Top-tier pastor and asada at street prices, and a salsa that does not negotiate.
El Poblano #1 is the taco stand locals send their visiting friends to, and the visitors come back converts. The tacos al pastor and carne asada run genuinely top-notch (fresh, fast, full of flavor), the tortas hold their own, and the prices stay honest. When the tables fill up, the staff have been known to run full car service to people parked alongside, which tells you everything about how this place treats its regulars.
Fair warning on the salsa: it's delicious and it is not kidding. Start with a drop. It's an open-air operation, so expect the open air.
Local tips
Busy is a good sign here, not a problem; the trompo works best at full spin. If there's no table, ask about eating from the car; they've done it before.
What to order
Tacos al pastor first, carne asada second, a torta if you're settling in. Respect the salsa until it has earned your trust. It won't, but try.
