Definitely the fanciest of the lot, this fine dining outfit at Chijmes is by the folks behind Senor Tacos. The restaurant had a menu overhaul last year, and the highlights of expanded taco list include 10 elevated and progressive filling options like Kurobuta pork al pastor, roasted dorper lamb with eggplant tahini and tiger prawn tempura with mango and coconut.

Guzman Y Gomez
Guzman Y Gomez
This casual Mexican eatery does all the basics: nachos, quesadillas, burritos and of course, tacos. Fillings include pulled pork with chipotle adobo, fire-grilled flank steak and seared fish fillets with a light lime and garlic sauce. For sides and drinks, choose from the ever-popular churros, frozen margaritas or Coronas. And if you work out West, fear not, there’s a new-ish branch at Star Vista, too.

Senor Taco
Senor Taco
Look no further if you need a late-night fill after a boozy evening at Clarke Quay. This Mexican taqueria serves some of the best soft tacos (in a corn tortilla of course) in town with options like their signature Al Pastor pork tacos, chorizo tacos and the decadent Baja fish tacos—along with burritos, flautas and killer margaritas. Our secret guilty pleasure involves grabbing an outside table on Taco Tuesdays, when tacos are half-off.

Super Loco
The Duxton Hill outlet is snazzier, of course, but we have a soft spot for this Robertson Quay offshoot, not least because of their cute taco window that’s open for lunch (when the rest of the restaurant is closed). Other than the usual al pastor and grilled fish tacos, there’s the cordero taco with minced lamb and the vegetarian hongos taco with wild mushroom.

The shells are soft flour, just FYI. Wash them all down with fun cocktails like frozen margaritas and the makgeolita, a mix of tequila and Korean rice wine.
