Taqueria Veracruzana
Profile
A tidy spot at the edge of the Italian Market, Taqueria Veracruzana has a bustling sit-down and takeout scene. Servers scurry among tables of Mexican families and gringo foodies, ladling out home-squeezed tamarind juice, delivering plates of chiles rellenos stuffed with mild asadero cheese, soft corn tacos filled with savory roasted chicken or steak, and pork tamales that send up clouds of steam when their corn-husk wrappers are peeled away. Order a side of smoky, almost chocolatey refried pinto beans, and layer on the chunky green salsa.
