1. Cafe El Tapatio

Serving up some of the best burritos in town, this establishment offers a cheery dine-in experience where you can enjoy traditional fare. Their platters are great for hosting a group, which is perfect when you need pick-up or delivery service. Everything here is cooked to perfection with the freshest ingredients. And did we mention their margaritas? Um, yes, please! Please do not drink and drive. 

2. Mercado Cocina | Cantina

For some of the best pork tacos and handmade tortillas, visit this vivacious restaurant. Their guacamole is fresh and their salsa is a delicious addition to any entree. Be sure to drop in for their happy hour, which is between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. every day for half-priced margaritas and taco specials. They are open for dine-in, takeout, and convenient delivery.

3. La Taquiza y Mas

This is a locals’ favorite for a variety of reasons. From their freshly made dishes to their hospitality, customers brag about the joint. We recommend the tacos Asada and the chicken tortilla soup. Do you need to feed a group? Visit their website for information on their catering service. Oh yeah–don’t forget to add a decadent dessert to finish off your meal!

Where they make everything from scratch using the freshest ingredients, Taco Maya is the place.
