Mad Taco

The wildly popular Mad Taco is the brainchild of Peter Madden (of Casual Gourmet), and while many of the fillings might seem familiar (braised pork, carne guisada), he differentiates his offerings with his own “tamale bread” tortilla. The result is a zesty, soft, corn-y foundation you’ll also find, in thinner, crisper form, as the crust for the pizzas; try the beef tenderloin with mixed greens. Also popular are the unusual margaritas, like beet and chamoy.
