Vintage Tijuana spot here! Las Ahumaderas has for decades been one of the better (top 3-5, arguably…read more#1) spots in TJ for tacos - highly recommended by tourists and locals alike. Las Ahumaderas is a collection of 5-6 taquerias on one side street off Blvd. Agua Caliente, one of the main thoroughfares in TJ. The taquerias offer very solid, relatively cheap tacos and tend to stay open until super late at night (often until 4 am). Las Ahumaderas is famously nicknamed "Taco Alley" and gained some international recognition after being featured one of Anthony Bourdain's travel and food shows. I've been several times but last stopped by Las Ahumaderas in September. The most popular spot there (and my personal favorite) is Las Tres Salsas - would highly recommend checking out that taqueria first if you've never been. The most highly regarded tacos here are the adobada (pork) tacos (my personal favorite as well). Ordered two adobada tacos, one suadero (cow belly) taco, and a Sprite. The nice thing about the food and drink at Ahumaderas is that a lot of the basic items are priced the same - each taco and the sprite were 45 pesos (around $2.50 USD) each. The tacos were all well-portioned, tasty, and filling (as usual). One thing a lot of tourists don't know is Las Tres Salsas has two levels, with the second level sometimes having a decent, relaxing view and atmosphere depending on the time of day. So I ordered and ate on the second floor (ordered from the server for that floor). Cash (dollars or pesos) are by far the most common method of payment but credit cards are also accepted at Las Tres Salsas and I think the other taquerias at Ahumaderas as well. If you don't speak Spanish there's usually someone at the register who speaks enough English to get by though the server I had that afternoon happened to speak very good English. Right after Las Tres Salsas I went to Tacos El Paisano, one of the other taquerias in the establishment. Ordered 1 asada (steak) taco, 1 cabeza (cow's head) taco, and a Fresca soda. Like Las Tres Salsas, all of the items were 45 pesos each. The tacos here were also good, though not as good as Las Tres Salsas; both of the tacos fell apart a bit due to being slightly soggy (though again they were good). I'm a picky eater but there are a wide variety of tacos, quesadillas, and other items to try between the handful of taquerias at Ahumaderas. Las Ahumaderas is about a 13-15 minute walk down Agua Caliente from Telefonica Gastro Park, another excellent foodie location in TJ. Must visit if you've never been before!

The…read moretacos are flavorful, open-fire grilled meat (carne asada) packed into tortillas that don't fall apart, even with the generous portions. The outdoor setup is clean, casual, and well-managed. There's a mix of shaded and sunny spots, with both standing and sitting tables. It's located on a corner with good foot and car traffic, and even though parking is limited, we always manage to find street parking nearby. The staff is professional, bilingual, and super attentive to keeping things organized and clean. Ordering is easy: tell the chef what you want, then pay in a second line. Signs are in both English and Spanish, which makes it very visitor-friendly. They accept cash only (USD or pesos), and drinks are simple - canned sodas and bottled juices, which pair perfectly with the food.

From the service & the flavor of the tacos it's just different & it shouldn't be, at least the flavor shouldn't. We came here a couple times instead of the other one due to it being closer to the Casino. Both times were ok, the Carne Asada & Adobada tacos were pretty much the same in both locations, real good. But the other meats weren't, the Tripa, Cabeza, Birria tasted bland & not freshly made. Also the customer service was not as good as the other location, workers here look sad & they were not too attentive & were kind of slow. At the other place they were fast, active & happy, the vibe at the other location was just better. Don't get me wrong I still come here if I'm near the casino & it's late but I'd only get the Asada & Adobada & maybe bring the workers a Red Bull :)
