Questions people ask
- How is this list ordered?
- Independents first, then chains, alphabetical within each. We do not rank places and we do not publish ratings.
- Why is a place I know missing?
- Either it is not tagged amenity=restaurant or fast_food with cuisine mexican, taco or tex-mex, or 'taco' in the name in OpenStreetMap, or its map point is outside the 1 km Bouldin Creek radius, or it is closer to another district's center. The editorial policy explains how to report a gap.
- Are the hours and addresses current?
- Addresses come from OpenStreetMap as of the date on the byline. We do not publish hours; use the official site link where one exists, and the OSM record for the exact map point.
