Taco Deli

Taco Deli - Fish Taco & Al Pastor

Today I enjoyed another fine lunch at Taco Deli. I love this place and recommend it enthusiastically to anyone who asks. Though today's weather was cold, overcast and not conducive to outdoor dining, Taco Deli does have a nice outdoor seating area underneath handsome old Live Oak trees. The place is located just a stone's throw from a popular entrance to the Barton Crreek Greenbelt called Spyglass Trailhead. Those who travel by car can find it at the intersection of Barton Skyway and Spyglass Drive.

The indoor seating area is small and often crowded and the outdoor seating area is always crowded on fair weather days. But once your order is placed the food generally arrives quickly. Today I had my usual: one Fish Taco and one Al Pastor taco. The Fish Taco has a very generous serving of grilled catfish burried under a pile of red cabbage pico de gallo (red cabbage, red onion, tomato, cilantro). Yum! Light, healthy, cheap. What more could one ask for? The Al Pastor taco features chunks of pork marinated and cooked in Taco Deli's homemade Adobo sauce. It is always moist, tangy and delicious. Here's my favorite part: two tacos, glass of water with a wedge of lime, just six bucks.
