Taqueria El Mexicano is a cozy gem tucked away on Leopard St. 🌮 Whether you’re here for breakfast or a late-night snack, their flautas are a must-try - they're perfectly crispy and fulfilling!

The vibrant decor adds to the lively atmosphere, making it a fun spot for groups. I loved their agua de melón; it was refreshingly light and just sweet enough.

While there was a slight delay with our tortillas, the friendly staff made up for it with their attentive service. Plus, the prices are unbeatable for the quality. Can't wait to come back for breakfast again! 🌞
