It's a small flour tortilla, filled with a layer of grilled cheese aka the costra. The cheese is thrown onto the grill top, gets all melty and crispy along the edges and then placed in your tortilla. Now we pile on the choice of (asada or al pastor or both). Only $2 a piece. You then take your plate over to the condiments table and add on your salsa, onions, and cilantro. Damn good. Damn damn good. Yeah it's under a bridge. Yeah it's kind of shady at night, but the good news is that the cops love it here too haha ENJOY!

The "business" is a tarp covering with portable preparation equipment that is set-up every night, except Tuesdays. Tacos are ready for consumption at about 8:00 p.m. and the business remains open until the food is gone, usually in the early morning - 3:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. These are street tacos, with no place to sit and very limited parking and you need to make sure the servers know you are there. The tacos are well worth the trip to the far west side of the city. If you take a cab to get there, consider buying dinner for your cabbie, so you have a return ride. Tacos al pastor (those on the vertical rotisserie) are excellent, as are the bistek (steak), chuleta (pork chop). Try them all! I prefer them with just a touch of salsa, so as not to hide the taste of the meat.

Everyone wants to be here, there is a never ending rush, and visually pleasing red and white atmosphere and decor. This is what a CDMX taqueria should feel like. Plus everyone was so cordial. The food was pretty good, but nothing life changing. The menu is a little unfamiliar for Americans used to dining at a taqueria in the states. But whatever you order, it will be good. Great selection of salsas.

I can't remember what fruity drink he ordered, but I had him grab my tacos as well. We each got two tacos, and they were MASSIVE. My mouth is watering as I type this review. There's minimal street seating (or you can stand) while eating. We managed to find a few uncomfortable seats to shovel the tacos into our faces then be on our way. SOOOO GOOD. Get all the toppings. All the ingredients tasted fresh and flavorful. Then find one of the staff members to pay before leaving. Simple, local experience.

They tell md the tacos al pastor are particularly good and I'm happy with the generous nopal and the mushroom tacos and quesadillas. There's a large variety of salsas in all stages of picante. My husband likes the one in the molcajete the best. I like the variety, otherwise vegetable tacos can get boring. The seasonal fruit aguas are tasty and there's an unsweetened option. The servers are super nice. They always remember us and actually remember that I don't like cilantro and onions, but that my husband does. The ambiance is casual. I didn't take away a star, but the children begging can be a problem. One girl snuck up behind me and purposely coughed all over my food. I packed my tacos for her, but told her to ask politely if she's hungry (she looks very well fed and groomed). We stopped going for a while after that encounter, but we like the tacos. She seems to avoid us now.

The first meal of the trip is the most important. It sets the tone. The trip goes how that first meal goes, and I'd gotten so many passionate recommendations for El Turix, it became the obvious choice. I called the uber straight to the promised land, and hopped out with my luggage, into a run down, no frills interior. Just how I like it. I wish the written word could do any justice to how it smelled in here, but I won't even try. I can only imagine it is what a teenage girl feels when she walks into a Sephora. I ordered 4 cochinita pibil tacos, which is the only thing on the menu. Cochinita Pibil is a traditional Mexican dish that is slow roasted pulled pork. They pull the tortillas off the griddle and put them into this enormous pan of the pibil to give them a little bit of the juice and glisten from the pork juice. They then STUFF each taco, roll them up, and hand them to you on a plastic plate. I topped them off with the salsa verde and dug into them right outside. These babies actually exceeded my expectations. I was FLOATIN. Pork juice leaking out on every bite with flavor that can only be obtained through that traditional slow roast. It truly set the tone for the rest of the trip. This is the kind of simple, well executed meal that makes me grateful to be alive. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo
