Orinoco is the gold standard for norteño-style tacos in Mexico City — think perfectly charred carne asada, costilla, and chorizo cooked over mesquite on a massive parrilla. The flour tortillas are made fresh and the salsas are excellent. It's a small chain with several locations but maintains consistent quality; the Roma Norte branch on Insurgentes is the most convenient for most visitors.
