Taquería Frontera is the American cousin of a Tijuana taco chain known for its al pastor—and the delicious marinated pork tacos are what you should prioritize here. This street corner taquería is hard to miss with its bright yellow signage and sidewalk stools that look onto the sizzling grills. That’s where you get a front-row view of the spinning trompo seasoned with lots of smoky dried chiles and shaved to order onto fresh corn tortillas. It’s the spiciest al pastor we’ve had recently, but the sliced pineapple they fling on top adds a nice pop of sweetness. Order your al pastor “con todo,” and they’ll drizzle on a cilantro crema that cools things down a few notches. The rest of the Frontera’s meats don’t reach the heights of the al pastor, but the braised lengua, chopped chorizo, and asada are all solid. Skip the dry-ish birria, though, which could use an injection of consommé. Taquería Frontera has all of the requirements of a very good neighborhood taquería: fast, convenient, and perfect for spontaneously pulling over for tacos on the ride home.
