“ 2nd best carne asada tacos in the city. If you have read any of my other reviews, you'll know I have a thing for good carne asada tacos and La Escollera delivers. Super small and cozy dine in location, but they serve horchata unlike most of the other Mexican restaurants in the city that I have been to. ”
