This week's review took me to Taco Mex, a boxy red and white building on East Colfax that makes tacos al pastor the traditional way, in a tent in the parking lot. Those tacos were my favorite find at the eatery, though I enjoyed eating my way through the rest of the joint's massive board of Mexican food, too.

Here are a side of photos to go with the review.

Patrons gather near the tent in the parking lot, chatting in Spanish with the aproned cooks.

In addition to streetside tacos, Taco Mex also turns out an array of Mexican food without any particular regional focus.
