Soft or crunch, meaty or veggie, here’s where to order up the best tacos in the Metroplex
There are so many great spots to get them in Dallas and all around the Metroplex, when it comes to tacos. From crunch to soft and meaty to vegan, one thing about Dallas tacos is that one feels compelled to stick to old-school ideas about what a taco must be.
Here are some of the best, most inventive, most comforting, and most delicious tacos around DFW.

Try something from the ever changing Tacos de Tacha menu at Jose — it features seasonal, fresh, and creative fillings in a street taco corn tortilla.
El Vecino is a neighborhood favorite for good old-fashioned Tex Mex. Their classic crispy taco plate is the way to go to, but soft tacos hit the spot too.
Hit up this Dallas establishment for a plate of tacos de carnitas, in which slow-cooked pulled pork is smothered with onions, chipotle aioli sauce, queso fresco, and cilantro.
Revolver is a great spot to push the boundaries of what you order in your taco. These tacos are a work of art, from duck breast to scallops to wagyu.
Not surprisingly, Dallas’s premiere vegan Tex Mex spot is a delicious destination for tacos. They’re made with soy-based chicharrones. Pro-tip: don’t skimp on the dipping sauce.
This one is for the Lucha libre fans or folks who like a success story. Del Sur went from a gas station operation to a storefront with an extensive Tex Mex menu. The tacos are a la carte, and the cochinita pibil is a must-order.
Tacos and wine? Yes, please. This adorable Bishop Arts spot offers six tacos and a bottle of wine for $40 — and you can mix and match any way you like. Hard to beat that deal.
This spot tucked away near the Oak Cliff nature preserve is a Mexican food gem. Order the taco plate, with street tacos and one “Taco Maskaras,” featuring carne asada, queso derretido, pico, and guac.
