"You probably already know that Orinoco hassome of the best tacos in town, but we’re including it on this list because you might not know they’re only $2 each. And yes, while you should definitely order a round of tacos al pastor, it’s the tacos de chicharrón with Monterrey-style fried pork rinds that keep us coming back again and again. They come topped with thin slices of avocado and are served with baby roasted potatoes and homemade salsas, and the chicharrón has a soft, tender interior and a perfectly seared exterior. They’re open until 3:30am or later seven days a week, but for the best experience, come by on a Friday or Saturday night after a few rounds of mezcal." - guillaume guevara
