HH Nachos
When I got the nachos, I couldn't believe the portion size. The plate was packed with fresh chips and every single chip was loaded with a myriad of ingredients. Not only did the nachos have the standard beans, meat, cheese, sour cream, etc... but it also had fresh salsa, onions, cilantro, radish, serranos, and queso oaxaca. Having so many different elements in a dish can cause ingredients to fight with each other, but the nachos at Amor Y Tacos are made with purpose. Every bite a beautiful cross section with very solid ratios and textures. There were no naked chips and every bite was better than the last.

HH Shortrib Taco
The short rib taco was on the smaller side, but it was packed with flavor. The short rib itself was incredibly juicy and flavorful. The chile sauce, onions, and cilantro provided some additional depth and really helped prevent the short rib from overwhelming the taste buds. Very solid taco.
