Decatur

• Mezcalito’s Cantina – “mole fried chicken…is one of my favorite restaurant meals anywhere”, “Locally? Mezcalitos, [is my favorite Mexican restaurant] hands down.”
• Matador Cantina
• Taqueria del Sol – “I could eat TDS daily”

Oak Grove

• Taqueria El Vecino – “definitely deserving of wider recognition”, “go on Saturday and get the green chile grits with carnitas”,

Tucker

• Taqueria Los Hermanos – “been alternating between the grilled tilapia and the marisco enchiladas for years and I never get tired of them”, “Craving some cesina and pastor now”
