Tacos and mezcal after dark
Your New Favorite Evening Taco Tour
Do tacos and mezcal taste better after dark? We think so. This is the grown and sexy version of our CDMX Local Taco Tour — designed for travelers who want a night out with incredible food, smoky mezcal, and good company. It’s casual, fun, and social, perfect for adults looking to experience Mexico City nightlife through its most iconic flavors.
Over three hours, you’ll explore boutique taquerías (and don’t worry, we’ll stuff you at each one) and a dessert stop that highlight the modern side of Mexico City’s taco scene. They’re run by the new generation of chefs and taco entrepreneurs who are reinventing tradition. Along the way, we’ll taste distinct mezcals, sip a few beers, and end the night with churros. Join for a solo or experience, with friends, as a couple or book it privately for your group.

FAQ’s:
What makes this different from other Mexico City food tours?
Created with adults in mind, this night tour blends a casual, social vibe with mezcal, beer, creative tacos, and a dessert stop.
How long is the tour and what’s included?
The tour runs about three hours. Each guest enjoys 5 tacos, 3 drinks (mezcal/beer), dessert, and café de olla (optional).
Is this tour good for solo travelers?
Absolutely. Many of our guests come alone or in couples, and the vibe is social and welcoming. You’ll leave with new friends (and maybe a favorite new mezcal).
Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?
Yes — vegetarian options are available at each stop. Let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
What will we do?
We’ll start with a taste from southern Mexico: citrus-marinated pork slow-roasted in banana leaves, served with tangy pickled onions, plus a standout vegetarian option. This stop is paired with a smoky Espadín mezcal from Oaxaca — earthy, herbaceous, and perfectly balanced with a cold beer.
Next, tacos take an international twist with this Michelin recommended taquería. Imagine confit pork belly layered with bold Asian-inspired flavors like hoisin, sriracha, and pickled vegetables. Here, you’ll sip a mezcal joven that’s clean and bright, the kind of spirit that refreshes your palate between bites.
Our third stop leans into smoke and fire: brisket rubbed and smoked low-and-slow, or miso-marinated beef with tangy toppings. You’ll also taste a smoked avocado dish that’s become a modern CDMX classic thanks to the New York Times’: The 25 Essential Dishes to Eat in Mexico City. This round comes with a blend of Cupreata and Criollo mezcals — young, mineral-driven, with a citrus edge that cuts beautifully through the richness of the food.
Finally, dessert. We’ll close with freshly fried churros dipped in chocolate or caramel with café de olla. It’s the perfect insider finish to a Mexico City night food tour– and the perfect beginning to a night of salsa dancing.
