Los Cinco Puntos

Tips

• The best cheese and green chile tamales, as well as tacos de carnitas (order with everything!). They also sell their spongy hand-made corn tortillas to go.

• Their 8 dollar super burrito is more than enough for two people to split.

• The sheep's head meat taco is a go-to. The secret is in the dried corn of the tortilla, which imparts a slightly acidic tang. And god forbid you make any changes to this taco by adding hot sauce.
