Taqueria Mi Barrio Es Tepito — honest mexican in Back of the Yards. Technique and tradition show up on every plate. Family-run. Rowshon Jahan: "Their salad were definitely a must try especially the salsa roja"

10/10. Of course, I'm not going to compare them. They're not the best, but they're among the best I've tried in Acapulco, Mexico, and San Diego, CA. They're excellent. I recommend them.

Tacos were pretty good and they came out relatively quick. Their salad were definitely a must try especially the salsa roja. Definitely give this place a try if you’re near by.

Before was better since the old man die. Food not the same. Also less portion. Of meat.. on tacos.. not same flavor.. look steak tacos it's more fat than meat. Also small portion of meat. I will never go back there. Nasty under new management..

Authentic Mexican flavor reminiscent of growing up adjacent to 26th Street food that I grew up on. Excellent customer service and family atmosphere. Felt like I was in their home.
