Tacos CDMX has the best street-style tacos in the entire Ithaca area, hands down. I moved here…read moreafter 20+ yrs in California where food truck tacos are not only a staple, but an edible art form that is both approachable and cherished. Here, the food is never prepared in an overly curated-for-Instagram-but-empty-inside kind of way, but rather with a focus on simple ingredients prepared with care in a slow-food way that emphasizes their deep, rich flavor. My favorite is the Al pastor taco with pineapple, a combo of guacamole and chipotle salsas, with fried cheese added on top of the diced onions and cilantro. To die for!! And still only $5 each. This afternoon, after eating literally hundreds of their tacos over the last few years, I tried their smash burger. Absolutely outstanding! Might be the best burger in town as well, it's honestly that good. And only $10! A few weeks ago I had a burger from a local restaurant for $20, which seems to be the going rate, and it paled in comparison to their oh!-so-tasty-you-can't-stop-licking-your-fingers burger! And if you ask, they'll customize it for you with a fried egg, or in my case, with lots of extra fried onions. Their torta sandwiches have also garnered a cult following due to their packed ingredients and massive size, still just for $14. If you're lucky, in the warmer months Eduardo might be serving some of his delicious aqua frescas, or even better, some of his incredible lemonade beverages. Sooooo refreshing! The bonus: you get to hang out with these cool and friendly guys Eduardo & Carlos, as well as their friendly staff who work so hard to make your food so delicious. This place is truly an Ithaca treasure! And more good news: they just moved (May 2026) from Press Bay Alley (118 W Green St) to Press Bay Court (114 W Green St), where they now offer plenty of indoor seating, a big improvement over the old place that only had room for a handful of people at a time. Their outdoor seating has grown as well, and the overall ambiance is more festive and fun. Do yourself a favor - go get some of those mouth-watering tacos, and definitely try the smash burger!

Alternatively, fillings with chicken, pork, or beef can be substituted but are similarly priced. The $5 tacos are the biggest hit by most people, who also have to always wait in line to order. Although exceptionally clean, the ambiance should have included better lighting and some Mexican music played over speakers. Additionally, the choices of bottle beverages were limited - they lacked a self-serve soda machine. Viva Mexico Tacos CDMX

I love the plug-in lighting, spread out all around the ceiling, and the bright colors. I sat at the bar and had a beer and a couple of tacos. Service was quick and fairly friendly. They had some decent beers on tap (I had a sour which was pretty good). The taco selection looked pretty good. My street taco with pork was just pork with some gravy in a taco (plus some veggies), but it hit the spot. Similarly, my chorizo taco (I asked for it mild, and I don't know if they toned it down or it's just CNY spicy) was pretty solid, with plenty of meat, enough cheese and slaw, and an overall good taste. Neither of these tasted like SoCal or NorCal tacos, but there are a lot of different tacos out there from a lot of different places, and I don't want to get started on authenticity. It tasted good.

From the moment you step inside, you are immersed in a trendy, upscale-casual atmosphere beautifully inspired by Frida Kahlo. We kicked things off with the Triple Dipper for the table--a giant basket of warm, fresh tortilla chips served with salsa roja, guacamole, and queso, with the guacamole and queso being absolute standouts. For my main, I ordered the Ensalada Verde and a slightly citrusy kale salad tossed with seasoned tortilla strips and extra pepitas. It was remarkably well-balanced, perfectly dressed, very tasty, and visually lovely, too! Thr service and atmosphere truly made the entire evening. Our server was friendly and attentive, effortlessly accommodating our request to split the bill three ways without missing a beat. And, even with the bustling atmosphere and the incredible amount of vibrant, intricate decor packed into the space, the restaurant was remarkably clean and well-maintained. It is always impressive to see a spot that has been open for a while keep up such pristine standards. We wrapped up our meal by sharing an order of churros--six hot, chewy sticks served with a spicy chocolate dipping sauce and whipped cream. The chocolate had a serious, wonderful kick to it, and the whipped cream was a lifesaver for balancing out the spice for those of us who love more heat than we can actually handle. Whether you're dropping in for one of their many margaritas or a scorpion bowl or enjoying a full, three-course meal, I highly recommend eating here while visiting Skaneateles!

Have had better Mexican before but the food us tasty as hell and the portions will leave you stuffed. My girlfriend couldn't even order an entree after appetizers lol. A ton of tequila options. Definitely order the Birria Pizza, but beware of its size. Service was great, Devin was very sweet and gave great recommendations. We did not feel rushed at all. Inside is fine, nothing really crazy. Great place and one of the Skaneateles staples. Best Dish - Birria Pizza, Lalo Tequila Would Return - Absolutely
