Taqueria La Candelaria: Reviews & Ratings
Really good a huge authentic Mexican tacos! My favorite are los de asada. Their tortas are the biggest I have ever seen!
The Carnitas here are super good. I had the torta and man that thought that was huge and so good for a flavor. I would really highly recommend getting the tortoise from here. All the tortillas are handmade which is awesome. Even the tortillas for the quesadillas are handmade you could taste a good flavor. The tacos de cabeza was really good full of flavor- not everybody knows how to do tacos de cabeza me just say this place is good.. let me just tell you this when you come here you come for the food not the service don't expect five star service but if you treat them nice, they treat you nice!!!
Very small mexica restaurant, I ordered a spicy pork sandwich, was shocked when I opened the container, it's huge! And very tasty! Will definitely come back more often.
Wow. As a gringo, I've had a lot of tacos, Tex-Mex and authentic. These top the list hands down. Huge, full of great meat or veggie filings served with chopped cilantro, onions, and radish as well as some of the best red and green salsas I've had. The tacos are an absolute must. Carnitas and Bistek were my favorites but Pollo and Pastor were good too. Best Carnitas I've ever had. So much flavor. $2 each with a few filings bring $2.50. I should have only gotten three, they were so big. I also took a chance on the menudo, knowing it's a specialty only served on Sundays. Unfortunately I'm not a fan but if cow stomach is your thing, I bet you would love it. It came out with every order, while I waited. I will be back for sure!
Great authentic Mexican food. Not Tex-Mex. Menudo every Sunday. I like the goat meat, cabeza and spicy pork tacos. The menudo is good too. They also make their own tortillas. Have RTE many times.
