  My wife and I love trying tacos, so having seen this place in passing one time, we made a special trip to get lunch there today. We were not disappointed! While most times the fillings are great, many taco places pass on making the tortillas from scratch. Taqueria el Paso definitely takes the time to make them, and boy do they make them right! Soft, not overly dry like a store bought tortilla, these little corny pillows of heaven cradle the expertly seasoned contents in a tight roll of loving awesome. My wife loves carnitas and initially ordered that, though they were out. So we opted for the carne asada and lengua, our other two favorites. The lengua was super tender and flavorful. The carne asada was perfectly seasoned. Then came the sauce. He only said that it was "hot sauce" and while it did hold a very mild heat (by my standards and by the fact that my wife could eat it), it too was bottled perfection. It was some sort of spicy cilantro lime sauce that just worked in harmony with the salty seasoning of the beef, onions, and cilantro already embraced by the warm tortilla. You could fill an old, worn boot with it and still come away from the meal happily satisfied. Need to scratch a taco itch? This is the place!
