While, yes, these tequila experts have margaritas, cocktails, and more to keep you feeling good, it's their tacos that will convince you to make a return trip. Paco's Taco is their specialty, and it's definitely what you should order. This bad boy has beef brisket that has been slow-roasted for ten hours as its centerpiece."
