This is one of 4 locations of this Taqueria chain in Mexicali and is the nearest to the border. From a foreigner stand point, this is in between restaurant style and the street style taco shop.
They are not taco stand but, it has the flavor of a traditional taco stand. They are not fancy taco shop but, well prepared that it can be a location to come for a good tacos with visitors or customers.
This location is not too crowded but the service is pretty good.
The one thing about tacos in Mexicali is that you get to load the taco with salsas that you want. Many of the shop will have at least 7 to 8 different salsas, bean, guacamole and so on. It's what makes Mexicali tacos different among the borderline.
Here, you can also get a Parrilla. This is a hot metal plate loaded with cut grilled meat served at the table which gives you the delightful job of making your own taco combining the variety of salsa. Is tasty, fun and enjoyable way of eating.
The flavor is very traditional well seasoned taco meat. Not just the Carne Asada but also Alpastor (seasoned pork meat) and chicken.
The Chiles Guerito, a yellow mild chile pepper filled with ground meat and cheese with soy sauce dressing is a must to try. This is one of the specialties I enjoy when I come here.
There are many other items in menu that until now non of them failed me.
For a very casual friend or family gathering during travel to Mexicali or just to enjoy the local flavor, I consider this one of the place to visit in Mexicali. read more
