Taqueria Don Tacho

About this place

Taqueria Don Tacho is a family-run taqueria at 614 N H St whose tagline is "Los clásicos tacos al pastor." On its website, Mama Angelica and Papa Don Tacho say they cook traditional recipes passed down from their grandparents, with signature dishes including shrimp ceviche, alambre and the gringa de trompo, plus por-libra (by the pound) meats. The menu runs from pastor, asada, carnitas, buche and chorizo tacos to burritos, tortas, huaraches, sopes, pambazo, seafood cocktails like aguachile, chilaquiles, micheladas, aguas frescas, a kids menu and desserts. The shop is open seven days a week, with later hours on Friday and Saturday nights, and takes online orders at taqueriadontacho.net; walk-ins are welcome. The storefront’s mascot “Tachito,” a cartoon trompo, marks the red-and-green building just north of downtown, where the window banner advertises the Taco Special in pastor, asada, carnitas and buche.
