"Watching the cooks prepare their legendary braised tacos through the window while waiting in line is an exquisite sort of torture. But once you’ve ordered and snagged a table in the bright, art-filled dining room or outside on the patio, you’ll be smiling like everyone else who’s happy to be eating what have become some the city’s most beloved tacos. The tortillas alone are worth the wait: thick, chewy, and made with locally produced masa, they’re a hearty base for the deeply flavored tacos. The chicharrón is stewed in a perfectly balanced green chile sauce, and the mole is nutty and complex." - Hugh Garvey
