12 Best Taco Stops in Durham, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas

"Located on the side corner of the carniceria of the same name, Don Becerra Taqueria (aka Taqueria La Becerrita), offers a menu similar to its other North Roxboro Street neighbors, with a few notable exceptions. The nopales (a type of cactus) tacos come in a spicy and wonderfully tangy green sauce and the chicharron tacos highlight perfectly tender, melt-in-your-mouth pork skin." - Matt Lardie

Small tacqueria with great food. The red sauce is awesome! I got three tacos for under ten dollars. It's hard to beat that lunch deal. If I lived here I'd be going back all the time. I think the chorizo was my favorite of the three varieties I tried. I also had the al pastor and carne asada. All very good. All the other plates looked amazing too, especially a fried whole fish.

The food was alright, it wasn't nasty or nothing to brag about. Not much seating at all. I wish I taken photos but I forgot. I may visit again and try something different. The food did come fast, I didn't have to wait a long time like other restaurants.

Best place for original/ authentic tacos and sopes. This is an unassuming little place, but don't let that fool you. You will have real Mexican food at a very good price. The salsas are all made in house , fresh and delicious. These ladies treat you like family.

We have been hesitant to write this review because we love this place so much and we are scared we will have to wait longer for these delicious tacos! Durham is secretly a small hub for authentic and delicious street tacos. There a dozens of taco trucks and small taquerias speckled around the city. We have tried many and have come the conclusion that Don Becerra is at the top of the list! They do offer other menu items, but we love the tacos too much to venture away. These are traditional tacos consisting of homemade fresh tortillas, the most flavorful, saucy, and juicy meats, cilantro, onion, and a lime wedge on the side. They are perfection. Our favorites in no particular order are al pastor, campechano, lengua, and birria. 10/10 would recommend but keep it on the DL.
