Best of
the Twin Cities
If a taxi without wheels is a metaphor for the state of the world right now, the fact that it’s full of tacos should help ease your pain. Taco Taxi’s bright yellow brick-and-mortar on Lake Street serves up authentic Mexican tacos, burritos, and tortas with real-deal asada, pastor, lengua, cabeza, and tripa, plus something called birria, a spicy Jalisco-style stew. It’s insanely cheap, it’s delicious, and you can get it until 3 a.m. in a town that all but shuts down by 2. It won’t drive you home, but it will fill you up and send you on your way.
