It is also unfortunately possible to find some very sub-standard tacos, so, we have picked out some of our favourite restaurants in Mumbai that we know serve some mean tacos.
Sammy Sosa, Oshiwara, Western Suburbs - The city's longest reigning Mexican restaurant has never disappointed its diners. Sammy Sosa in a legend and has managed to stay popular through the years consistently dishing out good food. Their Whacko Tacos as they like to call them are crunchy hard shell corn tacos filled with lettuce, cheese and your choice of fillings.
