The Taco: Super Taco (1 carnitas, 1 pollo)
The Price: $3.10 / each
The Verdict: I had just stopped in at El Festival's other location on Folsom Blvd only two reviews back and had left wanting more, so when I found myself downtown with some time kill today I decided to make a return trip to see if their new spot on J lived up to the same high standards. All in the name of science, you understand.
This time I ordered two of their Super Tacos, one each of carnitas and chicken. The super comes loaded up with meat, cheese, cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo. These tacos live up to their "super" name with all the toppings being piled high, making them a delicious drippy mess to eat. Just as on my visit to Folsom Blvd, the carnitas was moist and flavorful with just a little chewy crunchy crust. The chicken was well marinated and had a good flavor.
All in all not much new to say here that hasn't already been covered, the line at this one was also out the door by the time the lunch rush was in full swing. It's always good to see that a separate location is living up to the reputation of its sibling.
The Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)
