TAQUERÍA / TACOS & GRILLED MEATS
Sirloin or Taco Loco, then coconut ice cream. Art’s recommendations at this Avenida 30 taquería, with his own photos and a menu you can use to order.
My recommendations here are the orden de sirloin or Taco Loco. The photographed menu lists the sirloin order at 138 MXN and Taco Loco at 166 MXN. Taco Loco combines pastor, chuleta and arrachera with cheese in a flour tortilla; the menu also lists an order version at 186 MXN.
The coconut ice cream was excellent. You can find it as helado de coco on the dessert menu, at 105 MXN in my photo. These photos also show our table, the open kitchen, the dining room and the yellow-and-orange exterior, so you can recognize this branch when you arrive.
I recommend the orden de sirloin or Taco Loco. The coconut ice cream is excellent. — Art

This is the El Fogón branch on 30 Avenida Norte s/n in Centro, identified by the map link in Art’s notes. Use this pin rather than a general search for the chain, which has several branches.
Source: Art’s original El Fogón notes and 11 photographs. The exact branch, map pin, Google rating and listed hours were checked on October 19, 2026. The visit date and payment methods were not recorded. The guitarist appears in a visit photo; live music is not a guaranteed daily feature.
