Haven't had tacos for a while, and decided to come since they had a Tuesday special for tacos that day.
Ambience is nice. It's the usual casual setting: dark, rowdy and cosy.
$3.50 for all and any type of tacos. We tried the trout tacos, pulled pork tacos and the shrimp taco. If you're not a fan of beans in your shrimp taco, you can ask to have them held and they will gladly do so.
The tacos themselves were pretty good. I like them better than la Carnita as these tacos at El Caballito don't break apart due to the sogginess from the sauces. I especially liked the trout and pulled pork tacos but a slight complaint that the quality of tacos vary depending on luck on how fresh the tacos are. We ordered 2 rounds of tacos... the second round was amazing and we could tell that they were freshly made. The trout was crispy and warm and the pulled pork was generously given. A sign of a good restaurant is that all items should come out the same.
We also tried the Chicharron. ($12.50) It's a plate of melted cheese with meat toppings with tortillas on the side. We opted for sausage as topping. This dish was good but only because its literally a pile of melted cheese and who doesn't like cheese? Essentially, its a cheese taco that you make yourself. I wouldn't get this again, and I don't recommend this dish at all.
Oh and be careful that they have two menus. One for indoors dining and one for outdoors dining. The outdoors menu contains Mexican street corn which if you google it, looks amazing. It's super silly that they have separate menus as I was really looking forward to the corn.
3.5/5. The tacos are good, so only come here for that. Come in the summer for the corn as well.
