Tacos El Gallo

El Cajon, San Diego · Mexican · $

The taco campechano is a border classic: a thin sheet of carne asada laid under adobada and pinto beans so you get char, spice and starch in one bite. El Gallo on North 2nd Street in El Cajon does it the Tijuana way, dressed con todo with cilantro, onion and a sharp salsa verde. It sits in a strip of auto shops and nobody drives out there by accident.
