Discover the irresistible charm of the infamous street taco
Small in size, big in flavor
Street tacos are proof that good things really do come in small packages. Served on palm-sized corn or flour tortillas, they are designed for one perfect bite after another. Each one usually features warm, freshly grilled or slow-cooked meat, seafood, or veggies, and simple, flavorful toppings like onion, cilantro, and salsa. It is this simplicity and the quality of each ingredient that make street tacos unforgettable.
A taste of history
This beloved handheld dish traces its roots back to Mexico, where street vendors first sold them to feed workers on the go. Their portability, affordability, and bold flavors made them an instant hit. Over time, they have traveled far beyond Mexico’s borders, inspiring food lovers worldwide and becoming a staple at festivals, markets, and food trucks.
