Overview

Oaxaca Travel Tips lists Pepe Pica Papas in its 2026 guide, with a photo caption placing it near El Llano. The menu centers on bistec, chorizo and the campechano, a taco that mixes two or more meats. The selling point is a self-service toppings bar stocked with grilled nopales, fried onions, white beans, several salsas, French fries and cucumber. The guide gives no street address or founding date.

Context

Oaxaca de Juárez has its own taco culture built on local ingredients such as tasajo (thin salted beef), cecina enchilada (chile-rubbed pork), chorizo, quesillo and chile de agua, served alongside the tlayudas and memelas the state is known for. Street carts are not allowed to operate in the city on Wednesdays, although the rule is often relaxed on holidays.
