During our latest visit the bartender couldn’t have been more attentive-especially considering the late hour at which we plopped our booties down. So popular is this sexy, corner joint that to even snag a seat at the expansive, U-shaped bar requires seriously elbowing every diner around you. The counter is absolutely where the action is and provides not only the occasional free sample of the delicacy to come, but also a first glimpse of every amazing dish before it leaves the kitchen.Īt last the Southport Corridor has a braggadocios neighborhood eatery. The counter at this Archer Heights taqueria is small, just like all the seating in this no-frills taco joint which has earned every possible accolade from foodies worldwide thanks to a menu consisting of goat, goat and more goat that is slow-cooked and falls right off the bone and into hungry mouths where it melts in a cascade of meaty goodness. You’ve never seen so many sleeve tattoos and mustachioed men in your life. The bartenders couldcare a less about you so order up a Mexican Coke or margarita, a heaping pile of chips and guac, and a few tasty tacos, and indulge in people watching to your heart’s content. But the giant rectangular bar is bigger even than the one where “everybody knows your name,” not that scoring a seat is EVER easy. You’re just another hipster wannabe at this beloved taco joint modeled after the Mexican cantinas popular in Austin and Los Angeles. Big Star | Photo courtesy of Lucy Angel Big Star
