The story
Since May of 1999, Taquería Los Milanesos has been a fixture in the Álvaro Obregón area of Mexico City. With two locations—one on Glaciar and the other on Veracruz—the taquería has built a loyal following over more than two decades. Its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition, awarded for good quality, good value cooking, confirms what local customers have known for years.
The menu centers on the milanesa de res, a breaded and fried beef cutlet served as a taco. Other options include medallón de pollo, jamón con queso manchego, suadero with nopales in salsa roja, chicharrón in salsa roja with nopales, and costilla de puerco en adobo. Tacos are well-served from $40, and the kitchen uses fresh ingredients prepared to order. Customers frequently mention the milanesa, chicharrón, and the green and red salsas as standouts.
Service is quick and informal; many guests eat standing on the street. “Comes parado pero no importa, así comes más,” one reviewer notes. The atmosphere is unabashedly casual, focused entirely on the food. For those who prefer to eat at home, takeaway is available through the Rappi app. The taquería also caters events, designing custom menus and budgets.
With a 4.4 Google rating based on nearly 7,000 reviews, Los Milanesos has become a reference point for Mexican cuisine in the south of the city. Regulars bring friends from other neighborhoods and countries, and the long line of cars along the avenue is a common sight. For a straightforward, satisfying taco that delivers on both flavor and value, this Bib Gourmand spot remains a reliable choice.
