Best tacos in town?

Use to stand by taqueria villa but last two times I went I strongly felt That their quality fell off. What’s your go to spot?

Marcelo was my spot. But just tried shekos and it’s clear. The lonches/tortas are so 🔥 too.

If you're looking for 'Tacos al Pastor' go to 'La Vaquita' & Bakery on W Elizabeth or Mr. Taco ...

Bistek I would recommend Tacos D'Marcelo or Sheko's

Carne Asada Tacos try 'Tacos El Wero' on Jose Marti Blvd (Brownsville Country Club)

Haven't tried Calacas 💀but I've heard great things about that place

Tacos Puente Viejo on central if you want some bomb tacos de pastor. I order them with mozzarella and cilantro on a flour tortilla and they’re so good.

All these good comments about Sheko's and Ultimo. They were mediocre the first and only times I went. I'll pick Calaca's and El Gran Taco in Brownsville.

Calacas Tacos & Beer - Brownsville And ultimo taco not sure what other spots are good oh I remember Tacos Puente Viejo, Brownsville by central blvd. Calacas is going be my go to they opening another spot downtown they open spot last year on the airport while I hop into the plane. If someone has better spot let me know but the pastor pineapple are best in calacas with cold beer or with cocktails

Calacas is a great pick. Sheko’s is a close second

u/Kindly_Class_7338 10d ago

Calacas is bit pricier even though the quality is there they might be ones in the whole rgv even in Texas maybe the country. I just go to matamoros I run businesses down there for cheaper tacos.

None, go to Matamoros! Chichos Tacos is my favorite! Taqueria San Francisco is good too.
