El Taco De Mexico

Our next stop on the February "Taco Tour" was at El Taco De Mexico down on Santa Fe in Denver.  A very quaint, small place on the inside, with a really large kitchen/cooking area. Since we were there for tacos, that is the portion of the menu we studied. They have 7 options for your protein (meat) in their tacos.  Cheeksmeat (cabeza), Beef Steak (azada), Tongue (lengua), Fried Pork (carnitas), Suadero (soft meat between the belly and the leg), Pastor (marinated pork) and Buche (pork tripe).  I ordered the cabaza, carnitas and azada.

My three tacos with rice and beans

When our order was ready, they called our order out and picked them up at the counter.  Along with the tacos, came some fantastic refried beans and rice....and unexpected pleasure.  The beans were creamy and just delicious. The tacos were on two soft, warm corn tortillas and had onions, cilantro and a little red sauce.....and they needed nothing else.....just perfect.

Along with a booths, and some outdoor patio tables (great for spring and summer), they have bar stools where you can sit and eat while watching them prepare the food.

As fast paced as the orders were coming in, the kitchen was incredibly clean and well organized, making it very easy for them to move around in.

The kitchen area.

El Taco De Mexico is definitely the real deal when it comes to authentic Mexican style street tacos.
