Reviews of Tito's La Especial
"Gets packed but the tacos of vapor! One of my top favorites to go out n eat. I highly recommend here."
"The specialty of Tito's La Especial are "tacos al vapor," aka steamed tacos. This delicious Mexican street food is also known as "tacos de canasta" (basket tacos) because they're traditionally layered in a big basket and sold by street vendors, many of whom hawk them from their bikes. Tito's "Carne Deshebrada Taco Al Vapor" is excellent. Aside from steamed double corn tortillas comprising each taco's "shell," the chile-steeped shredded beef inside is soft, luscious, and as juicy as you'd want any meat to be. You do want to eat these quickly, before the tortillas begin to stick to the wrappers they are served in. Despite the fact they traditionally would be drizzled in oil (to help preserve them) and served out of a basket over the course of a day, these tacos are best made-to-order. I would also recommend the "Papas Taco Al Vapor," consisting of seasoned potatoes in a ranchera sauce, a loose mash of creamy crushed potatoes and firmer chunks, all colored orange from the sauce. The "Taco Dorado de Carne Deshebrada" served here is the complete opposite of the al vapor tacos, as the tortilla is instead a crunchy deep-fried shell that is stuffed with stewed beef, lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and shredded cheese. Tito's does a decent job with this style of taco, but you really should stick to the al vapor tacos here, which are indeed "especial." Tito's La Especial's salsa roja is made of fire and miracles and I recommend it be used on everything you eat here."
"This place has some delicious papa tacos! I like that they have hard and soft tacos. Went for lunch with the work team and got crispy potato tacos and a tostada. Everything is fresh, hot and very flavorful. If your order is under about 10 bucks and you use electronic payment, there is a charge, I usually pay cash. The lunch combo specials come with a drink and the horchata was some of the most well balanced sweetness I've had. Definitely a good place for Mexican food."
"Some of the best traditional shreded beef comes with lettuce avocodo sauce with the house red sauce it's pretty good. They deep fry them and how they go about it you just taste the difference. Out of all the tacos they have this one is the best by far. Potatoe tacos are worth the try, for sure. The service is really fast for dinning in and take out."
