And all were awesome. AWESOME. And the place delivers! And I can't remember the name. Oh it was good. For less than $7!

I need to know the name of this place. Although El Maguey's prices are close to that as well.

As soon as I saw the thread title and author, I knew the word "taco" would appear in the post. :cool:

El Maguey doesn't do Civiche, though...or shrimp tostadas...iirc.
It is on Woodson near Lackland and it is in an old Taco Bell building. Near a Walgreens. I don't live close enough to get delivery but I wish I did.
That's like 6 blocks from where I grew up. I try not to go back there too often. A bit further down Woodsen to the south, there used to be a smallish mall that couldn't get any tenets. At some point a really good Chinese restaurant took over the space of one of the department stores. I can't remember the name, but it was really top notch - not like most of the Chinese takeout quality stuff you get today. But the point is that is was in a really large space and it was absolutely huge for a restaurant. I remember that to go to the bathroom, I think you had to walk a long way and then go down some stairs and then past a bunch of doors with Chinese writing on them. It was quite an experience for a young boy. What that has to do with the original post, I have no idea.

Eventually they tore it down and put up a strip mall. I think there's an officemax and a schnucks there now.
