El hijo de TIZOC

Tacos (various traditional fillings)

Handmade tortillas with slow-cooked meats and traditional garnishes — the foundation of the menu and reportedly the reason regulars return weekly

Mole-based dishes

Rich, complex mole sauces built on dried chiles and chocolate — the kind of preparation that distinguishes serious Mexican kitchens from casual ones

Slow-cooked braised meats

Tender, well-seasoned braises (likely barbacoa or carnitas) that benefit from the kitchen's patience with long cooking times

House salsas and sauces

Made in-house from roasted and dried chiles — the quality marker that separates this kitchen from lesser Mexican spots in the city
