I was in this part of town picking out flooring and needed a quick lunch and didn't know where to go an YELP saved the day again! We didn't know to expect that it's really more like a butcher/deli with no seating than a counter service taco place. But when we walked in we were greeted with big smiles. The butcher counter takes up most of the place and then on the back wall there's an understated menu of pictures of cooked meat which is pollo asado, carnitas, barbacoa beef and maybe 1 other option. You can buy the tortillas and meat by the pound whatever weight you want, so we got 1/2 lb barbacoa and 1/2 lb chicken and 8 tortillas, a Sprite and some Arbol salsa all for $13. Who cares if we have to eat in our car for that?!
So we unwrapped our goodies and the pollo was fall off the [thigh] bone moist and tender and i pulled it apart and made myself some tacos on the softest, moistest tortilla I've ever had (and I've had a lot of tortillas). Forget ever buying another store-bought packaged tortilla. It is totally worth going to this Tortilleria. They are so light and fluffy it's like you're on a cloud. The arbol salsa was perfect with the chicken. Hubs loved the barbacoa too and was psyched to go back and try the carnitas.
I am very excited to find this place and look forward to going again especially when the ridiculous construction along N Tryon lets up.
