La Casa del Pastor - 11550 Ciudad de México

Very good service! We didn’t dine in, but dropped by to buy some tacos Al Pastor for lunch at home. It was okay. I think you can get much better Al Pastor at El Charco de Las Ranas .

Delicious Tacos! Great location. Clean and spacious with indoor and outdoor seat. Friendly staffs. Highly recommended

Such amazing tacos!! Literally all of their tacos are amazing. Be sure to try the El pastor with queso.

Great experience, fast service. Sauces were wonderful. Meat was on a salty side but delicious. Wish they brought more chips for guac. And yes, we asked for more:)

My very first dinner in Mexico City! You need internet to check the menu from the QR code. Not sure if they have English menu but order from the pictures on google map and you won’t fail to get the best tacos! I had hibiscus tea (cold) and was very sweet.

I was initially suspicious because this is a chain but it was SO GOOD - try the pastor negra you won't be disappointed

Those mouth watering pics of the Al pastor tacos are for real. It’s upsetting that one of their delicious al pastor tacos is the same price as a Taco Bell one.

One of the famous tacos in Mexico are the “Tacos al Pastor”, which I use to have when I was studying in Mexico, more than 40 years ago. You would go to a small an humble restaurant where they would have a similar grill used to prepare Doner Kebab with a vertical burner, but using pork macerated on many spices, chiles and herbs. On top over the grill a pineapple. The cook would take a piece of paper, a corn tortilla, and with a large knife he would cut the pork over the tortilla, finally with a swing of the knife, he could cut a piece of the pineapple, capturing in the air with the tortilla and pork, he would add chipped onions and herbs, placing all on a cheap plastic dish. You could order as many tacos as you wanted. When finished they would count the number of papers where the tortilla was laid, giving the final charge that you would pay in cash. Today, there are many restaurants that serve tacos, some fancier than the others, being one of the “La Casa del Pastor”, you can order as many as you want, but now instead of papers you have a computer. To my surprise, they now have “Taco al Pastor Negro” (black), has the same process, but instead of pork they un cow meat (“Arrachera”). It is a highly recommended dish.
