If you want authentic Mexican street food, go to the place that learned from the source. Expect to wait a bit, but also expect some of the absolute best and freshest tacos in town.

You know a place is good when there is almost always a long wait. But it's worth it for the fresh tacos and maybe even more so for the guacamole. Try it with a margarita and you'll be in taco heaven.
