About this spot
El Pescadito in Coyoacán makes tacos the way Mexico City does — small corn tortillas, perfectly seasoned meat, cilantro, onion, and a squeeze of lime. No hard shells. No sour cream. Just perfection.
💡 Tips before you go
- Al pastor (spit-roasted pork with pineapple) is the CDMX essential
- Double tortilla is standard — it holds the juices
- Salsa bar is self-serve. Green (verde) is usually milder than red (roja).
- The best taquerías have a crowd at 10pm. That's dinner time.
