Taqueria La Ventana (translates to "the window") is a funky, fast-casual taqueria offering everyday, authentic Mexico City street food. Our traditional street-style fare will transport you south-of-the-border through a culinary and cultural experience. It began with a simple street taco - a small, agile taco that adapts to life on the go and makes up for its small size with amazing, fresh flavor. Our menu is small but mighty - offering your choice of more than ten meat and veggie options to fill our tacos, burritos, bowls and salads. Our traditional white corn tortillas and fresh salsas are handmade daily in the restaurant. We are obsessed with quality and strive to deliver that in every bite. Complete your dining experience with an ice cold Mexican craft or domestic beer, frosty margarita or Mexican soda and a freshly made churro. Then, relax with family and friends on our eclectic patios while enjoying contemporary Mexican music.
