The Best Tacos in Wynwood

As you spend the day strolling through the streets of the city’s Art District, don’t forget to stop for a quick bite in between. And what better than a taco pit stop during a busy art-filled day? Wynwood is no short of mouthwatering taco joints slinging the freshest hand-made corn tortillas topped with proper marinated meats and made-from-scratch salsas. Below, we’ve gathered the best of the best.

Bar Tulio’s

Short Rib Birria Tacos

Bar Tulio’s is the newest kid on the Wynwood block for taco lovers, serving up a taste of authentic Mexican flavors with a modern twist. Their tacos are crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients and packed with vibrant flavors that celebrate both tradition and creativity. From the classic carne asada and al pastor to innovative vegetarian varieties, each taco is a work of art.  Speaking of art, the sprawling warehouse space features hand-painted murals from local street artists that can be viewed from the center bar or cozy booth seating.  Bar Tulio’s vibrant atmosphere also and dedication to quality make it a must-visit for Mexican food enthusiasts.

Coyo Taco

For some of the bomb diggity best Mexican street food in Wynwood look no further than Coyo Taco. Their patronage is clearly visible by the lines that form outside of the establishment daily but don’t worry, the lines move fast, and soon enough, you’ll be munching on the best tacos this side of the gulf. 

Perhaps nothing describes Coyo Taco better than F-R-E-S-H. The corn tortillas are always made by hand in the best of Mexican traditions; the avocados smashed to order for your spicy guacamole, vegetables, and proteins are farm-fresh and humanly raised; and even the tequila is of the restaurant’s own distillation. All tacos arrive two per order, and the art district crowd favorites include carnitas de pato—Michoacan-style duck confit, carne asada alambre—marinated Angus sirloin steak with bacon and melted queso mixto, and coliflor—roasted cauliflower with a pipian mole for the fellow vegans.

Sr de Los Tacos Wynwood

Sr de Los Tacos is a farm-to-plate restaurant in the arts district specializing in burritos, sopes, and of course, tacos. The ambiance, while casual, is both warm and inviting, with brightly colored walls, warm lights, and aromas that will have your mouth watering the moment you step into the establishment. Handmade yellow corn tortillas, juicy meats, and farm-fresh vegetables make up these delicious tacos oozing with zestful salsas. 

If it’s your first time grabbing some tacos from Sr de Los Tacos, we recommend going with some Wynwood-favorite flavor sensations: the al pastor is a culinary dynamite with perfectly marinated pork, pineapple, and the restaurant’s special green sauce. Then, there’s the saucy birria taco made with shredded slow-cooked beef short rib, and molten Chihuahua cheese and served with the richest broth of your birria dreams. Last but not least: indulge in the sexy fish taco, a treat for the eyes and the palate with its crispy fried white fish topped with a colorful arrangement of purple cabbage, sweet mango salad, coleslaw, and chipotle sauce. This one hits hard.
