Where are the best corn tortillas in Tucson? Many would suggest Taqueria Pico de Gallo's fresh-made ones. Their fish and shrimp tacos are inspired by co-founder Antonia Delgado's upbringing in Baja California, Mexico.
La Yaquesita Tacos started making their amazing quesabirria in a food truck on the far west side of Valencia Road. They're soon opening a second location on Tucson's 4th Ave.
La Doce, a 3-mile stretch along South 12th Avenue on Tucson's south side, is working to embrace its cultural identity and pave the way for future generations.
