Ok you are a tourist and what you want its a place to eat great traditional tacos? well forget about any other place like salon corona, el huequito and such. Although i must let you know to be open to a not so great looking place, which is why i give it a 4star rating because its not the greatest looking place, but believe me that's the only thing you have to worry about. After all .. all the other places just sell you the look of them while their food its bad and pricey.
Alright so, dont be scared as i told you this is a traditional place, and super affordable for locals so its dirt cheap for tourists, be risky and order the tongue, tripe, brains tacos, but if you are not into that, well take the traditional pastor tacos that are very flavorful and not so dried, also if you are going with a group do order an alambre plate.. they have different prices for the sizes, or share a torta with an other person.
Overall expect to spend 100 pesos per person to come out so full, that you wont want to eat for a while, also keep in mind this place its open super late as 5am on weekends and will not leave you disappointed, be confident even if you dont speak spanish, that a few of the waiters will try the best to understand you and clear any doubt's you might have.
On my multiple times i been there there is always tourists and ive notice that whats confusing its that people wants to know what kind of meat they are eating, so well just FYI, most of the meat its beef. like el pastor, suadero and bisteck. Some meat can alternate like tripe, cabeza can be of pork or beef, chorizo its pork for sure and well the tacos dorados i believe they sell beef and chicken.
Pollo = chicken
Res = beef
puerco = pork
This place serves beer, has no parking but a paid one its down the street and only accepts cash, and did i mention its open super late? yeap for that super late snack or a drinks night out in the area.
PD. Dont be confused with the new place around the corner on 5demayo, that place it so new i dont even remember their name, but has an orange look on the outside with a newsstand as a neighbor.
Este lugar, en isabel la catolica enfrente de una farmacia y unos tacos de guisado, es para mi el mejor del centro en cuanto tacos a cualquier hora y antojitos a media noche va! y mas en esos de noches de parranda en el centro. En el dia la verdad nunca se me ah dado de ir pero ya en la noche y madrugada es lo mejor, ya que esta abierto como de 9am a 5am del dia siguiente.
Pero bueno la comida es genial! desde tacos, tortas, gringas y lo mejor los alambres, el servicio es bueno y los meseros son amables y no se siente ese ambiente de seriedad que otros lugares tiene.
El precio es genial pudes comer decente con 50pesos o atascarte por 100 pesos eso si las cervezas son un poco caras para el lugar. en verdad no es el sitio mas limpio que puedas ver si te pones a fisgonear, por eso le doy 4 estrellas los baños son algo sucios y descuidados, pero se mantiene decente en la parte de los comedores y las parrillas bueno eh visto como se ponen a limpiarlas con cloro, borax y ajax todas las noches.
PS. no se confundan con el lugar ala vuelta en 5de mayo de color medio naranja, ese es un lugar nuevo que no estan bueno, solo una imitacion que pareceiera que no pudo encontrar otro lugar en el centro donde poner su puestucho. read more
