Los Tacos No. 1 is an establishment started by three close friends, from Tijuana, Mexico, and Brawley, California. They wanted to bring Authentic Mexican Taco to the east coast in a distinctly New York way. The authentic taste comes from family recipes and fresh, simple, and tasteful ingredients straight from home. In every taco from LOS TACOS No. 1, there is a bit of true Mexican culture and flavor. They welcome their customer with friendly staff, quality eats, and Mexican music from the radio.

Pies n Thighs started as a tiny kitchen in 2006 in place of a beer storage closet with six stools, serving huge donuts, two-napkin smoked pork sandwiches, and salty, crispy fried chicken. The restaurant has received numerous accolades for its dishes, especially baked goods, and comfort food. All the products used for cooking are antibiotic and authentic. The restaurant takes the cooking inspiration from classic American dishes, Mexican and Californian cuisine, and the Slow Food movement’s attention to ingredients.
