Editor’s picks

Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in Mpls.St.Paul Magazine and Star Tribune. Updated August 2026.

Oro by Nixta · Northeast Minneapolis
Oro By Nixta extends the team's masa work into a full service Northeast restaurant where corn remains the organizing ingredient. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine names it in current critic coverage, and the menu moves through tostadas, tamales and composed plates rather than treating tortillas as background. The full official name should also reduce Google ambiguity.
El Burrito Mercado · St. Paul
El Burrito Mercado has anchored St. Paul's District del Sol for decades as a grocery, deli, bakery, market and sit down restaurant in one address. The Minnesota Star Tribune points diners toward its Mexican cooking and prepared foods. The breadth makes a visit useful for a plated meal, a taco counter stop or ingredients to take home.
Taqueria la Hacienda · Phillips
Taqueria La Hacienda is closely associated with al pastor carved from a slowly turning trompo, the Lake Street specialty highlighted in local coverage. The Minnesota Star Tribune names the restaurant and address in its Mexican dining guide. This entry pins the Phillips flagship, avoiding the brand's other metro shops and any stale temporary closure result.
Andale Taqueria · Richfield
Andale combines a busy Richfield taqueria with an attached Mexican market, letting diners move from prepared tacos and burritos to bakery, meat and pantry shopping. The Minnesota Star Tribune names the Nicollet Avenue restaurant in its local Mexican guide. The full official name, Andale Taqueria & Mercado, is used consistently across shared lists.
El TacoTorro · Midtown Global Market
Mpls.St.Paul Magazine names El TacoTorro in its current Twin Cities restaurant coverage. The year round counter inside Midtown Global Market serves tacos and other Mexican street food from a fixed stall rather than a temporary event setup. Its East Lake Street address pins the market location while the cuisines remain identical wherever the shared slug appears.
