The Aguas Frescas are AMAZING. Be sure to check out the specials. Their Carnitas (weekends only) are sooooo good, the Sopas, and allll the Marsicos. I tend to have to be careful with Mexican food because it can upset my digestive system but NEVER here at Otaez. Quailty Ingredients! Impeccible foods! Basically one of the best values and high quality local Mexican places. Not vegetarian friendly really, so you've been warned. This is a family locals, local cops, working stiffs kind of place where people are cashing their pay checks and grabbing a yummy meal. Otaez is my favorite.
Pros: QUALITY food, Great Service, On the Cheap

Their tacos are the closest thing to the street tacos in Mexico, and they're only $1.50. Their tacos are simple, small corn tortillia, meat, onions, cilantro and salsa. That is what makes a real mexican street taco. The Americanized version has cheese, lettuce rice and pico de gallo (salsa.) If you want to try an authentic taco, come here and try their Al Pastor (BBQ pork and pineapple) tacos. It is the flavoring in the meat that makes the biggest difference in tacos. Once you've had this type of taco, you will never go back to burritos and American tacos. Did I mention, its only $1.50 per taco.
Pros: Meat Flavoring, $1.50 per taco, Fast Service
