Getting your fill isn’t a problem at Tacos San Pedro—almost everything on the menu requires two hands. Tacos come two tortillas thick, meat piled in neat mounds with onions and cilantro perched on top. The al pastor tacos—pork marinated in a blend of spices and turned a deep red—are especially good. The flautas, topped with guacamole and the usual accompaniments, are almost twice as big as any of their cigar-sized competitors. And the burritos—what many consider the restaurant’s specialty—are deliciously utilitarian, filled with nothing but your choice of meats (there are plenty), cilantro and a thin layer of beans.
