This is why VERACRUZ is the most stand out guys of all the states in Mexico Not only do we focus on Quality but quantity ' . If you ever get the chance to visit rest assure you will be satisfied with our cuisines and the prices at times can seem such a steal also our people seem to have that southern hospitality (Currently living in the states SC to be exact) Veracruz also offers you a variety of sites out the norm wether it' deserts mountains Snow Old villages still intact with ruins Pyramids Beaufort architecture Mexican caribbean beaches Friendly faces and numerous other reasons to go ahead and add to your flight list ' .
I’ve lived two blocks away from this place for 26 years, had them many times before and after getting the Michelin star. They are good, very simple, but very good, “less is more” is how I would describe them because they don’t need other ingredients to stand out such as cebolla, cilantro or piña like a Pastor taco. The Gaona meat taco which is their star item uses really good quality meat, and the tortillas are hand made on the spot. They add a little salt to the meat and that’s it. The green salsa is meh but the red one is great (it was better before the taco place became so popular among foreigners and they definitely made it less spicy but it’s still tasty). The other tacos are good too but I personally only go for the Gaonera tacos.
Los Angeles street tacos are now like $2 each too but they're absolutely stacked with salsa verde, onions, pico, and radishes/cilantro. Plus the meat is way better, at least from thie image.
As a good Mexican, I will speak for the majority when I say that they are the most generic tacos I have ever tried. Honestly there are many better ones. It's just that you can sell something with an extraordinary name to many mexas and they will believe that it is the best.
I’m Mexican and how do they have a star? I grew up in Albuquerque with great tacos but the best tacos I’ve ever had were actually in fact in Lakewood, Ohio right down the road from Cleveland. It’s called La Plaza, it’s a taco place attached to the Hispanic grocery store. Man you have to try those and I give you my word you’ll rank them a 9 or 10.
As soon as I saw the meat on the grill at the beginning of the video I knew these weren’t real street tacos from Mex😂 don’t go here thinking this is the Mexican food that people like so much
@@themessenger2356then Mexico city is a loat cause to the rrst of the country. Go to literally any other state, no matter how dangerous is, and try a real taco, not this tourist/whitexican trap
Idk man in my state it’s hard asf to even find tacos at more than 25 pesos, unless the tacos are gigantic, but most fire tacos here are in the 15-19 pesos range, above that your on some Fifi shit that ain’t worth it (unless the tacos are big as i said)
I have a taco truck near me that does 4 for $6 and 6 for $9 deals on tacos, much bigger and you can pick the toppings you want. I don’t even consider these tacos.

Why calling someone who works his ass off, probably 10+ hours a day, a brainrot? Probably he doesn't really even care about the star but now has to feed some gringos from Brooklyn
I suspect they only have 4 options and 2 salsas because it looks like everything is made from scratch. Also, im not mexican but if my info is correct, tacos are traditionally working man food made simple, quick, easy; you can eat them with your hands and very filling. So, no, traditional tacos arent particularly fancy because working class people arent going to have access to 15 different salsas, cheeses and crisp fresh lettuce and tomatos, sour cream etc. Ill bet its better than that slop they serve at Taco Bell

This is why you don’t let a fkn tire company determine who’s food is the best🤦♂️
Dog🤦 now way I just read that correctly
@@dokkanclout2811 what part are you confused about?
@@dokkanclout2811 were you not aware that the "Michelin" in "Michelin Star" comes from the Michelin tire company? They started it to tell people "these are the places worth driving to while you're using our tires". I'm paraphrasing.
Lmaoooo ain’t no way you think Michelin tires has anything to do with that
@@Panzas00769 that’s where Michelin stars come from bud
The guy that gave them a Michelin star probably never tried tacos before
so what's the reason they were given a michelin star?
Tijuana... Tijuana has majestic tacos, every taco establishment in Tijuana deserves a Michelin star
especially the ones that have the fresh tortillas that have been fried just SLIGHTLY for that nice crunch
You gotta come to progreso Mexico and try lonches. Shit will change your life lol I say this as someone who grew up in SD and went to Tj often lol
Tas loco
I've had 3 am tacos de birria with a styrofoam cup of consomé in Tijuana and they were some of the best tacos I've had in my life. With the side benefit of helping me continue partying until sunrise
They just be throwing out stars like they candy now a days 😭
id be expecting a crowd cussin out, "WHERE TF THE ONIONS, CILANTRO"
25 pesos for taco? In Jalisco Los tacos son de Como 7 a 15
This is in the capital of Mexico. Shit's obviously gonna be more expensive there.
Es un buen precio
@@godspeed4458not really only in Polanco
I know like 5 spots within 10 miles of me that hand make the masa for tortillas everyday . I need to be one of these michelin guide fuckers.
Appreciate the honesty.
