If your three favourite things in the world are “tacos, tacos, tacos”, there’s great news: Potts Point has a legit, hole-in-the-wall Mexican eatery, and its raison d’etre is up in lights at the entrance.

Providing the ideal mix of south-of-the-border bona fides and small-bar nous, Tacos Tacos Tacos is the work of Guadalajaran chef Joe Valero and the team from nearby wine bar Caravin.

The offering is a simple one: five tables, five tacos (and a quesadilla) and service with a smile. The tacos have a habit of running out, so get in early for the pork cabeza, a mix of meat from a pig’s head, stewed and then crisped up on the grill, topped with deeply rich salsa macha.

The beef suadero is melt-in-your-mouth goodness with piquant salsa morita, while a small selection of traditional drinks has us wishing for a “horchata horchata horchata”, spin-off, too.
