, we finished visiting the iconic Casa Azul -- the home filled with color, art, and the spirit of Frida Kahlo. After soaking in the beauty of the house she once shared with Siqueiros, our appetite was ready for something equally memorable. And we found it. We strolled several blocks, enjoying the rhythm of the neighborhood -- families out after Mass, couples walking hand in hand, the scent of sizzling food drifting from lively street stands, and the warmth of a community truly alive. Then, almost as if meant to be, we came upon La Casa de Kos Tacos. Quaint, inviting, and full of locals enjoying their Sunday, it immediately felt like we had discovered something special. As we sat, our eyes wandered from table to table, admiring colorful plates passing by. Everything looked homemade, comforting, and deeply authentic. I ordered a variety: * Three sopitos * Chicharrón gorditas * A veggie taco -- chile relleno Every single bite was fantastic. Honestly, I couldn't decide which I liked most -- each dish had its own perfect balance of flavor, freshness, and that unmistakable "like home cooking" touch. While eating, I found myself constantly glancing at plates going by and overhearing neighboring tables praising the food. That's always the best sign -- when locals are smiling, complimenting, and clearly enjoying themselves. Overall, this is a must place to eat. In a city overflowing with incredible culinary options, this one truly stands out. Warm, delicious, authentic, and full of charm. We are absolutely returning before heading home -- no question about it. If you find yourself in Coyoacán, don't miss it. Your taste buds will thank you!
Overall pretty decent taco spot that certainly had some unique tacos on the menu. The jabalí tacos actually were so tender and juicy - surprisingly good! Tacos come in orders of 2 and are a little larger than street tacos. The salsas offered at La Casa de Los Tacos were delicious super super spicy to be prepared! We also tried the tromp tacos that came with a bunch of meat also super good! The ambience and the service of the restaurant was also fantastic!
Cozy & Charming Place!! Handmade tortillas, fresh salsas, unique tacos, some vegetarian options & plenty of menu items. We were seated immediately, server was attentive, and prices were great!!!!! Giving them four stars because some of our food items lacked flavor. My flor de calabaza quesadilla had sprinkles of cheese, the bistec tacos were just okay, and the asada tacos were moist with fatty meat!
We finally found a place that lives up to Mexico City's dining reputation!!! Anthony Bourdain would have loved this place. My tastebuds had a party. The service is great, the prices are really reasonable and the food is amazing!
Service was great, we were able to walk in and get a table for Saturday breakfast. Delicious homemade salsa and tortillas. I had a huitlacoche omelette and it was great. It's small I side but super cute style.
Great place to try and they have a variety, but for me a bit underwhelming as most tacos are served bare. They are simple and even with the salsa sampler table side the proteins were dry to Me. The best taco were the gobernador as these has shrimp and melted cheese. Platanos were amazing, and so was the mango Fresca.
I'm overwhelmed writing this review. We ordered SO Many dishes I'm trying to keep track of everything.. ok here we go in no particular order: chilaquiles (one with eggs and one with steak) - flavors were spot on, the tortillas were that perfect in between of soggy and crunchy, the eggs were bountiful and the steak was think and tender. Cricket tacos - the good news is the crickets are battered and fried so you don't even see them. The bad news is they do have a mildly earthy/sour taste - mixed in with all the toppings it wasn't really offputting or even noticeable. But eating one on it's own was less fun. Queso con chorizo - i didn't eat that much of this but i do advise to eat it FAST. Scorpions! - This one is more of a mental challenge than anything else. It literally just tasted like a little leaf fell on your jicama while you were walking under a tree. The scorpion was completely dried out and tasted like absolutely nothing. Just a crunchy little twig. no big deal.
This place is incredible. Great service, amazing pricing and some of the best tacos we've had in Mexico City ever. The vegetarian ancho taco was out of this world. It came topped with crispy carmelized onions we'll dream about. The taco sampler was so unique. Green chorizo made me nervous but I'm so glad we tried it! Bonus: it made our day to watch one of the chefs prepare blue corn tortillas as we ate.
This is my first time in Mexico City and my husband and I had our first dinner here. Super cute place with friendly servers. We ordered the guacamole and tortilla chips as an appetizer and I ordered the Tacos Irene: 3 grilled shrimp and fish tacos. My husband ordered the grasshopper and skirt steak tacos. It was all delicious and we were very full. I highly recommend this place if you are in the Coyoacan area in Mexico City. The prices were cheap also. Our whole meal with tip was around 35 USD. They also accept Visa credit card if you do not have cash.
Second time visiting this place and it's amazing. They're good is great they even have a person making tortillas so they're pretty fresh. I'm adventurous so I had the scorpions but I already had the pre Hispanic tasting. Service is friendly and helpful. This place is prefect for small groups. Can't wait to come back.
If you go order the Tacos de Irene!! Life changing, so good. Guacamole was also incredible. After you finish here get the churros just a block away.
The chile vegetarian stuffed tacos are exceptional. We ordered two of these due to deliciousness. Everything else vegetarian was also tasty. The ambiance was adorable also.
We were in la Ciudad de Mexico for a week and this was likely my favorite meal by far. Not only was it a quaint little establishment, but the service was good, the food better, and just overall a great experience. Don't forget to try the gras hoppers, yes they are on the menu and quite good. The drinks were good, especially the margaritas. Everything comes with a generous portion of aguacate and the frijoles were amazing. The salsas were delicious but unfortunately not spicy, although others might think differently. Gotta try this place if you are staying in the Coyoacán. read more
Tacos con chapulines were FIRE. When I landed late at Benito Juarez airport and got to Coyoacan after 8pm, I knew I wanted something close to my hotel and delicious. I walked to the tranquil downtown Coyoacan area and saw La Casa de los Tacos was open, so porque no? The girls were so nice. And they were open with a few diners inside. It was kind of empty and chill, but the ambiance was festive and exciting due to the music and activities going on in el parque nearby. I was so hungry I wanted to eat everything, so I got the tacos con chapulines (HELLA FIRE) and a side plate of arroz con platanos. I also ordered a beer, but that never came out. Their salsas are hella good. Especially that insane truffle one, who knew! It was SO good. The pan fried platanos were so delicious and the perfect little craving I needed for a sweet treat afterwards. They accept cash and card, and make sure you tip you extranjero/turista! read more

