Taqueria La Mexicana — Restaurant in Fort Myers

As a gringo who was raised in Oaxaca Mexico by missionary parents for the first half of his life, I had the opportunity to experience authentic Mexican food. Street vendors were the best.

Maybe we can stop on our way back home!!...

The food unfortunately Was a little small (see picture) but inexpensive. I got the grilled beef, marinated pork, and Mexican sausage tacos. Each of them meats were a bit dry as if they’ve been cooking for a while. I got my lunch at 1:30 PM. The taco tortilla shells were extremely greasy and even though I ordered it to go I didn’t get any napkins, which was...
