Alegria Tacos

I won’t come to Fort Lauderdale without eating a Torta at Alegria! It’s the best!

Great tacos (Try the Al Pastor!) served with a smile in this cramped little taco joint! The staff is very warm and friendly and treats you like family after just a few visits. They have a variety of interesting and unusual soft drinks/beverages including Mexican Coca Cola. I've only ever had the tacos here but there's a torta that looks amazing too!

This place has vibes as good as its name ("Alegría" meaning "Happiness" in Spanish). First of all, you will be served by the owners, who know how to make you feel like you're visiting family. The food is delicious, the portions are large and the pricing is very affordable. Not too many tables inside, but you can definitely grab and go. I was lucky enough to get a table before rush hour, and had a great time just watching locals coming in and out and being treated as regular customers. No wonder the place has been there for 13+ years under the same administration!
