Mi Asia — Restaurant in El Paso

A Love Letter to Tacos

Have you ever seen When Harry Met Sally? You know that scene—the one that made an entire restaurant pause in awe? That was me, except it wasn’t for dramatic effect. It was a genuine, involuntary reaction to these tacos.

I ordered one of each: Pho Rib, Shrimp Gochujang, Spicy Buldak, and Steak Laab—a lineup so strong it deserves its own cinematic universe. Each bite was a masterclass in flavor, so choosing a favorite feels like picking a favorite child (impossible, yet somehow I went back for seconds of the Pho Rib and Spicy Buldak).

What really made our experience stand out, though, was the owner's hospitality. Despite being the only one working, she was friendly, welcoming, and impressively efficient. Can't wait to come back and try more...
