Mexican restaurants, tacos, mezcal, and Latin food shops
Taco alert. This is where we keep all of it together: the sit-down rooms and the order-at-the-counter joints, the burritos and the mezcal cocktails, Maiiz pressing tortillas from fresh masa, and the Latin grocers like Craigflower Foods where you can chase down the ingredients yourself.
We tie our current pick to a stack of archive stories — Tacofino, Cafe Mexico, Mi Mexican, Cinco de Mayo roundups, and the casual-meal coverage around it. It's editorial, not a directory, so treat it as a starting point.
Hours and menus shift, so give a place a quick look before you go. And if the night drifts, our casual restaurants, lunch, and happy hour guides are right next door.
- Tacos, mezcal, Latin grocers, and Cinco de Mayo coverage
- Good for casual meals, takeout, drinks, and seasonal plans
- Tied to our existing Tasting Victoria archive
- Clear context for menus and events that come and go
