After recently getting back from Texas and going to L.A. a few months back, I really miss the cheap large variety taco places, or even local chains like Torchy's (seriously who could go to Taco Bell when you have a Torchy's around)

I know we don't really have Mexicans around (we mostly have centro-Americans) but our taco options have always been lacking. Maybe I just don't know the spots.
Any help?

Taqueria Guerrero for authentic

A new place near the Fairgrounds called Catty Shack I've heard pretty good things about.

I've only been twice and had and enjoyed it both times. Last time I got the Trailer-park -Trashy and the Republican.

First time I got the independent and the one with Carne Asada. Been excellent and good price.

Aren't you in Kenner? I thought there was some decent taco places in Ktown.

Mostly latin. Not Mexican. But I did stop at one in Kenner I never tried. Tacos El Gordo.
They make the tortillas fresh. It is pretty good.

The thing in the back is a Vampiro like a mini Mexican pizza. It's a $1 more, the other tacos are $2.50 comes with chips and two salsas and bean soup.
My bill was $10.
$13 with tip not bad.

I'll third these guys



But the Carne Asada at Georgia's and the chicken at Taco Loco are probably my two favorites in the area.

Not plates, but taceaux loceaux puts out the hottest taco fiya...for the non-Kenner selection.

Guerro is a good place.
I couldn't remember the name just the location.
