It’s rare to find a more joyful lunch, dinner, or late-night meal than one eaten near a taco truck in a lot on 16th Street. Our favorites along this strip near 16th and Van Buren Street are La Frontera 1 and 3, and, up the street some, Tacos Y Mariscos El Sinaloa. As its name […]
Street food might be trending hard, but La Frontera Comida Mexicana has been around long before mobile eateries were cool. The stationary food truck can be found near the intersection of 16th Street and Van Buren serving Mexican fare and some of the city’s best Sonoran-style carne asada.

If you want Mexican fast food that’s slightly more authentic than Taco Bell, there’s a Filiberto’s ready to serve you in every part of town. But if you want cheap, convenient Mexican grub in a joint where practically everyone is speaking Spanish, you have to go somewhere a little less Americanized – like La Salsita. […]
La Santisima, formerly La Condessa Gourmet Taco Shop, has a pretty simple menu — tacos, corn quesadillas, and burros — although the flavors aren’t limited to Sonoran, like at many restaurants in these parts. There’s seafood from the coastal regions, Oaxacan black mole, Mexico City-style chicken tinga, and melt-in-your-mouth cochinita pibil from the Yucatán. Don’t […]
They threw in everything but the kitchen sink with La Tolteca, which is a bakery, restaurant, and market all in one. Whether you work or study nearby, have to stick to a budget, or simply like to explore ethnic cuisines, it’s a don’t-miss stop within a stonesthrow of downtown. Pick up some pan dulce from […]
