These tacos are awesome! Tacos al carbon. Grilled meat- then chopped small. Very tasty fresh corn tortilla. The papas are awesome everything hits!
By far some of the best tacos I have had! The tortillas were handmade, the portions were way more than I expected! Which is always a plus, the papa asada was huge and full of bistec! All in all very surprised with the generous portions and the taste was perfect! 😍
Visited for the first time after being recommended this place for years by my friend. It’s a no frills, hole in the wall taqueria run by lovely tias. Think DIY construction office trailer with a kitchen side operation. As you approach, the smell of chargrilled meat intoxicates your senses. Aesthetic is nonexistent, and that’s okay, because the food is what matters to the bellies of every visiting patron. Not looks, not vibes, just that you leave full. The menu is simple. Tacos, dressed papas/potatoes, burgers, and a few other taqueria essentials. I tried the mixed bistek and mollejas tacos on corn tortillas. The tortillas are large and pillowy but not the softest I’ve sunken my teeth into. For those unfamiliar, mollejas, also known as sweetbreads, is a type of organ meat. Specifically, the thymus and/or pancreas glands. It is slightly gamey, which when blended with bistek is nearly unnoticeable. It was an interesting combination of texture and flavor but more charred than I typically prefer. To balance the depth of the meat and charred-ness, I wish it were topped with fresh vegetables like minced onions and cilantro. Would I try this combination again, yes. From Vulcan, no. However, I am happy to have tried it for the first time. The restaurant was packed, and rightfully so. There is enough variety for all types of palettes but my heart is elsewhere when it comes to tacos.
