This taco has withstood the test of time. One of the original seven tacos Camino served when it opened in 2014, the beer chicken taco still reigns supreme — even against the near 20 options on the Warehouse District spot’s menu.
This American take on Mexican cuisine combines house-made corn tortillas with crispy, yet juicy, beer-marinated chicken that’s been deep-fried for an undeniable crunch. You’ll find traditional toppings such as lettuce, tomato, pickled red onion and queso fresco, which balance out the flavors.
The addition of Camino’s house-made chipotle ranch ups the ante with just the right bit of tang to complement any taco, while welding together the toppings in a way that’s exciting when you take that first bite.
“Who doesn’t like deep-fried chicken and a little bit of a spicy crema,” says bartender Bronwyn Demich. “This taco has all the best stuff in it.” 1300 W. Ninth St., Cleveland, 216-621-8226, caminocleveland.com
