El Novillo 4

Amazing tacos and super affordable. I recommend the Al Pastor & Steak tacos.

Looks like a regular deli from the outside but they have some of the best Mexican food I've had anywhere in the city. There's a whole butcher counter so their meat is super fresh, great homemade cecina and chorizo, etc. I walked past this place for years and never went in because they used to be cash only (and I can't remember if they always had a full menu like this) but it's a new favorite spot for me

We stopped by on a whim, and were utterly unprepared for the quality of tacos- as good as any in California, every detail just-right: tender and flavorful tortillas, well-balanced salsitas, well-seasoned and tender meats; I highly recommend this place.

Everything is perfectly seasoned.
