Taqueria La Bonita

### CLOSED ### What a GREAT new find on Lower Brownsboro Road in Clifton! We went in for a quick bite on an impulse and my executive chef husband was BLOWN AWAY. Top notch quality and flavor to match! The freshness and "clean eating" factor topples the scale at La Bonita Tienda. Nope. That scale is broken. Something for everyone here! Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with specials on a chalkboard. Special diet peeps (vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free) can eat as well as meat-a-tarians. I have a limited diet and ate like a queen. The horchata, a sweet rice-milk drink over ice, really hit the spot after doing yard work. And since I always require guacamole, an appetizer was in order. Their insanely fresh guacamole is the perfect balance of tangy lime and cool cilantro with chunky avocado and bits of tomato and zippy, not-to-hot peppers. The tacos made me very happy. Better than my grandmother's tacos! Ok, she was a depression era, proper Bostonian of Irish decent who never ate a taco in her life, but IF she had ... I digress ... but corned beef would have made an appearance. I tried the flank steak, marinated pork, and chorizo tacos. They come with a sprinkling of duced onion, sliced radish and lime wedges on warm corn tortillas, the ultimate comfort food. The pork was my favorite because it had grilled pineapple with the meat. Use the house made green tomatillo sauce to bump up the heat or the red tomato sauce to add a little heat and lots of flavor. And, yes! They DO sell the sauces to go too! I miss the guac already! And don't forget the grocery store too! I'm so glad I've got authentic food and shopping in my neighborhood now!

Great little neighborhood taqueria in Clifton/Clifton Heights. Super friendly hosts serve up authentic Mexican in a small but comfortable setting. While I typically stick to tripas and pastor, the chorizo is unlike anything ever seen, full of juicy chunks of pork sausage. Add a healthy dose of homemade salsa and a cold Fresca for a satisfying quick bite.

Wonderful food! Tried the chicken vegetable soup this time. Tasted great, and very filling! Definitely will be back.

This place was fantastic, not a single bad taco. My new favorite taco spot for sure, don't miss out.

Delicious, authentic Mexican cuisine. Made from scratch mole and some of the best tacos I've ever had.
