Lovely little hole in the wall place by parque la alameda. Very clean bathrooms and homey. It's not fancy. But delicious. Had sopa de azteca and tacos de al pastor which were great that I had to order more. No fancy plating but delicious. Also order la limonada antigua. It's made with honey and chia seeds. read more

They offer a full menu list of the different tacos. I knew about a third of them. I had already had the tacos con bistro, and the tacos con pollo which are the safe types of tacos. Today I tried something a little different. Tacos de Longiza which are essentially tacos with huge sausage links. The order came with three actual tacos served on a corn tortilla. It did not come with any cheese, however, they did add crlantra and onions directly to the tacos. The restaurant is fairly simple and plain which is at least 80% of the restraints in this district look like. That being said, nothing special to note about the ambiance. My Server was cordial, however I did need to flag him down to get his attention regarding the final bill. read more

Hands down one of the best taco spots i tried in all of CDMX. It was the most flavorful al pastor without any chile, salt, or limon. However i did add chile and limon to mine for more flavor. I suggest you try both the regular al pastor and the al pastor especial because you get to try both of the types. read more

This place is a bit more expensive than a lot of other taco places, but it is slightly more upscale and brings in a different clientele because of it. Service was also good despite a slight language barrier ( I did my best!) It took a bit longer, but the pastor tacos were really good and they do an excellent job with the presentation. I'll try to remember to add my photos later, but they are basically the same as all the others that posted an al pastor stack (special) of tacos. All of the sauces are fun to add and tasty. I probably had some tastier and definitely less expensive tacos on this trip, but this place is solid and deserves a visit if you are in the area. This was one of three taco stops before hitting up lucha libre for the night. Check out some of my other reviews on tacos in Mexico City! I easily went to over a dozen places. I'm still working through the reviews. read more

Starting off strong in my book with the excellent service. The moment you sit down, she brings a stack of spices- now you know you made the right decision by turning left into the restaurant. This place is known for the Al pastor stack - smart really. They super stack it with their mixture of sauces and a ton of Al pastor. You'll finish the entire stack by the time you finish the meat. Consumme was my wife's favorite. different from the rest and maybe that's why they call it the especial! Affordable, clean, great service - 5 stars! read more

SERVICE: Service was great! Don't be afraid to ask for new salsa if there was already one on the table! Each table should get a new batch of salsa!

Rating 5.0 TLDR: from the episode in Somebody Feed Phil, and personally the BEST tacos I've had in the touristy parts of Mexico City - and I had ALOT of tacos. I dream of these tacos. Take me back please!!! Not TLDR m: our taco journey brought us to Centro and a must stop at SL Huequito. At first, I was unimpressed. It's a sit down taqueria, almost like a cantina, and it wasn't too busy. However, after ordering, it started to get packed. Fortunately, we had already ordered our al pastor. When our al pastor came, it was the most flavorful and amazing taco I've had in my life. Take my word for it. If not, watch Somebody Feed Phil - Mexico City. He stops by here, and his reaction is just as genuine. Arguably the best tacos in the touristy parts of Mexico City. This will be my first stop the next time I come back. read more

El Huequito is a chain serving gourmet, fancy tacos. For a casual-ish restaurant they have a great dish presentation. This location in downtown is very small. Most of the available seating is outside. But Mexico City has great weather, so I encourage you to sit outside. Service was polite and courteous. I ordered the queso rellenos. It's two tacos al pastor wrapped in fried cheese. Although the meat was excellent, the cheese was salty. So, I actually scraped the cheese off and enjoyed the pork instead. Now my friend recommended to try the alambre. It's a taco al pastor, but to another level with pork chop and steak. This is the dish to get. I tried it and I loved it. Overall, 3.5 rounded up to 4 read more

The best al pastor tacos I have ever had! I have had many tacos throughout my life at many different places and hands down these have got to be the best al pastor tacos ever! The unique thing about the meat here is that it's not red like most al pastor and there's no pineapple. Instead they have diced onions sitting on the grill that are basically getting caramelized in the fat of the pork from the spit. Then they dip the tortillas in the fat and juices from the pork before throwing the meat on there. The al pastor is tender and loaded with so much flavor and the onions and sauces that they add just ties everything perfectly together. The restaurant is a chain so there's a few of them littered all around the city but this particular one is basically just a tiny little storefront with standing room only. It's sandwiched between two restaurants and only has room for like two people working inside and one person outside manning the al pastor spit. We got the special which is just a mountain of al pastor and a bunch of tortillas. I highly recommend it. Vince and I talk about how this was the best al pastor we have had and we're both sad that it is so far away and we probably will not find a place in LA that comes close to it. read more

Los Angeles may have some of the best tacos in the US, but every time I bite into a taco, I think of El Huequito. It's always those non-flashy, no-frills tacos you eat standing up that always hit the best. A soft, warm tortilla hugging together thin crispy slivers of al pastor meat, followed by a gulp of sweet, fizzy Mexican coke to balance the taste buds. My only regret from my last visit is not eating more than 8. There are many equally delicious tacos al pastor you should try in Mexico City (I certainly aim to), but make sure El Huequito is on that list. read more

After arriving in Mexico City 3 hours later than anticipated, I got here hungry and greedy and to my mistake, I ordered 2 especiales for my boyfriend and I. Even though I only had a bag of Terra chips on my JetBlue flight, that was too much food and honestly a mistake! For 119 pesos per order, I got a humongous stack of meat that came with around 8 tacos. I could have easily shared one order, but we live and we learn!!! The taco stand is street side, so be prepared with hand sanitizer and wet wipes for after your meal. There is an assortment of salsas, sauces, and a container to put on your tacos, but I wolfed down my food so fast I barely could stop to even squeeze a lime on it. The tacos blew my mind and could not even top my favorite taco cart in Queens. I still dream about this place......... come hungry and get the especiale. read more

Oh tacos El Huequito -- how I dream of you and your al pastor tacos even thousands and thousands of miles away. No fine dining restaurant can ever beat these tacos. These al pastor tacos were hands down the best I've ever had. The best. Full stop. Tacos had minimal toppings -- but it wasn't about the toppings. It's about the al pastor, rendered to perfection with a hint of sweetness from the onion (instead of the usual pineapple). The sauces were delicious compliments to the tacos; so was the lime. But again, the hero of the plate was the al pastor. Tacos were served through a small window, and I ate standing up outside. I believe there was a sit down option. This is a chain, so there are more locations throughout the central district. But hands down, my al pastor tacos from THIS location was the best al pastor taco I'll ever have. read more

Niki wanted Mole Poblano Chicken and luckily Testal in Roma had exactly that. It is a very classy restaurant with excellent staff and professional friendly service.

This place was highly recommended by my brother and it didn't disappoint…read more Fernanda was my sever and was helpful. The place was full and the only table available was the one by the entrance but then luckily the booth became available and I kindly asked if I may move it to and they approved and all the servers helped move my plate, cup, napkin, and fruit. Made me feel like a Princess. I met two blind customers who was super amazing and sang to me by accident bc he was looking for the bathroom as he was waiting for his blind wife. Highly highly recommend this place Tip. The refill on Coffee isn't free there's a charge The specials only come with what they offer. Loved it!!
