Tacos Joven - Tacos en canasta

We came here for one reason - chicharrone tacos. When our server reached into the basket, I could not have imagined that he would pull out the greasiest, fattiest, and one of the tastiest tacos we’ve ever had. I need to hammer home how greasy these were. They put to shame any double cheeseburger, any loaded chili cheese fries, any fried chicken that you could possibly conceive of. These are near weapons-grade tacos. I could feel my arteries hardening and my poor stomach bracing for impact as I stuffed these extraordinary tacos into my mouth, because how could I stop? With that texture, mostly fat with some crisp edges, and just enough taste contrast from bite to bite, these are the heaviest thing I’ve ever enjoyed. I would perfectly understand if someone thought they were disgusting, and honestly I think going here once was enough. But as far as a unique taco experience, this is one for the ages. Highly recommended.

I was really excited to taste these tacos, staff was very kind and helpful but to me the tacos were a little salty, the salsas look great but they weren't spicy at all, the salsa with chicharron was acceptable, but not amazing as I expected, the place is a little dark, maybe even kinda creepy. Unfortunately I think I would prefer somewhere else, it is not bad but not as delicious as I imagined. But the experience was worth it and the staff was great.

The tacos were very good but that chicharrón salsa was absolutely delicious! I think I would go back just to get some more of that stuff! Buen Hecho Compas!

Salsa with chicharon was excellent, desebrada tacos good, but the best were the mole verde

Lived in Mexico City for 11 years and I have had maaaaany tacos de canasta - this ones however, are head and shoulders above the rest. The flavors are delicious! Can't go wrong with any choice, but I would recommend the chicharron, for sure. Fantastic service and an incredible value. I was full with 3 of them, but I ended up having 5 - couldn't pass up the chance.

El cielo de los tacos/Taco Heaven! Great typical tacos in a little crowded place at a great price and with great service. The salsas aren't really hot by Mexican standards. I recommend the chicharrón (pork skin), deshebrada (pulled meat) and mole verde. Yum!

Delicious food. Excellent spot if you want a taste of the authentic CDMX food experience.

Amazing and big tacos de canasta with the unique and famous salsa de chicharrón. A must try if you are in the neighborhood. Great price for the size and I loved all the different fillings.
