One of the first questions we get asked from new transplants is: \u201cWhere\u2019s the best Mexican food in the Treasure Valley?\u201d So we sought out to answer that question by doing the research ourselves, one bite at a time! <i>You\u2019re welcome. <\/i>Our Idaho Wild team compiled a list of our top 3 Mexican food eats in the Treasure Valley \u2014 before we continue that sentence, narrowing it down to 3 was not an easy task!!! \u2014 there\u2019s many authentic Mexican restaurant options that we will feature in the future as the Treasure Valley is beyond blessed to have amazing cuisine! As we ventured out in search of the best taco, our Idaho Wild team asked the owner or manager of each restaurant one simple question: <b>What is the most popular taco on the menu?<\/b>\u00a0And well, of course, we just had to try it for ourselves! We rated the tacos, and gave our honest opinion.

A warm basket of fresh made tortilla chips was placed on our table with a mild salsa and bean dip,\u00a0 this is when you learn how much self control you really have, we have none \ud83d\ude09 Lucio told us their most popular item on the menu was their special, the Birria taco, which is made with beef shank sirloin and explained as the French Dip of Mexico. The tortilla is dipped in the sauce of the meat and then grilled until it has a perfect crunch. It was delivered to our table on a beautiful plate accompanied by rice and beans. We squeezed the lime on the taco and dipped it in the stew sauce. Every bite was a burst of savory and slightly spicy flavor. Perfectly crisp tortilla, ooey gooey cheese, and tender, fall apart meat make up this juicy and delicious taco.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; -webkit-text-stroke-color: #000000; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); color: #343434; min-height: 25px;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; -webkit-text-stroke-color: #000000; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); color: #343434;\"><span style=\"font-kerning: none;\">Very good score but we still had two more places to go!

You walk up to order, and they call your number when it&#8217;s ready, so make sure you don&#8217;t throw away your receipt (speaking from experience here)! On Taco Tuesday, they have a special, 3 tacos for the price of 2! 3 Carne Asada street tacos were served hot and ready to eat! So we ate. The flavor of the Carne Asada was delicious, but unfortunately that was the only thing that stood out. The tortilla was dry, and slightly hard but not crispy, more like a stale texture or not completely warmed up. The taco comes topped with Pico de Gallo, which has a good flavor but mostly tomatoes. We agreed that adding a little cilantro and a better tortilla would add a little bit of spice to the taco.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal;

The carne asada was tender and flavorful, served in a soft, freshly made, hot tortilla and topped with their house made guacamole, onions, and cilantro. On the side was a grilled pepper and grilled onions. They offer a red and green salsa, but we forgot to add it because it was so delicious, we didn\u2019t even need it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; -webkit-text-stroke-color: #000000; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); color: #343434; min-height: 25px;\">\n<\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; -webkit-text-stroke-color: #000000; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); color: #343434;\"><span style=\"font-kerning: none;\">After we finished our tacos, Daria offered to make us their other most popular item, the California Burrito.
