z-teca

This place is in a limited food court in an office building. I wasn't even sure if they had tacos but the sign said Mexican eatery, so I took a look. Sure enough, they have burritos and tacos.

The protein selection was rather limited so I got one chicken and one beef barbacoa. No pork on the menu. I was there so early that the barbacoa hadn't even been shredded yet. And honestly, it was fine. Tender but not exactly packed with flavour. And none of the toppings really lifted it. The chicken wasn't any better, unfortunately, which seems to be a bit of a trend where the chicken tacos are bland and flavourless.

Made worse is that I received flour shells instead of corn. They hot press the shells but I'm not sure if they just didn't have the machine hot enough or didn't leave it in long enough because they were chewy and doughy and really brought everything down a notch.
