"No taco exploration is complete without a stop at this old-school taqueria that’s respected on both sides of the border. The taco institution started in Tijuana before branching out to Chula Vista, the Gaslamp Quarter, and Las Vegas. The bustling late-night shop offers tasty tacos stuffed with adobada, carne asada, cabeza, or suadero." - Helen I. Hwang
