Acme Taco in Lafayette is a must-try!

We went there Tuesday night, and I have to say that this place is legit.

Located on North University near Cracker Barrel at I-10, it's a little out of the way for those living in the heart of the city, and moreso for those on the south side.

This place used to be a run down purple and green immigrant Mexican type of restaurant, but it has new owners and they've totally refurbished the building.

Think casual/dress casual attire in a chic modern decor.

To start, you get chips and their handmade salsa. It is probably the best salsa I've ever had. Full of flavor and not watery. There are numerous salsa choices.

The tacos are very good. $3 each. You'll want to order about three for your meal. Tuesday is $2 taco night, so not a bad deal.

I got the side of Creme de Maiz, and it was very good.

Their Plain Jane (house) margarita was tart but very good, served in a stemless martini glass. Got mine on the rocks. There are several interesting marg choices here as well.

Check them out at www.acme-taco.com and see the menu.

You'll notice you can get Creme Brûlée for dessert.

They don't do the full menu of chimichangas, chalupas, tamales, steaks, fish and such. Pretty much just tacos, some similar to quesadillas.

I encourage anyone in the area to check this place out. We will be going back, for sure.

Post your experiences, par favor.
