It’s not uncommon to see the crowd at least four deep on a Friday night at the bar of this tiny, popular Pilsen taco joint. But the skillfully made tacos and flavorful bebidas make the oft-long wait times worthwhile. The michelada—mixed with Clamato juice, hot sauce and a heavy dose of Worcestershire—is spicy and savory, making darker Negro Modelo its ideal beer mixer. This umami-rich beertail is also the perfect match for a few carne asada tacos, piled high with lightly toothsome, juicy steak and sharp housemade pico de gallo.
