Choi's Tacos 초이스타코 - Sinchon 신촌

Check out My Youtube Channel!

Choi's Tacos is a small Mexican place that is on the main drag in Sinchon.  I have been to this place several times and I must say that the food tastes good, but there are a lot of drawbacks and many other places that are much better than Choi's.  These days the only reason I go to this place for my Mexican food is because they are lightening fast and as such it is a good place to go when you are pressed for time.

The food in this place does not taste bad, but it is definitely not worth the money.  It is expensive and the portions are small.  Regardless of what you order the portions are not large enough and you will for sure have to order two things unless you don't eat very much.  On top of all of this there is nothing in this food that seems that it should cost all that much.  The burritos are mostly rice with a bit of chicken, cheese and salad.  They also charge for water which I find annoying as well.

This place has been around for a long time and seems to be quite popular which is a bit of a mystery to me because there are many better places than Choi's.  This place is good for a quick bit when you are in a rush, but is certainly not somewhere that you need to visit.

Taco Loco 타코로코 - Sinchon 신촌

Check out My Youtube Channel!

Taco Loco is one of my favorite restaurants in Sinchon and is one of the top Mexican places that I have been in all of Korea.  There are a few other places that I really like and Taco Loco is among the best.  Since I live in the neighborhood you will see me eating at this place quite often.

I have tried just about everything on the menu, but my personal favorites are the burritos and enchiladas.  The avocado chili burrito is one of my personal favorites because it comes with a ton of ingredients that all come together to make a delicious meal.  All of the enchiladas are also excellent and have generous helpings of sauce all over them.  Another good side order is the french fries with sour cream.  A unique dish I have never seen before but makes an awesome combination.

Be aware that the tacos in this place can be ridiculously spicy to the point of not even being able to eat them if you are not good with super spicy food.  Additionally, the portions can be a bit small and I have noticed in recent times that they have gotten smaller.  I have been ordering two things every time I go here in recent history which has left me a little disappointed, but the quality of the food has not changed and it is always delicious

B'Mucho Cantina 베무초칸티나 - Mexican in Hongdae Yeonnamdong 홍대 연남동

Check out My Youtube Channel!

B'Mucho Cantina has got to be my new favorite Mexican place in Korea after having gone here last week to try their enchiladas.  The Mexican food in Korea just keeps getting better and better with every new place that opens up.

I ordered their enchiladas which came with about four enchiladas covered in a green sauce that had quite a bit of jalapeno in it.  It was a little bit spicy and also came with two slices of toast which is not something I have ever seen before, but they were good for mopping up the left over sauce.  Although this place does not measure up to the standards of California, it comes dam close.  The chicken inside the enchiladas was fantastic and the sauce was spot on.

I am eager and excited to go back to this place and try more of their menu items as I was completely impressed with the food.  The food is slightly expensive.  The enchiladas were 12,000.  That being said, they were large enough to be considered a full meal and were absolutely delicious.  The portions at many restaurants in Yeonnamdong are way too small, but this place does it right.

Dos Tacos 도스타코스 - Mexican Chain in Korea

Dos Tacos is a huge chain of Mexican food that is all around Seoul.  This place essentially has the atmosphere of a fast food restaurant in America and is good for all occasions.  The food comes out quick and it is of decent quality especially for the location in Gangnam.

I am not sure if it is that the food at Dos Tacos is good or there are no other decent restaurants in Gangnam, but this place is one of the better restaurants in the area particularly if you are looking for a quick bit to eat.  I have tried several menu items and I have never been disappointed, but it is not a cheap place.  Many of the menu items are around 10,000 won, and are not that big.  This place is good for those of you who are missing Mexican food.
