    Our first time eating these delicious tacos!
    EF C.

    We came here on a recommendation from a local. The tacos were amazing!! We had the trompo, beef and chícharos tacos - all were amazing!! You can have them with raw and or fresh onions, cheese, cilantro and others condiments. Indoor seating is limited. All locals that we mentioned that we came here to eat think it's also very good. They are open til 3:00 am - they get the bar crowd around 1:00 am. There are 2 other locations. A must if in Monterrey for tacos lovers!! Ef Out!!

    Tacos de trompo con papitas.

    Deliciosos! Todo perfecto, la agua de jamaica con guayaba súper rica! Las salsas siempre frescas y bien surtido todo. El servicio estaba perfecto. Y el ambiente del patio al aire libre está súper padre.

    I will chop off my arm for these tacos. Nothing more I can say but wow. The chicharron tacos are the best I've ever had. The crunch, softness, fatty and flavorful chicharron itself was amazing. Along side it the beautiful pairings of onions, peppers and a slice of avocado to compliment each layer of flavors. These also comes with potatoes and pineapples. This place also includes 4 sides of different sauces with its each out type of flavor profile. Gringa was subpar... pretty weak. But if you go, go for the chicharron. Sincerely, A guy with one arm... probably (jk)

    Excellent trompo/pork tacos and good selection of salsa. Def. Recommend the trompa tacos. Tocas de rez we're pretty good too but if you are trying to decide, go with the pork/trompo.

    Al pastor

    Best Al pastor tacos, period! Don't be fooled by the outside. The smells coming from the kitchen are mouthwatering. The salsas are excellent, and the service is friendly.

    I was in Monterrey for a wedding back in March and stopped by this place. The trompo tacos were incredible. After I ate the 4 that I ordered, I immediately went back and got 4 more. Easily could have eaten 20 they were that good. If I'm ever back in Monterrey, I know where my first stop will be.

    Recommended by my local colleagues, situated in San Pedro on the other side of the dried up river, a quick 10 min Drive from Hilton Garden Inn, this was a great place for authentic taco. This is the best taco I have ever had, considering my taco experience is only from US where it gets as authentic as Velvet Taco from Dallas. I ordered 3 Res Maiz (beef taco) and 1/2 order of Papas Aplastada (deep fried potatoes). The order was served with 5 types of sauces. Taco flavor was amazing, sauces just enhanced the flavor. Beware of the red sauce, it burns, but I did enjoy it nevertheless. Aplastada wasn't anything to die for. If you are health conscious, I would say skip it for more taco. They also have Shawarma style taco made of pork, something I have never seen before. Nice outdoor seating, fast and great service, glad I tried before I left the city. Will be back if I am back to Monterrey. #repeatrestaurant #Airwolf

    Just left this place and it was exactly what I wanted. The food and service was amazing. Will definitely be back again when I visit Monterrey.

    See all
