Tacos Like You’d Eat in Mexico

We make tacos the way we grew up eating them - fresh tortillas, bold flavours, real salsas. If you’ve been to Mexico, you’ll taste the nostalgia. If you haven’t, this is the closest you’ll get without jumping on a plane.

It’s All About the Tortillas

We make our own using traditional nixtamalised corn - the same way it’s been done in Mexico for generations. Once you taste a real tortilla, you won’t go back.

We only use the best New Zealand grown corn.

HIGHLY NUTRITIOUS

Fresh nixtamal corn tortillas are a great source of fiber, magnesium, iron, vitamin B3 (niacin), and calcium.
