Overview

Tacos El Charro is at the corner of Venustiano Carranza and Aramberri in central Monterrey. México Desconocido's 2026 guide says it has been a local reference for decades. It opens at 2 p.m. and stays open into the early hours.

The menu covers the classics of Monterrey's evening taquerías: tacos de trompo, bistec, gringas, campechanas and enchiladas. It also serves tacos de cabrito, which brings the city's signature roast goat into a taco.

Trompo is pork marinated in a red adobo and roasted on a vertical spit. In Monterrey it is usually served in small corn tortillas, and a gringa folds the meat with cheese into a flour tortilla. A campechana combines two meats in one taco.

México Desconocido lists it with other downtown classics such as Taquería Juárez and Tacos Primo.
