Made with classic Mexican spices and the freshest ingredients, these zesty chicken tinga tacos are served with soft corn tortillas, fresh guacamole, onions, and cilantro. They're saucy, spicy perfection.

The flavor was incredible. This was one of our favorite meals from here we have gotten. The instructions were a little complicated and led to some broken tortilla but the flavors made up for it!

I really like this dish. I just added some greens and hot sauce.

The chicken was great, but additional onion or pickled radish garnish would be even better.

Chicken and tortillas were great, but a larger portion of the guacamole and the addition of salsa (more veggies) would've made it even better!

Corn tortillas were all ripped and not useable. No lime included...
