Taquería Abolengo — Restaurant in Bacalar

Great fresh tacos.

This place caught our eye while walking past. It didn’t look like much but was always busy, and the fresh smell of pastor was tempting. We arrived late in the evening and received extremely nice service.

We opted for a table outside with nice music in the street. We had a full selection of tacos in a mixed variety, priced roughly 20 to 30 pesos each.

Absolutely delicious, freshly cooked at the front. They were so good we had to order two more each.

Highly recommend the Arabe (pork chunks)—soft and not too greasy.

Not to mention the very good price of drinks and the biggest piña colada I’ve ever...

My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I decided to try the vegetarian option. I ordered three vegetarian tacos, which were priced 30% higher than their meat counterparts. When my food arrived, I was appalled by the quality. The tacos were poorly prepared, featuring half-cooked onions, a single slice of zucchini, and a sliver of carrot. As much as I appreciate that Mexican cuisine tends to be meat-focused, offering a decent vegetarian taco is not difficult. A simple combination of beans, guacamole, and fresh salsa would have been a far better option. For the price, I expected much...

The best tacos al pastor in Bacalar by far. The taco master Efrain plays with the meat spits like a DJ with turntables and puts love in his food. The taste of the meat is out of this world, especially the sirloin, the tortillas are tasty and have a nice texture and the garnish on point. We had excellent service in spanish, delicious micheladas and the vibe was really cool with good music. Low prices and high quality, I definitely recommend...
