[ "How 'bout …" is the logical extension of our tagline "Where you wanna eat?" Because we've all been there when someone says "Where you wanna eat?" and then everyone stands around a little awkwardly until someone cautiously offers up "How 'bout …" and then the name of a restaurant. It's also a way for us to highlight the restaurants that we want to highlight. Here it goes. ]
Taqueria El Crucero is one of Waco's most loved family-owned Mexican food restaurants. Located at 2505 Robinson Drive, less than a mile off of Waco's famous traffic circle, El Crucero offers all of the traditional Mexican food favorites, plus the legendary Oso burrito. Made famous by and for the Baylor students who frequent El Crucero, The Oso burrito is stuffed with rice, beans and chicken and covered with salsa verde and sour cream.
It's great for ... fixing that lunchtime Mexican food craving. Crucero is fantastic, authentic Mexican food — the enchiladas and burritos are awesome — in a comfortable setting.
We recommend … the Oso burrito. It's a big burrito stuffed with rice and pork and topped with salsa verde and sour cream. And that lead's me to ...
Don't leave without trying ... the green sauce. It's the ingredient that puts the Oso over the top. But don't stop there, try dousing just about everything on the menu with the green sauce. It's hard to go wrong.
Heads up ... it's cash only. So stop by the ATM otw.
WacoFork folks say ... "There is something about this square block just off the circle that makes it like no other place on earth. The most impressive thing, is this little slice of heaven called Crucero. I'm not sure if the food or the humble couple that own the place have me feeling like nothing bad has ever happened each time I leave there." -- benya
