| - Is it possible to give 5 stars to a taqueria on my first visit? HELLZ YEAH!!!! We drove pass this place on our way to Taco Taco. After our A-OK visit, we back tracked and decided to give Taco Tijuana a go. Immediately as we step inside, The HOSTESS starts explaining the menu items to us...Cool!?
We step up to peruse the menu board, and the other two cooks start offering suggestions!? I'm thinking WOW, what service!? Any time I see an Al pastor/Adobada Carousel, that immediately becomes one taco choice, Don't forget to request it with pineapple! Another favorite of mine is crispity, crunchity tripas, so I request it extra crispy, along with a lengua. Wifey was quite stuffed from our previous stop, so she just got a cheese quesadilla.
The best way I can describe this set up is a condensed set up of El Gordo. They don't have a salsa bar, just limes and radishes but I'm sure they can hook you up with salsa upon request. The grilled chiles and scallions are complimentary which goes well with the tacos, and they're pretty generous with the meats here. The Lengua was topped with a salsa verde which was very soft, tender, and tasty. The Adobada was very flavorful and is way better than Gordo's IMO....The Tripa was served with salsa rojo and so perfectly crispy, that gave me the "Exorcist Effect"
(You know, where Linda Blair's eyes roll to the back of her head?) that's how great that first bite was, and I was happy to find my new favorite taco de tripa in town! Stellar service until the end-they delivered our order to us, got more napkins for us check on us periodically and even emptied our trays for us...absolutely some of the best service ever.Cannot wait to return!..... GET THE TRIPA TACO EXTRA CRISPY....YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!ALOHA!!!!
