Elvira's Taqueria
Elvira's Taqueria is a taquería in Cathedral City, California, known for quesabirria tacos and a Taco Tuesday special.
Overview
Elvira's Taqueria appears both on Visit Greater Palm Springs' Greater Palm Springs Taco Trail and in its list of authentic Mexican restaurants in the region. The tourism bureau says the menu carries the phrase 'La Casa de mi Ama,' roughly 'my mom's house,' signaling home-style cooking.
Tacos come with carne asada, al pastor, chicken, carnitas, birria, shrimp, fish or lengua, but the shop is best known for quesabirria tacos, the cheese-crisped birria tacos served with consommé for dipping. Its Taco Tuesday runs from 4 to 9 p.m., with tacos starting at $1.50 according to Visit Greater Palm Springs.
