Carnitas Don Raúl on West Jones is a husband-and-wife counter for Michoacán-style carnitas, rooted in a 1991 Morelia family operation and featured on Netflix.
Try: Michoacán-style carnitas tacos
Tip: Order the carnitas by the pound with fresh tortillas and the house salsa. A quick weekend lunch on the way out of downtown.
Rolando's Super Tacos on West Hildebrand built its name on El Gigante, an enormous breakfast taco with your pick of five fillings, a stomach-test of a taco.
Try: El Gigante breakfast taco
Tip: El Gigante is the gimmick and a full meal in one taco. Order at the counter and add a cup of beans.
Chef Nicola Blaque's Jerk Shack began as a walk-up window with picnic tables, serving Jamaican jerk chicken and curry goat that earned a Bib Gourmand nod.
Try: Jerk chicken from a walk-up window
Tip: The jerk chicken is the signature; the curry goat sells out. Order at the window and grab a picnic table.
Garcia's Mexican Food on the West Side is a small, cash-friendly counter where the carne guisada taco on a fresh flour tortilla is the early-breakfast order.
Try: Bean-and-cheese and carne guisada tacos
Tip: The carne guisada taco on a fresh flour tortilla is the order. Small and cash-friendly; come for an early breakfast.
Chef Johnny Hernandez's La Gloria at the Pearl plates the street antojitos of interior Mexico, from tacos and sopes to ceviche and elotes, on a River Walk.
Try: Mexican street antojitos and tacos
Tip: Order a spread of antojitos rather than entrees and share. The patio over the Museum Reach is the seat to want.
Mi Tierra at Market Square runs around the clock, so a 3am plate of enchiladas is a local rite; grab conchas from the front panaderia on the way out.
Try: 24-hour Tex-Mex and pan dulce
Tip: Open around the clock, so a 3am plate of enchiladas is a local rite. Grab conchas from the front bakery to go.
