The Best Taco in Grand Rapids

A former drive-thru on Division is now the home of the best taco in GR.

My wife and I conducted our own little taco challenge this past Saturday by visiting 6 taco joints in the Grand Rapids area. All six are undeniably authentic and worth the side trip from one's suburban home. Of the six, Taqueria San Jose on Division avenue is the hands down favorite.

Taqueria San Jose gives an ample amount of cilantro (versus lettuce). Its salsa and roasted pepper combination are deadly delicious. For $1.75, how can you go wrong?

I love the burritos at El Granjero, however, the tacos are equally good.
