Came to Talpa Supermercados for the $1 taco Tuesday special and honestly... the tacos alone were worth the trip!
First thing I noticed when I walked in was how SUPER clean the store was. Everything looked organized and well kept. Some of the employees I interacted with didn't speak much English, but that wasn't a problem at all everyone was still friendly, patient, and helpful.
Now let's talk about these tacos! For $1?! You really can't beat it. I tried a few, but the carnitas were definitely my favorite--flavorful, tender, and I could've easily gone back for more. I also loved that they have a self-serve station with onions, cilantro, salsa, and lime, so you can dress your tacos exactly how you like them. Give me ALL the cilantro and lime!
Of course I had to try the horchata and piña colada too. Both were tasty, although definitely on the sweeter side for me. I'd probably grab a smaller size next time, but I'm glad I tried them.
Overall, this was a great first visit. Clean store, helpful employees, GOOD tacos, and plenty of other things that caught my eye while I was there. I originally came for the $1 tacos, but now I'm curious about everything else!
I'll definitely be back to explore more of the prepared foods and see what other goodies I can find. And yes... I'm absolutely getting those carnitas tacos again! read more
