Taco y Tapa Bar

This little place off calle Embajadores (Metro Embajadores) is a true gem. The owners, Susana & Juan are two wonderful young people from Mexico city bringing authentic Mexican flavors to the capital. They are friendly and inviting, and their food is fantastic. I’ve never tried anything but their tacos because they are so good. They are real — the softshell hot corn tortilla that’s filled with delicious meats and spices. Though I have been to Mexico and eaten Mexican food in several countries, I never liked mole sauce before going to Taco y Tapa Bar. Now they know to prepare it just about every time I walk in the door. And their prices are excellent too. 2EUR per taco, 1EUR per national beer and 2.50EUR for a bottle of imported Mexican, and best of all, 2EUR for tequila shots. That’s the cheapest I’ve found in Madrid, and nothing follows up a great taco like a smooth shot of tequila. I bring all of my friends there and will continue to do so because this is the best taco place I’ve been to, and I know they will never disappoint!