Easily the best tacos I had in CDMX were from a family with a very large canopy setup we’re in Alvaro Obregón in the Lomas de Santa Fe
A piece of stake in a tortilla doesn’t give you a Michelin star, that is the laziest taco i ever seen
Steak* a "stake" is the thing you use to take out a Vampire/a short wooden pole that's been sharpened and is used to mark out an area, show the border of a fence or hold up a plant 😂
Bro can’t spell steak
@fov110 it blows my mind that your mother forgot to swallow the night you were conceived.
@@SpiritStoneWarrior94-yx3gsCouldn't have been a typo or autocorrect changing a word incorrectly. He's obviously an idiot who doesn't know the difference. Thank you for educating him😂
@fov110 But he's not wrong tho? People get their panties in a twist about learning, how are you gonna learn something new?
Everyone knows the food truck on the side or the road is going to be the best tacos you can get until 6 months later when you find another truck
Unis taquitos de asada with only salsa actually hits hella hard...
But you can ask foebthat anywhere for cheaper and no long wait times.
Euther way.... FELICIDADES CALIFA DE LEON!!
My boi got on the Belgian army camp print
Michelin trolled em again
Michelin the ultimate trolls Fr 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's why you shouldn't trust the Michelin guide
This is why VERACRUZ is the most stand out guys of all the states in Mexico Not only do we focus on Quality but quantity ' . If you ever get the chance to visit rest assure you will be satisfied with our cuisines and the prices at times can seem such a steal also our people seem to have that southern hospitality (Currently living in the states SC to be exact) Veracruz also offers you a variety of sites out the norm wether it' deserts mountains Snow Old villages still intact with ruins Pyramids Beaufort architecture Mexican caribbean beaches Friendly faces and numerous other reasons to go ahead and add to your flight list ' .
On my list
Are you secretly advertising your taco shop🤔
@@Basedapple lol Good one bruv I'm actually in sales so it just sticks 😆
@@exitttlife good luck with the taco shop homie 💪🏻
I’ve lived two blocks away from this place for 26 years, had them many times before and after getting the Michelin star. They are good, very simple, but very good, “less is more” is how I would describe them because they don’t need other ingredients to stand out such as cebolla, cilantro or piña like a Pastor taco.
The Gaona meat taco which is their star item uses really good quality meat, and the tortillas are hand made on the spot. They add a little salt to the meat and that’s it. The green salsa is meh but the red one is great (it was better before the taco place became so popular among foreigners and they definitely made it less spicy but it’s still tasty). The other tacos are good too but I personally only go for the Gaonera tacos.
Los Angeles street tacos are now like $2 each too but they're absolutely stacked with salsa verde, onions, pico, and radishes/cilantro. Plus the meat is way better, at least from thie image.
its a gaonera
Story going around is that the star was meant for a restaurant with a similar name lol
Yeah when I heard about this and saw the pictures of the tacos I was like, “nah”
I live in Morelos and here there's a tacobplace that opens at night and have the best tacos. And its at a bus station
They hand out stars now
They always have in Europe this is probably no different
Ni el bistec pican y segun tiene estrella michelin JAJAJAJAJA
Para mi que sólo imprimieron una imagen de un estrella Michelin y dijeron que tenían una XD
As a good Mexican, I will speak for the majority when I say that they are the most generic tacos I have ever tried. Honestly there are many better ones.
It's just that you can sell something with an extraordinary name to many mexas and they will believe that it is the best.
The Michelin star dude maybe had some great night with the ladies at La Merced and was drunk when he visited that spot 😂😂😂😢😢😂😂😅
Wild. Come to San Antonio
For what? $5 dollars tacos? lmaooo 😂
@@leredditcommander8208$7 tacos with ingredients from Wal-Mart.
Shit come to riverside we like 3 hours away from the border at least you can get decent shit for cheap out here
note: Michelin is about high quality ingredients for them to get a star, cheap 25 pesos tacos are cheap meat
but do you really think those were the same prices before the michelen star? doubted
youre trippin if you think those look bomb
@@daltontarrance3077 never said that it’s about the quality of the ingredients not the actual dish
You sound real ignorant high expensive food doesn’t mean great quality
You sound real ignorant high expensive food doesn’t mean great quality
I’m Mexican and how do they have a star? I grew up in Albuquerque with great tacos but the best tacos I’ve ever had were actually in fact in Lakewood, Ohio right down the road from Cleveland. It’s called La Plaza, it’s a taco place attached to the Hispanic grocery store. Man you have to try those and I give you my word you’ll rank them a 9 or 10.
The best tacos always come from a restaurant that's inside of a Hispanic grocery store
Bro added one drop of salsa . 😂
As soon as I saw the meat on the grill at the beginning of the video I knew these weren’t real street tacos from Mex😂 don’t go here thinking this is the Mexican food that people like so much
That’s what most tacos in CDMX look like
The chef was raised in L.A., Martin Luther Jordan
@@themessenger2356then Mexico city is a loat cause to the rrst of the country. Go to literally any other state, no matter how dangerous is, and try a real taco, not this tourist/whitexican trap
@@themessenger2356no
@@themessenger2356they suck
Good for them. They been crushing with out much recognition for over 50 years.
