One of the most venerated heroes of the old-school taco trucks, Mariscos Jalisco has earned a deservedly devoted following. The signature tacos dorado de camaron more than live up to the hype, with fresh shrimp folded into a corn tortilla that’s fried to a golden brown, topped with thick slices of avocado and drizzled with vibrant red salsa. Save room, too, for the legendary tostadas, like the Poseidon topped with shrimp ceviche, octopus and a spicy red aguachile of shrimp.
