Weekend in Rosarito?

Tacos El Norteno in Rosarito right across from the Festival Hotel is pretty damn good and the best I have had in Rosarito. The carne asada and al pastor quesadillas con harina were better than anything I ate at Yaqui.

Better than Yaqui? Damn will have to book mark

I had Yaqui and Norteno on the same day and I thought Norteno was clearly better than Yaqui. Norteno makes their flour tortillas fresh for the quesadilla and the adobada is so delicious with a nice spicy surprise. The asada is also on par with Yaqui but I thought slightly smokier and juicier.

So grab a quesadilla harina de adobada and another with asada, then fresh handmade tortillas maiz for the tacos. My friend also got a torta and devoured it.

We all agreed that Yaqui was good but I have had better here in LA for sure.

Wow definitely down hill alert then for yaqui if used to be so good

El Norteno was really good. Just had Adobada tacos and the tortillas were corn and not homemade but the meats were delicious.

Adobada tacos from Tacos Manuel were just ok.

New to us place for breakfast. Solid chilaquiles.

If you’re looking for something different
El gaucho Argentino for grilled Argentinian Asados is delicious.

Is that a chilaquiles torta?

Yes, I’m usually of the opinion that everything is better as a sandwich but honestly the bread just detracted from very good chilaquiles.

Back to Tacos El Norteno: Adobada, carne asada and cabeza (this was the standout to me but all were good).

Apologies to A5Kobe as I didn’t take his recommendation for what to order but just thought it’d be too much food.
