A review from a mexamerican, one that knows the american and the mexican taste buds.
Tacos Rigo are relatively famous in Cancun. They have 3 or 4 locations throughout Cancun. This is the type of places americans are looking for when they say they want a "mexican restaurant" to eat at.
They do have a large selection and offer beers as well, not sure about mixed drinks. They offer carnitas, al pastar, beef, chorizo, sudadero, etc.
I feel that them having so many items is part of why I don't like to eat there as much. I find their different dishes to be ok at best. I can't say I ever had anything that was bad enough that I couldn't eat, but I also can't say I ever had a taco there that felt it was just amazing.
If I want to eat carnitas I go to a place that offers nothing but carnitas. If I want to eat some good sudaderos (usually beefs head) I go to a place that only offers that. So the one advantage Tacos Rigos have is that if not everyone in the group wants to eat the same thing they do have many other options.
Now, do remember that when it comes to Mexican food I am much more pickier than the regular american. I would venture to say that most americans that do go there would say it is a good place.
Hope you enjoyed my review and I invite you to follow me to catch my other reviews and hopefully help you find other little gems around the Cancun Area
