I don't know who Chester is, but his eponymous dish is a mix of Poblano Chiles, tocino/bacon, chorizo, and queso, grilled together and served hot and piping with freshly-made tortillas. I haven't been back in years, but if I ever get back to Mexico City, this place is on my "must go" list.

It's my first time in Mexico City and this was my first tacos spot in the city. It's TikTok famous…read moreright now so if you go right around dinner time into the late night hours, there is going to be a huge line. We visited around 3:30/4 pm on Friday so we missed the dinner rush. Our wait in line to order was about 10 minutes. You order first at the register and then seat yourself They have seating downstairs and upstairs. I recommend dining upstairs because they have some windows along the wall and it's a nice view of the neighborhood. For drinks we had the agua de jamaica con guayba and a topo chico. I've never heard of mixing agua de jamaica con guayaba but it works well. It's not too sweet, and they somehow balance each other out. It is served in a chilled steel cup, so it's quite refreshing. The drinks came out within minutes of us being seated. For tacos, I would skip the carne asada; it wasn't bad but it's not the best I've had. The stars of the show were the ornico taco and the taco de trompo. Their ornico taco comes with chicharon, ornico salsa (very spicy), and pickled onions. The tacos de trompo had fresh pineapple in them and they were just wow. Please try them. They do have non-meat options like quesadillas and a taco de aguacate. You can order any of the tacos with tortilla de maiz o harina (corn or flour). We also had the half order of papas which are nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They serve everything with 5 different salsa options. I loved all of them except for the yogurt-based one. It looks white and creamy but it wasn't for me. The food took about 20 minutes to come out but at least we were seated. Like I said, it's a crowded spot but I think it's worth the wait. ¡Provecho!

I came between meals but there was still a few people waiting outside. You grab a number before and wait to be called. Everything inside is very fast paced. I ordered the pozole with chicken that also came with some tostada shells. Really was amazing! It was actually a really cheap dinner too at about 7 US dollars. Definitely a place to visit for a good and cheap meal! Staff was super friendly and went with my poor English pretty well. Also easy to pay with a card. Highly recommended in the Zona Rosa!

It wasn't hard to communicate with very little Spanish that i know, people were nice. They accept cash or card. I can tell it was a local favorite, we were the only travelers who ate there at the time. It was busy but quick to get your food. We stood on the side where there's a little eating area available. Plus points, walking distance to the high rise AirBnB we stayed at so it was a safe neighborhood. I had lengua, cabeza and cachete which i was craving for the whole time and they were so tasty. It came in small tortillas which i prefer and was packed with so much meat. It definitely filled me. Hubbs had the more normal protein option which he also enjoyed. No frills, straight up good tacos.

Really wanted to get the tripa, but they didn't have it at that time :(. The salsa rojo is crack, but also incredibly spicy.

Got an horchata to split with my friends because my lips were dying from the heat of the salsa and it was one of the better horchatas I've had. Took a lot of willpower to stop myself from ordering more and overeating. These tacos were so easy to inhale! I still think about this to this day.
