Description:
If taquerias were scenes from blockbuster films, El Gran Taco would be the opening sequence from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Give them a call to check on their completely amorphous business hours – perhaps they’ll pick up the phone after 12 rings. If they put you on hold, maybe they’ll remember to pick back up five minutes later (if they haven’t already hung up). If they tell you they open at 5:00 PM, there’s a good chance they’re just putting you on. If you make it in the door, feel free to choose anything from the menu - but if it’s a burrito, don’t be surprised if the person in front of you with the big take-out order accidentally ends up with your slab. And considering the tag-team production process they employ at high-traffic times, it’s a crapshoot as to whether you’ll get what you actually ordered. But the true moneyshot? The street number on their business cards is incorrect. Indiana Jones wouldn't even bother with this first-rate obstacle course. Open real late on Friday and Saturday; closed Sunday.
