Tacos el Gordo #2 offers a fantastic taste of authentic Mexican cuisine without breaking the bank. I visited on $1 taco day (Mondays and Thursdays) and was not disappointed! The street tacos are both generous and flavorful, especially the spicy chorizo.

The Tamarindo drink paired perfectly, adding a refreshing twist to my meal. While I found the platillo a tad average, the sizzling chicken fajitas had an impressive presentation. The staff were friendly, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I’ll be back for sure! 🌮
