Although it's been a while since I've been out to a new taco place for a review, I've definitely been a repeat customer this past month at a few places.I've had a lot of friends in town from various places, and they all wanted to eat a places I've reviewed! Most recently, I took a friend visiting from New Jersey out to Poncho Villa, and he loved it. Even though he didn't get the tacos. But I

If Endless Summer was the worst hip taco I've ever had, Calexico was certainly the best. The cart on Wooster and Prince was crowded today. I hear it's crowded every day but it was 90 degrees out! I was starting to get nervous. I didn't want a repeat of Endless Summer. Standing in line waiting for a sub par taco that would ultimately disappoint me. If I hadn't been set on reviewing these guys

Jarritos is having an art contest for their new slogan "Drink Out Loud." Submissions are due by June 30th. I can't draw but I love Jarritos and the artwork can be in any medium so I plan on putting something together even if it's just a photoshop of the bottle with hearts drawn around it. Let me know if any of you readers out there submit something. I'd love to see what you come up with. The

I'm going to begin by complaining. I'm tired. I am incredibly tired, so excuse me if this post doesn't exude the excitement that I want it to. Today was my first day off in ten days (which you probably know if you've talked to me any time today, because complaining feels good sometimes). Unfortunately I still had to attend a long, but important work meeting. It was a total bummer to my summer

There's a type of advertising that's supposed to be inflammatory to get you to notice it, but I don't think this is what Baja Fresh intended with their Times Square sign.Dammit, Baja Fresh, that's not even close to true! I know this is a taco blog so this is a little out of my jurisdiction but I was so enraged by this ad that I had to take up the cause. I think there's a place for Baja Fresh,

For a city as big as New York, it's pretty easy to pick out the good places to eat. You hear about them, A LOT. It's seems like everybody mentions the same handful of places when you ask for somewhere to eat and usually it's with good reason. I've been continually impressed how even the most hyped up places will live up to their name. It's been especially helpful for writing this blog because

This past Thursday NYC Food Crawl hosted a taco crawl in Manhattan that I was fortunate enough to attend. My original plan was to write this post directly after the crawl, but I was in a taco coma afterward, so I haven't been able to write it till now. My friend Robyn and I arrived at Astor Place at 7pm to a crowd of hungry taco fans.There was a little confusion at first as two ladies tried

One of the problems with being a major taco fan is that all of the merchandise is so crappy. I mean seriously, what the hell is this?In fact, the only taco related item I own is this key cap set:That's why I was so excited to see this set of cards and prints from Etsy seller 33 Stewart Avenue. They're exactly what the taco world needs. Classy, tasteful, understated. For the taco connoisseur who

Maybe I suffer from a little bit of xenophobia, or maybe it's because I have a terrible fear of doing something for the first time and looking like a total goon, but I've walked by this Mexican market on Nicollet a bajillion times, and have never gone in.The other day, during my constant questioning of coworkers and customers about the various hidden location for exceptional tacos, I was informed

Okay, there have been a lot of brackets going around since March Madness. I haven't been interested in any of them till now. LA Taco has made their own bracket with the best tacos in LA. We here at All the Tacos need to get on this. Maybe next year when we have enough entries to rank. For now I'll be using this list next time I make a trip out to LA. I wonder how many I could get through in

Lately I haven't been feeling well. I think it's the change of the seasons, or a cold, or allergies. No matter what the cause, all symptoms can usually be cured by a nap and some tacos, which is exactly how I self-medicated today.I have been a little at a loss about where to get some good tacos in this city, so I've been asking around. The chick I got my haircut from last week suggested Little

Midtown New York is terrible as far as getting a good taco goes. If the Northeast in general is a taco wasteland than Midtown is it's epicenter. There's a glut of Chipotles, Qdobas and Baja Freshes which are fine if I'm looking for something quick and gigantic and fake tasting (which I sometimes am) and there's some Tortilla Express type hole-in-the-wall type places whose signs make me sick

It was the perfect day off. It was the kind of day where the sun was shining, and someone suggested getting drinks in the early afternoon. The sort of day where you find yourself half in the bag at 1:30 in the afternoon, and the next obvious decision is to go get tacos and margaritas.Absolutely wonderful.This time, I didn't have to walk further than a few blocks, to Pancho Villa, right on

I don't know how many words this post is going to contain because the english language hasn't invented words strong enough to express my feelings for this place. Basically, if Taqueria didn't exist I would die (or move to California). It is that good. I would go here daily if I had no concern for my health or wallet. As it is, I still make it here at least once a week in the summer. I

Let me preface this post by saying this blog doesn't discriminate. There is plenty of room for all types of taco love. Of course I would rather be eating authentic tacos all the time, but that's not always possible and for those times there's Trader Joe's Mini Tacos.These don't resemble anything close to a taco. Okay, there's meat filling and something like a tortilla shell folded in half, but

Since I just moved to Minneapolis, I haven't enjoyed much of the Mexican fare that the Midwest has to offer. Except for Chipotle.You're probably not going to like what I say next, especially if you are a taco purist, but I freaking love Chipotle. I've eaten Chipotle here in Minneapolis. A lot of it. One chain-restaurant taco at a time. There are two of them here, and they just happen to not
