Most Festive Table
Pink blossoms overhead, trompo spinning in the kitchen, margaritas that make you stay for one more. Welcome to Tacos del Cartel.

The Trompo al Pastor
Seasoned meat stacked on a traditional spit, carved to order and folded into a fresh tortilla — this is the dish that started it all.

Cocktails Worth the Drama
Rose-shaped glasses. Smoke that curls across the table before you even take a sip.
From the Kitchen

Born Bold, Built to Celebrate
In 2020, Danny Cruz and Vilexis Salas launched Tacos del Cartel as a culinary love letter to Mexico's vibrant streets and New Orleans' soulful energy — and the audacity to open a restaurant when the world stood still.
