Los Gorditos isn't touristy but plenty of locals seek it out to grab good cheap fresh tasting Mexican eats.
Awaiting the taco, I spied their condiment bar with salsas of various levels of heat. I grabbed something with a name I never saw before, starting with letters ma something.
Shrimp taco. Few places cook the shrimp right. The cook did it here just right with a natural wiener casing snap, not mealy or stringy. The shrimp had infused flavor and the rest of the ingredients were fresh making for a delightful treat. The salsa added a smoky and slightly spicy kick.
I had moderate expectations walking in and Los Gorditos blew them out of the water. I'd frequent this place in it were in my neighborhood.
