Taco Tuesday: Miami Spots With More Than Just Delicious Tacos

It’s Taco Tuesday, but we’ve got more than just tacos on the brain. Our love of Mexican food knows no bounds. Here are five spots that not only have awesome tacos, but plenty of other dishes you’ve gotta order when you check them out.

The Taco Stand: Carne Asada Fries

Late night bites in Wynwood’s The Taco Stand aren’t complete without the carne asada fries. These babies are piled high with flame grilled Angus steak, guacamole, sour cream, and tons of melted cheese.

313 NW 25th St, Miami, FL 33127

Taquiza: Totopos and Guacamole

If you haven’t had a Taquiza totopo, you haven’t lived. The light and puffy chips are served warmly with a side of guacamole or pico de gallo — rumor has it, the new South Beach location will be serving queso.

7450 Ocean Terrace, Miami Beach, FL 33141 AND NEW South Beach location at 1351 Collins Ave!

222 Taco: Nacho Friends with Chorizo

Tucked away into Normandy Isle, you’ll find 222 Taco and some of the most underrated nachos in town. The Nacho Friends are topped with beans, queso, crema, guac sauce, candied fresno chilis and your choice of protein. Protip: go for the chorizo.

1624 79th Street Causeway, North Bay Village, FL 33141

Tacology: Pomegranate Margaritas

What’s a Mexican meal without a margarita or two? Grab tacos at Brickell City Centre’s Tacology and wash them down with one of the giant pomegranate margaritas.

4th floor Brickell City Centre, 701 S Miami Ave, Miami, FL 33131

Taqueria el Mexicano: A hidden mezcal bar

A trip to Taqueria el Mexicano can easily go from having a taco dinner to an entire evening out. This taco spot just opened a fancy hidden mezcal bar, that requires a trip through a candy shop to get to. Sounds like a pretty sweet night out to us.

521 SW 8th St, Miami, FL 33130
