Taqueria on Tenth
8.2
Upscale-casual Mexican in a saloon-styled space that balances comfort with a cocktail-bar edge. Flour-tortilla items and richer fillings (birria, barbacoa, huitlacoche) show the kitchen’s best technical control, while margaritas and palomas anchor the happy-hour crowd. A reliable choice for lingering small plates after work.
Must-Try Dishes:
Birria tacos with dipping broth, Carnitas tacos, Quesadilla huitlacoche
