Tizne Tacomotora Mexico City

Tasty grilled tacos

""Tizne Tacomotora" Mexico City make very original tacos: they're very generous and made with high quality ingredients. I also love their butter ice cream."

I have to publicly thank my friend Alba for introducing me to this place. It is definitely one of the best discoveries of the century. Tizne, before being a spot, was a bike restaurant that sold different tacos from the traditional ones we know.

Nowadays, they have a physical space in Colonia del Valle and still offer tacos in a very original format that can be with beef, chicken, pork and even for vegetarians. The base is blue tortillas and they add slices of green tomato and some kind of aromatic herb. The meat is prepared in a special way that gives it a unique touch.

The result is a taco of high quality ingredients and very generous proportions. There are four types of sauces, all well made, and two of them very spicy.

In addition, their desserts are spectacular, especially the ice cream taco; the butter ice cream was surely made by a group of angels.

The prices are reasonable and the place is nice and clean. If you want to try different and very tasty tacos, this is the place. You will not regret it.
