| - This is the place where everyone in here is Mexican, and the guy who takes your order does not speak any English, when I asked him what were regular customers' favorite items to order. He had to get a customer out of his seat to translate for me. These are signs of truly authentic Mexican food.
Eating buddy told me about this place, said she read about it in New Times. Kinda hard to find your way when coming from the eastside, being that the fwy and "wall" is in the way, and the entrance to 16th Street from McDowelll says "no right turn", cos it is one-way for a few feet there.
I picked pastor (pork) meat, Cabeza (head meat), and lengua (tongue) for my first round, all with onions, and cilantro on them. The tacos all tasted pretty much the same when you put the salsas on, but they were GOOD! One think I do not like at all, is that the salsa in the salsa bar is SOOOO COLD, the salsa in there was bordering forming ice crystals. It is like putting ice in your tacos, the meat was hot, but I want to keep the meat that way, when I eat it.
I liked my tacos so much, that after my square dance ended, I knew Tacos Huicho was open till 11 and I came back to have three more tacos. Tripa, Longaniza (chorizo), and carne asada. I could not tell the tripa was tripa, but they assured me it was. Out of the six meats, I decided Longaniza was my favorite and most flavorful. Another Yelper was right tho, it was very greasy, and the orange grease puddled several times in my plate as I bit into the little thing. Next time I go, I will order Longaniza in a burrito. Oh boy, lotsa grease.
I give the food 5 stars, but the dirty and torn up seats, dirty tables, and food particles and Coke spills on the floor 1 star. Seemed like more than 50% of the chairs, which had black pads, had major corners missing, showing white stuffing, and MANY had big canyons opened up in them that the stuffing had been excavated by butts sitting in them, over time. Made me think, wow, do they make so little money that they can't at least buy cushions to cover the canyons, or replace with white resin yard chairs?
There were food particles all over the tables and floor, and before I sat down there were spills of Coke right at my feet, large spills, so I put napkins over them. Don't wanna walk out with sticky soles.
But since the food is good and cheap enough to come back, again and again, despite 1 star for "dirty and pathetically ripped chairs and food particles and spills throughout", I will be generous and give my review 4 stars, one star for being open till 11, too, so I could go eat there AFTER square dancing ends at 9:30 pm.