Normally 35 pesos per taco I lived there for most of 2023. Very hard to find good tacos for 25 pesos. $2.82 USD isn't bad for M star tacos. Lol
I bet my local taco truck is better than that 💩. Local taco $3, and over flowing meat. All the fix’ ins
@@andrews3523what state u in?
I make better tacos. They can keep theirs lol
Idk man in my state it’s hard asf to even find tacos at more than 25 pesos, unless the tacos are gigantic, but most fire tacos here are in the 15-19 pesos range, above that your on some Fifi shit that ain’t worth it (unless the tacos are big as i said)
I have a taco truck near me that does 4 for $6 and 6 for $9 deals on tacos, much bigger and you can pick the toppings you want. I don’t even consider these tacos.
I know its messed up but desperate victim sounds so funny 😂
The gaunera was the one that got the Michelin star. I don’t think you tried it
the restaurant got the star, the Gaonera is on the guide. They dont give stars for 1 menu item.
he's right, you didn't get the actual taco that was highlighted in the guide?! fucked up.....lol also, its priced at 5 cuase business is good..and deman is good....man you know nothing ...
@@villadavid164why are you seething over something that he’s not talking complaining about?
Yeah, I guess that's what happened in this case. They probably gave if for one item.@@danielromeohh
@@villadavid164 nah hes not.... michelin stars arent given for 1 item whether highlighted or not. This isnt a review. Learn what a michelin star is first before ya speak... its you who has no clue.
No Guacamole, cucumbers, onion, cilantro, raddish, al pastor, flour tortillas, and beans is a disgrace to Mexico.
The Cartel should do something about this.
tell them that they hate goku, should defg take attention in 2 minutes
its called a gaonera taco
This was just handed out so the Michelin inspectors don’t seem racist. Did the same thing with the Asian street vendor a few years back.
The Asian street vendor was genuinely good though. Anyways this guy probably just started pumping out crappy food because they can't take his Michelin star for a full year. In that time he probably makes enough to retire.
Looks like something I'd whip up in the kitchen after all the good food is gone
Thank 👍🏿 you for being honest!
Rosa parks was a white redbone
the local taco joint where my family lives in B.C. you can get at least 4 tacos, loaded with toppings, for a little over 50 pesos
You're the type that loves pineapple and chocolate on your pizza
God bless the Mexicans for gifting the world their cuisine. Thai and Mexico are the tops. Love the heat!
No, Mexico and the middle east are the best cuisines 😎
@@leredditcommander8208nah keep your mush sandy
Finally an honest food review
Lmfao brainrot really got people buying barely seasoned fried beef cuts with no additional toppings except a lime wedge HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHA
This is how they were originally made. The topping craze is an American thing.
Something’s happen to be infinity more complex within their simplicity. The local tradition and ingredients make the food extraordinary
@@WOLF10139so you’re saying we vastly improved your food? Because you can’t tell me just dry meat in a tortilla is better than Tex mex style.
@@WOLF10139 What mexican taco doesnt have cilantro and onions?! I guess we could all just call everything "og" that has nothing on it.... "This is caveman og... its a half cooked dinosaur made on a ground fire with no seasonings!"..... Like wtf are you even talking ab?!
Why calling someone who works his ass off, probably 10+ hours a day, a brainrot? Probably he doesn't really even care about the star but now has to feed some gringos from Brooklyn
Taco Bell looks better . Kidding . Those look good but damn
They are not good
No Taco Bell literally does look better. These are the saddest tacos I’ve ever seen, I don’t care how authentic they are
Why not get the Michelin Star rated taco 😢. 4 options and you avoided the awarded one
Michelin don’t award stars to single dishes, it’s for the entire restaurant. And this clearly doesn’t warrant a star
So the Michelin star taco would be the one with the toppings? Because I'm sure the meat is the same.
Because these RUclipsrs are morons that don’t do their research before traveling somewhere to eat and make a video.
Cartel connections got him that michelin star
I want toppings….
that looks so disappointing
I suspect they only have 4 options and 2 salsas because it looks like everything is made from scratch. Also, im not mexican but if my info is correct, tacos are traditionally working man food made simple, quick, easy; you can eat them with your hands and very filling. So, no, traditional tacos arent particularly fancy because working class people arent going to have access to 15 different salsas, cheeses and crisp fresh lettuce and tomatos, sour cream etc. Ill bet its better than that slop they serve at Taco Bell
You better come to Mexicali BCN the tacos are really good with guacamole different kimd of salsas , cebollitas ,rabanos , repollo etc
