    So many good places left out. Didn't realize how many good taco places we had in El Paso until I saw this video and thought "where is El Taquero Comer, Tacos el Charly, Los tragones" lol. Part 2 definitely has to be made.

    Not sure why this came up on my CZcams feed but loved this. Thank you for sharing. I left El Paso over 30 years ago and moved to Vegas. We have some good tacos here but I'd love to try these places. One of my favorites is Rafas burritos. Oh how I miss those!

    TacoNeta has the most amazing fish tacos that I have ever tried in my life. I hate cabbage but the way that they make everything so fresh is the best part. A little expensive for one taco but the experience is well worth it. Baja Fish everyone has got to try

    Born and raised in El Paso, moved to Denver, Colorado. I noticed that the tacos you showed on this video are like the Americanized tacos you find here in Denver. Need to get out of downtown El Paso and go to the suburbs and you will find real tacos.
    Plus, you forgot Tacos Charlys, Tacotote and last but the best Chico's Tacos!

    There are SOOOOOOO many Mom and Pop's authentic Mexican resturaunts in El Paso, you really can't go wrong with any of them. My favorite, basically because it's close to me, is Lucy's. It's in the same building as King's X Bar and pool hall, on North Mesa, south of Executive. There are several places right in the downtown area if you don't want to venture up the West Side.

    LA specifically East LA... They got taco stands! Not taco restaurants not taco trucks but stands with the Al pastor rotating from a skewer as it's being charbroiled. Right next to those stands you have a churro STAND or agua fresca. Everything is quick, convenient, price was cheap but everything has gone up but still reasonable.

    Why are tacos in El Paso so great and diversified?
    Mexico is a stone's throw away. We have people from all parts of Mexico coming through El Paso and most of them spend some time getting ready for the next part of their journey. That means they will need jobs for a few months, maybe a couple of years and some, just decide they are happy in El Paso and stay for a few generations.

      But please continue to drop your negative comments. It keeps us entertained and we just wonder why you hate us so much. We don’t really care, but do wonder if it’s a deeper rooted problem.
