El Carboncito — Restaurant in Jalisco

Came here after a recommendation by a local and boy did it not disappoint. Seating is first come first serve so if you see an empty table, grab it! Avoid the indoor tables though as they tend to be overwhelmed by the smoke from the grill. However, once outside, the vibes and the food are immaculate. By far the best tacos we had while in PV. The al pastor gets the plaudits, especially seeing the trompo outside in the street, the arranchera stole the show for us. Grilled and seasoned to perfection, we had plate after plate until they ran out and still wish we could’ve had more. The salsas were spicy and added the perfect amount of flavor to an already flavorful plate.

We got here around 7:30pm on a Wednesday and waited about 10mins for a free table (mostly due to a food tour that stopped by and took up most of the tables).

In total we spent about USD $40 in total for 4 people with beers and tacos. An incredible deal for the quality. Definitely make this a stop whenever...

IMO - best tacos in PV. Why?

Tortillas and Al Pastor were HOT and fresh, where other more “popular” spots didn’t feel as authentic or fresh Al Pastor was just right amount and flavor is balanced perfectly. It’s where the locals go — and was recommended by our Uber driver when I asked where the good taco spots were. He was 110% right. SO CHEAP: at the time of this writing - tacos were 15 pesos (about .75 cents a taco) and the Volcanes (crunchy taco) was 20 pesos (1 dollar).

It’s a crime the quality of taco they serve and how much they are. I hesitated to write this because more people could start going here, however I want them to succeed and hope it gets the recognition it deserves.

Save your wallet, trip, and taste buds for the best straightforward tacos you won’t regret. Especially if you are staying in the hotel zone. We stayed at Villa Premiere and came here every night from the time we...

This place is a must try if you are in PV. It's a small hole in the wall that has only about 8 tables inside and a few chairs outside. They open in the evening time around 7pm and stay up late while people are still up and eating (past midnight). The food is delicious and so affordable. Mostly all locals here, we were the only "tourist" in the place. One of the waiter spoke English and it made it easy to order. They are very friendly and I would totally come back every...
