I am very picky on Mexican food, lived in San Diego for years , visited TJ frequently for authentic cuisine. I always judge a place on; #1 hot sauce- can tell it's made with love, roasted to perfection and spicy as it should be.. #2 Camarones a La Diabla - my favorite dish- never watery, actually spicy and lots of shrimp packed with flavor.. #3 street tacos . Go to taco truck messy / hit miss $3-5 small tacos - here $2.50 taco - quick, delicious every time.. Usually only get seafood as that's my favorite- I always get spicy mussels for appetizers. Kids and family love chorizo queso, chili verde, quesadillas, seafood cocktails, Recently been trying other dishes.. my new go to -non seafood is Carne de su jugo.. it's perfect. Always Don Julio margaritas. They know how to make drinks properly.. Support this local small town business. They are legit and the only Mexican food that is always good. Never hit or miss like a lot of places these days...

Nina's Tacos can be found most Mondays at the Pleasant Hill Community Farmers Market from 400-700…read morepm CT... Make sure you check their Facebook page for their weekly schedule. So Taqueria Marissa has really good birria tacos... I was told by MANY people I had to try Nina's Tacos. So you all weren't wrong! Some darn good birria and I love the variety! Going to a farmers market to find her tacos kind of bit me in the butt though. A bag of freeze dried candy, a pie, and Nina's pretty much killed a Franklin. The farmers market and Nina's were easy to find. A big red trailer in the lot with quite a few vendor canopies at 5229 E University Ave in Pleasant Hill.... It's easy to spot. I was pretty close to their first customer today. I left work in West Des Moines at 330 pm and took 235E to University out to Pleasant Hill. 1 birria crunch wrap - $15 3 birria lumpia - $10 3 quesa birria tacos - $10 Everything came with limes and make sure you indulge in their hot sauce! $35 before tip and she gave me a free Coke to enjoy while I waited. Service was wonderful. We visited a bit at the window. I shared it was my first time ordering from Nina's and I'd driven across the metro to find her. I had a short wait for my order and a few people started to stack up at the window as I waited. The birria tacos were my favorite. The other two items lacked nothing. Their birria and consume in any form is top notch! SO tender and I love the flavor! Now if I had to compare Nina's against Marissa and Flame.... Why? It's like comparing three precious gems... ‍ Would I drive across town again? Heck yeah! That's really all I should need to say. Lots of menu items I haven't tried yet and it's a fun little growing farmers market everyone should check out. Especially if the crowds on Saturday morning aren't your thing. https://www.facebook.com/PleasantHillIowaFarmersMarket?mibextid=LQQJ4d https://www.facebook.com/ninastaco?mibextid=LQQJ4d
