"Sandwiched between a Domino’s and a 7-Eleven off a busy stretch of Greenwood Lane in the Lake Highlands, Resident Taqueria is fast-casual as it was meant to be: sensational food served lightning fast. Grab a seat on the patio or perch at the bar to watch the cook on the flat top, and start with the stretchy cheese fundido served in personal-sized cast-iron pans. The menu changes monthly, and the tacos range from classic to quirky, like the Duck, Duck, Quail: duck confit and duck foie gras, draped with a sunny-side-up duck egg. Other past features have included paneer and escargot, and on a recent visit, shredded beef tongue was given a pickly pastrami treatment. Important: Margaritas are available to go by the gallon." - rosin saez, nick rallo, kevin gray, kevin gray, kevin gray, rosin saez, nick rallo, nick rallo, rosin saez, rosin saez, nick rallo, rosin saez, nick rallo, nick rallo, rosin saez, nick rallo, rosin saez, rosin saez, nick rallo, rosin saez, rosin saez, nick rallo, nick rallo, rosin saez, nick rallo, rosin saez, nick rallo
"Looking for something that is not the typical taco joint? Over in Lake Highlands, this taqueria offers cheffy takes on the taco, with options like pecan smoked chicken, house-made chorizo, and caramelized cauliflower. The Brussels sprouts and duck breast options are noteworthy. Throw in a side of the garlicky pinto beans just because and one of the daily aqua fresca flavors. This tiny spot has limited seating, with just as much room on the outside as on the inside." - Courtney E. Smith
"Taco Tuesday is an unimpeachable proposal for a first date. Go to Resident Taqueria, especially if your date has some dining restrictions — it is known for its cauliflower and Brussels sprout tacos, which are both vegetarian-friendly. The spot also brews up a selection of daily aqua frescas and margaritas and offers seasonal food specials. Most folks opt to sit outside on the tiny patio and dine al fresco, but there are tables inside, too. Parking is free in the surrounding lot." - Rachel Pinn
