I had wanted to see the Orchid Festival at the Botanical Gardens and Mike read that it was margarita day, so we decided to go see the orchids and then go to a really authentic Mexican restaurant down on Cherokee Street in St. Louis. The people and the food were very authentic, but I don't think the margaritas were any more authentic than the kind that come out of a bottle at our local Mexican restaurants.
Taqueria Bronco is run by a hispanic family that have not learned much English, yet. It was difficult for the waitress to convey to us that the tacos only have onions and cilantro on them (not the American style of lettuce and cheese).
We started with margaritas, chips and salsa/guac and some nachos. There guac is very chunky and fresh. Mike doesn't like guac and this was too much for just me, but I enjoyed it.
Mike had the carnitas tacos and I had shrimp tacos. They were good. They weren't huge, but we were plenty filled up with the chips and nachos. The menu was difficult to follow, and I think this is such a legit Mexican restaurant that you could probably tell them what you want and they'd make it.
