Detroit’s Best Mexican Restaurants | Eater Detroit
"Southwest Detroit is arguably the taco truck capital of the city, and one family headed by Nancy Diaz-Lopez and her husband Ramon Luis “Wicho” Diaz have been at the vanguard of that trajectory for close to two decades. Their fleet of mobile food trucks is set up throughout the neighborhood — with offerings ranging from mariscos, citrusy ceviche served on top of crispy tostadas, and chilled oysters from El Imperio to Mexican-style burgers, tacos al pastor, quesadillas, and other classics available at their other trucks. For more of a sit-down dining experience, head to the Eater Award-winning La Palapa del Parian, featuring much of the duo’s taqueria offerings, along with traditional specialties like pork short ribs in salsa verde and freshly made carnitas. A spacious bar designed to replicate a rustic cantina in the highlands of Jalisco features a variety of margaritas, palomas, Mexican beers, and nonalcoholic aguas frescas and bottled soda pops. This spot takes reservations and online ordering is available." - Serena Maria Daniels
