Does anyone know exactly where Taco El Poblano is located? The L.A. article gave an address on Diaz Ordaz but I haven'y been able to find it. Thanks

There are several taco places that are called Poblano, I doubt that they are part of the same chain, but the one that I know of is on Insurgentes across the street from Parque Morelos... it's on the left hand side of the street if you are heading towards MacroPlaza... Good tacos...



I may have found the one you're referring to: I just did a quick Google Maps search...

Thanks TJ Dave. The google map search zeroes right in on it. Located at Bl. Ordaz Diaz No. 7813, it is much farther out than I thought. Will definitely be trying it!

There must be about 15 of them. I think the one mentioned is close to Plaza Carousel and I like that one. There is one near my home in Alta Mira that is terrible.

I think the best Tacos el Poblano is in S. Rosarito. It is tiny and next to a Pemex. I have eaten at the one you mentioned and the one on Fundadores but none as good as this one. The vamparitos...yummy!!!

I also live in Altamira and i know exactly the place your talking about actually that place is one of the original POBLANO tacos in the city,  its been there since the early 70s but they can be really good or really bad , you need a "Black belt taco gobbler" like my self to give you a few tips. first go there at night never in the morning or evening cause there's different "taqueros" i mean the dude that makes the tacos, Second..NEVER order a taco from the chubby lady! she will give you the most discusting taco you ever had ... I personally know the late night guy and he dose NOT mess around with me...lol    Third, don't get the same type of tortillas that the regular joe gets with a carne asada taco ask to get the yellow corn hand made soft tortilla ,and also YOU select  the best cut of meat  from the grill depending on your taste like if you prefer well done or medium rare steak or like me i prefer the juicer cuts of beef,and give him a tip to remember you by... trust me the next time you visit he will  make those tacos HUGE!  there's a saying among us locals here that says..."Un buen taco es aquel que no cierra" translation " A good taco is that one that is not able to fold"..

I can walk to that stand from my home. It never has clients....no mystery to me why they have no business. Glad you found a way to enjoy the place.

When I go to Las Vegas...I want to be the only one at the Black Jack table, however when eating tacos, I eat at the places that have 25 or 30 people standing around the cart.
