Spice level warning — Tacos is not what I expected
I underestimated Tacos. The deeply aromatic description didn't prepare me for the reality. tomatillo brings a heat or pungency that builds steadily rather than hitting upfront. By halfway through I was sweating but couldn't stop eating.
Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The a street taco stand setting means locals eat this with ease while visitors like me reach for water. mezcal cut through it better than water would have. Don't order the mild version out of caution — the full version is the point. I'd go back. Three stars only because I wasn't warned.
