Taco Tips & Ordering

๐ŸŒฝ Corn vs Flour

Traditional Mexican tacos use corn tortillas. Flour tortillas are more Tex-Mex. Ask for corn for authenticity.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Salsa Bar Rules

Green (verde) is usually hottest. Red (roja) is medium. Pico de gallo is mild. Always taste-test first!

๐Ÿฅฉ Best Meats to Try

Al pastor (marinated pork), carnitas (braised pork), carne asada (grilled steak), lengua (beef tongue), and barbacoa (slow-cooked beef).

๐Ÿ• Peak Taco Times

Best street tacos are often late-night (after 10pm) or early morning. Weekend breakfast tacos are a Texas tradition.
