Guacamole was wonderful, but halfway through eating the burrito, it smelled a little funky, so I didn't finish it. I'm skeptical of ordering meat anyway, so perhaps next time I'll just get the veggie option. Overall, I would order here again.

Superb. I felt like I got catering for one, right down to the 12x10x2inch aluminum container in which the food was sent. Hats off the to the chef and to the manager, as I was duly impressed. Best guac I've had, the portions were generous, and the veggie chimichanga I received was piping hot and STELLAR.

Food is consistently excellent. Guac is always fresh and mousse-like. Delivery can be a bit slow (I live about 4 blocks away and it sometimes takes 60 minutes) but it's so good that it's worth it.

After an insane day at work filled with meetings and presentations, I was once again in the mood for take-out. And with that ... Mexican food came to mind.
The GF and I have ordered from Los Taquitos de Puebla once before. I love a good taqueria and they did a fairly decent job of providing those tastes via delivery the last time around. Perhaps it was the delivery aspect that muted my enthusiasm (nothing beats a fresh taco from a taqueria stand or even a taco truck), but I was willing to give Los Taquitos de Puebla another chance to blow my mind.
Gringa ($10)
Layers of protein, vegetables, tortilla and cheese. Served with shepherd style beef and Chihuahua cheese.
The last time around, I ordered the Alambre especiale which was a mountainous mound of pork, beef, cheese, mushrooms, and more. They provided flour tortillas on the side, allowing me to scoop just enough of what I wanted into each handheld bite.
Perhaps it's because the gringa is technically not offered as an 'Alambre,' but this iteration came as more of a quesadilla. I ordered this as the GF wasn't a fan of the melange of various meats in the especiale. The gringa contained only al pastor (shpherd style) beef - you could clearly taste the sweetness in the accompanying pineapple, which is typical of most al pastor tacos. The chihuaha cheese blended nicely with the rest of the dish.
However, I was disappointed that this was a quesadilla and not more of the 'Alambre' I had previously (my own fault of course). Regardless, the 'layers of protein' described were not seen here.
Tacos de Pollo ($10)
3 chicken tacos per order, fresh off the grill. Served with sour cream, lettuce, and fresh cheese.
These were ordered by the GF, and I somehow managed to snatch one of them away. It was fresh, delicious, and light compared to the gringa.
Overall, my perception of Los Taquitos de Puebla has not changed much - at least on the delivery end. Perhaps you simply need to have these tacos right off the grill to
