Un pedacito de México en el corazón de Miami
Tortillas pressed fresh in our kitchen. Tacos al pastor, birria, pozole and cochinita pibil from Chef José Sandoval’s family recipes in Jalisco, served in a family-run taqueria on SW 142nd Ave.
We never went looking for these. Our guests handed them to us, one review at a time.

Auténtica Taquería began with an unexpected meeting between Alejandra Orrego, a Colombian mother of five, and Alejandra Sandoval, an entrepreneur from Nicaragua with a deep love for Mexican culture.
What started as a business deal became a friendship, and then a partnership built on family, faith and hard work, together with Alejandra’s husband, Chef José Sandoval of Jalisco, México.