This restaurant is a great option, really close to Jardin Centenario which is at the center of bohemian Coyoacan. The prices are good compared to other restaurants in the area. They have blue corn masa which is not easy to find and they make their own tortillas. This is a good place to try grasshoppers (chapulines), a traditional dish that can be considered gourmet. They also have other prehispanic dishes like escamoles. They have many options to choose from. Not only tacos but traditional dishes like enchiladas, gringas, huaraches, pozole, alambres, etc . We ordered the chapulines and they were well served with guacamole and tortillas. The service is really good, they are usually pretty packed so they know how to handle a full house with fast service and good food. The decoration is nice and simple and even though the place is small they can fit several small tables. A must try if you are in Coyoacan! read more

Went with a group of 10+. Everyone absolutely loved their meals. The food was made with the freshest ingredients and were full of flavor. Definitely the best tacos I've ever had in my life. They have menus in English and Spanish which was much appreciated. read more

The salsas are bomb; esp the chipotle one. The birria taco was alright. Didn't care for the taco de res. The agua fresca & limon margarita were good. read more

Definitely recommend this place to anyone who visits Coyoacán. I spent 199 pesos (roughly $11-12 USD) on 2 lemonades and 2 entrees. We tried the sopes sencillos and the potato flautas ahogadas. The sopes are delish, even if they were sencillos/ plain. The flautas were really good--crunchy tortilla shell and a really zesty tomatillo and lime salsa. The waiter brings 5 different types of salsas (nearly all pretty spicy) and a few limes for you to add to your liking. The salsas were all unique and spicy; one contained habanero, one contained lime and avocado, another contained peanuts, etc. The restaurant may not be the fanciest, but it's got a lot of character. It definitely has a casual vibe. I like that they allotted a little space in the middle of the restaurant where you can see someone hand-make the tortillas and sopes. Overall, one of the better places I ate at when I visited CDMX. I recommend it because the food is so good and the prices are super affordable. read more

After embarrassingly falling for a tourist trap in Centro (Cafe de Tacuba), this restaurant was everything I needed. Super friendly staff, English menu available and a stone's throw from the main plaza in Coyoacan. But most importantly, the food was excellent. I highly recommend the enchiladas verdes. They also have a very good craft beer selection. read more

Great clean spot for tacos if you are in the area. The menu has a variety of options. I got the tacos de birra which come with a broth type liquid to dunk. They are good but very rich. Lemonades were great! Small space but lots of seats indoor and out. Slow service and not quality staff unfortunately. read more

The best tacos I had on a 12 days trip around Mexico inland! I arrived in between meal times and did not have to make reservations, but there were already a few tables with the "reserve" sign on them - I am sure the place is busy on the weekends/evenings. I first had the "Tacoterapia" that came with three tacos: pechita (little pig), petunia (pork belly), and the local sausage meat Chorizo Verde. The tacos were so delicious that even though they were enough food for me I ordered two more: the El Chapulines - finally trying the fried grasshoppers that I have heard so much about! These two tacos were large and full of breaded grasshoppers. While they were interesting to try, they are not quite my thing. Service was great and the sauces had a wide range of heat and flavors. Do not miss this place in Coyoacán! read more

Delicious tacos. Fabulous menu. Authentic tacos from different regions of Mexico. Nice small order of chips and guacamole. Tables are small. Staff is friendly. Good beer selection and agua frescas for the season. Don't miss this if visiting the St Juan Baptista cathedral. read more

My husband and I came here for lunch while we were visiting Mexico City for a weekend away. He comes to this city often for business, but this was my first time in the city. Having heard good things about the Coyoacan neighborhood, we decided to come here. There are a ton of restaurants here, all of them rustic and traditional. We chose this one, which is close to the town square. Service was delightful, food was the best we had. Tortillas were freshly made on site. Cost was cheap. We had all kinds of food and drink and paid under $200 pesos. When we're back in the neighborhood again, we'll remember this place and return. As for Coyoacan, I could see moving to this picturesque part of Mexico City and living happily in an apartment or townhouse with my husband, son, and dog. read more
