I've studied mexican cooking, explored much of mexico in search of excellent regional cooking, and own my own comal and molcajete to reproduce many of the wonderful flavors. Unfortunately what was once great, is now reduced to average. I loved the down home carne asada and carnitas served greasily upon my ordered tacos and quesadillas, but after several recent trips...I must say--it's no longer high on my list. Nick's and Pancho's are the ones I will have to turn to now, the former less 'authentic' but truly well executed. At the formerly glorious La Taqueria, there's no excuse for consistently unripe tomatoes prolific within the pico de gallo, grey carne asada, and "too-moist" carnitas. The execution with tortillas (grill, quesadilla, chips) is still good, the ambience wonderfully simple, but the passion is gone. That must be it. Has the owner gone soft? Gone away? For some reason, leaving again unsatisfied last night made me crave the simply, but deliciously prepared tacos de carne asada available at the street vendors as you're walking back towards the footbridge to the US in Tijuana. For now...I'll stop by every now and then to see if things have gotten better...but no longer to get my fix. Pros: Was once good Cons: Tops no more, lost its mojo, expensive for hole-in-the-wall food
