§ 02 · About us

The first taquería in Europe

In 2006, in a tiny spot on Calle Fuentes, Manuel and Tadeo Gulias opened the first authentic taquería in Madrid.

Born in Mexico, they brought to Madrid what they understood as good food: the kind from the corner stall, the market, the neighbourhood. The food they had been missing for years.

Twenty years on, we run two spots right in the heart of Madrid, a bigger family, and still the same dough, the same salsas and the same slow-cooked dishes. We never forget that what matters most happens in the kitchen.

My favourite place in all of Madrid for tacos. Every time I pass through the centre I can't resist: everything is absolutely delicious. Pollo al mole, carnitas, pastor and cochinita pibil.

A little piece of Mexico in the heart of Madrid. It feels just like eating in Mexico. Great variety of beers. Go — you won't regret it.

Spectacular. The tacos are incredible and the prices unbeatable. Super juicy carnitas, incredible cochinita pibil, mole poblano with a surprising touch of chocolate.

The tacos and quesadillas are delicious, whichever you pick. Al pastor, huitlacoche, cochinita pibil, mole, flor de calabaza… I couldn't choose. We'll be back without a doubt.
