Venue; Taquería
Insurgentes isn’t just a taco bar—it’s the taquería in Bogotá. Walk in and you’ll instantly feel the energy: a buzzing old house transformed into a taco haven, with music, chatter, and sizzling tortillas filling every corner. And yes Gringos welcome lol
The tacos? Next level. From al pastor that melts in your mouth to birria that demands a second round, and even vegetarian gems like aguacate Ensenada, there’s no wrong choice. Share the Taquiza Insurgentes (eight tacos, costras, esquites, and guac) and suddenly your table is the happiest corner in Chapinero.
The drinks are just as impressive—mezcal cocktails, cold cervezas, and cheladas that somehow make Spanish roll off the tongue smoother.
Downstairs is cozy; upstairs is pure energy. Yes, they take reservations—but honestly, showing up and diving into the bustle is half the fun.
I’ve already been four times, and each visit reminds me why: the tacos keep calling me back.
