Acambaro Flautas


8th Street

Acambaro Mexican Restaurant
Enjoy their amazing chips and salsa that have been winning over hearts and stomachs since opening in 1996. The full bar is known for their exceptional margaritas and daily happy hour from 4pm to 7pm. Decide between traditional street tacos, beef or chicken flautas, and something a little outside of the tortilla like the fajita chicken taco salad.

El Rinconcito Restaurant y Taqueria
Open for early morning breakfast options including their birria tacos (shredded beef) and quesabirrias (cheese quesadilla filled with shredded beef) and consome (broth) that you drown or dip them in. Good luck finding these in-house made tortillas and authentic dishes anywhere else.

el SEÑOR de los TACOS bar & grill
Stick to the classic street tacos or venture into silky, savory birria (shredded goat meat), carnitas, or barbacoa (shredded beef) at this popular 8th Street spot.

King Burrito & Taqueria
Call-in, dine-in, or drive-thru. The real question is taco vs. burrito? Try one of each and ask for them smothered in queso sauce.

If you weren’t reading this you may never know about this location. Their tacos are a hidden gem near downtown Rogers.

Supermercado Taranda
One of the few taquerias in Rogers that use traditional yellow corn tortillas and serves some of the juiciest carne asada (beef) tacos. The butcher offers ceviche made with catfish you can buy by the pound for the entire family. This isn’t your mom’s cooking, this is grandma’s kitchen.

Yeyo’s Mezcaleria y Taqueria
Yeyo’s is elevating traditional Mexican food to a never before seen upscale gourmet street style while focusing on sustainability. Not to mention the tortillas are made in house at their Bentonville location. Chef’s favorite is the suadero taco, a thin cut of beef, which is a staple in Mexico City and very unlikely to find anywhere but here.
