Al principio todo delicioso, ayer fui a cenar y me encontré con la sorpresa que sus tostadas no son las mismas. Ya no son tatemadas ahora usan tostadas para ceviche lo cual que cambia el sabor a sus tostadas. Para ser una Guia Micheline y esten usando ese tipo de tostadas nomas No! 

Business response:

Estimado. Nuestras tostadas no son para ceviche. Nosotros mismos las hacemos. Las hacemos con manteca de res. El día que guste le muestro.

I read this was Michelin Guide recommended so had to try it. I really struggled with giving it 4 stars over 5 as it was really close. I think now that I know exactly what I like here, next time the visit will be 5 stars. My favorite item of the night- campechano taco (tripe & grilled steak). It was so flavorful and juicy but not overly wet/sauced. I also really loved lengua (the meat) but felt my lengua quesadilla overall was too wet and did not have enough cheese. The carne asada taco and adobada tacos were good but I did... read more

I was thinking 3.5 but rounding up to 4 stars because TACOS. I waited a minute before checking them out. Dined on a Friday afternoon and were seated immediately. We sat at the bar and ordered our tacos. The staff is very helpful and friendly and the space is large with various areas for seating. I had the: All tacos ordered with everything. Tacos de Lengua: Delicious amazing, perfect tender lengua, with the right small double tortillas. A little heavy on the sauce, thankfully it's not spicy. Carne Asada: ok, like... read more

Food: Carne Asada Taco - a bit salty and didn't have that really smokey taste and smell to it. it was somewhat missing flavor to the meat? it also had beans! it wasn't bad it was still decent but i've definitely had better. Adobada Taco - also missing some flavor to the meat but still a decent taco and soft tortilla Mixita Fries (Carne Asada + Adobada) - loved the crispy fries. it had lots of potato and was made perfectly. the asada had some smokey meat peaces which i liked. the adobada was decent with it. the sauces and ... read more

Food tasty. Ordered 1 mulita and it was enough to share it. Lots of carne asada meat , cheese , and guacamole, all the fixings and wonderful tasting corn tortillas. Service needs help or better system for to go orders. The hostess took our order to go, and she didn't check the kitchen or behind her when the waiter set our order on shelf behind her. We assumed she ignored it because it was a door dash order section , but we stood there and iour order sat there. Until we asked where our food was after waiting for 15 -20mins ... read more

this place tops EVERY taco place i've ever had. they do not play with the tacos and load them up. the fries were the BEST asada fries and i dream about them; they're crunchy and soft in the middle i would say i wish they added more crema other than that still fire. the only thing they need to add is a to go bc it's a dine in only. other than that 100/10. 

Business response:

Hi, Mara. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

I love that they are on this side now. It was a solid taco. Nothing explosive about it but it was solid. Service was good, ambiance was typical taco shop. My tripas wasnt crunchy like i like, they add beans if you ask con todo which i think code for less meat. 

Business response:

Hi Simore. Thank you for coming to TEF. Please be sure to tell your waiter/waitress if you would like your tripe extra crispy. We do not add beans on any taco other than Asada. That has been our recipe for 50 years. Clients are welcome to request their Carne Asada taco with no beans. Thanks again! Hopefully we get it perfect on round 2. Hope we see you again.
