The Best Tacos In Mississippi Are Tucked Inside This Unassuming Grocery Store

Sometimes, the most ordinary looking places house extraordinary surprises. That notion definitely applies to The Taco Shop. Housed in a shopping center, most wouldn’t give it any merit. But judging the unassuming eatery by its modest appearance is a huge mistake, as it serves up some of the best tacos in Mississippi.

One of several businesses in Oxford’s Old Town Square shopping center, The Taco Shop is easy to overlook.

However, after one bite of The Taco Shop’s “real deal” tacos, you’ll never be able to overlook it again.

The Taco Shop, which is also known as Mundo Latino, is both a grocery and an eatery.

Though small, the grocery selection includes a variety of Mexican spices, packaged foods, and other hard-to-find items from across the border.

Like the grocery inventory, the menu is small but sure to please.

In addition to classics, like quesadillas, gorditas, and burritos, the menu includes more than a dozen types of tacos!

The Taco Shop serves authentic street tacos, which are smaller than typical tacos and served on two small corn tortillas.

Small in size only, the tacos are bursting with flavor – and that’s due to the cilantro, onions, and perfectly seasoned meat that fill them.

Serving up traditional Mexican food in a modest setting, The Taco Shop may very well be Oxford's best kept secret.

For more information, call The Taco Shop at (662) 234-9668. You can also visit The Taco Shop Facebook page.

So, did you know about The Taco Shop? Have you ever visited? If so, did you try the tacos? How were they?

This isn’t the only unassuming eatery worth a visit. Read about another here.
