Let’s taco ‘bout how great the food is in Wayne County

On Main Street in Richmond, humble El Trebol Mexican Market and Restaurant serves up authentic Mexican tacos, along with burritos, tortas, tamales and some of the best guacamole in town. A little further to the east on U.S. 40, family-owned Lulu’s Tacos keeps hungry patrons coming back to enjoy traditional corn tortillas filled with flavorful shredded beef, carnitas, chicken and beef tongue washed down with a margarita “tower.”

Other Wayne County restaurants also put their own unique spins on tacos. The Cordial Cork & Wine Bar hosts a weekly Taco Tuesday special that also includes burritos and nachos — bonus! Another Historic Depot District mainstay, Firehouse BBQ and Blues loads up its mouthwatering Smokehouse Tacos with pulled chicken, pork or brisket before topping them off with black beans, lettuce and shredded cheese. The Red Front Pizza & Grill may be best known for its pizza, but also offers both hard and soft tacos, burritos and a taco salad.
