DARK SIDE TACOS – Mexican
Two partners run this taco outfit out of The Block Jax, the outdoor food hall and music yard on Gate Parkway, and the brief is simple: good food, local ingredients, no fuss. The adobo chicken taco arrives under roasted red pepper salsa, house aioli and a Hawaiian salsa; ground beef, pulled pork and a sweet potato version round out the line. Sides are Spanish rice, black beans and Mexican street corn, with chips served under salsa, guacamole or both. The salsas are made in-house and the meats slow-roasted. Nachos too. The same kitchen also caters events right across North Florida.
