Auckland’s new-style taqueria, cantina and tortilleria in City Works Depot

Grounded in tradition, our modern tacos bring you the best of both worlds.

We craft our corn tortillas for our tacos by hand daily, use locally-sourced fresh produce and build our recipes on hundreds of years of tradition - something that results in simply delicious tacos.

It’s our honour to share the beauty of our homeland’s food with you; Mexican cuisine is drenched in history (it’s even officially considered a cultural heritage of humanity by UNESCO).

When you join us at Tacoteca, you can expect an array of delicious taco staples from barabacoa and al pastor to vegan options, chilaquiles and antojitos (“little snacks”) like salsas, taquitos and queso fundido to feast on.

While you’re at it, we’ve got an incredible seleciton of wines, margaritas (like tamarind or passionfruit), cervezas (beers) and lots of non-alcholic options like horchata (a drink made from rice with vanilla and cinnamon) to enjoy too!

Love our tortillas? You’re in luck! Because we make tortillas in-house with our artisan tortilla machine (fondly referred to by the team as ‘Lola’), bundles of fresh tortillas are also available to take home - just as you can from tortillerias across Mexico.

We’re open 7 days a week and have lots of onsite parking, so join us for your next meal, afternoon drink, brunch with the family or book in a gathering with us. We’d love to see you!
