✨You may find this just along the road and you might miss it whenever people flock here. So far we found this as the best and most worth it place for tacos.
We’ve tried another famous Mexican place but truly liked El Chapo’s more as its quality is more than worth its price.
✨ Their Clasico soft tacos choice feature all-three taco choices on their menu which are: Chicharitos Pork, Spicy Chicken, and Sirloin Beef. This is a great choice if you want to sample their tacos first.
As of writing it is currently priced at P180

Parking Availability and Tips:
There isn’t much free parking available in the area as San Juan La Union has recently passed an ordinance that fines vehicles that would park on the streets.
You have to look for paid parking lots or just take a tricycle to reach it.
Just in case you’re walking it’s just a bit of 1-2 minutes away from Flotsam Jetsam. If you found the restaurant named Seawadeeka, El Chapo’s is just on the other side of the road.
El Chapo’s La Union branch that opened just this 2022
El Chapo’s offer tacos, burritos, quesadilla, and horchata which are great Mexican finger foods for your food trip! They have only two (Katipunan and La Union branches) branches that offer these finger foods. Their UP Town Center branch only offers horchata on their cart.
In case you want to add El Chapo’s for your next food trip around QC, (especially on your Katipunan food crawl) and La Union, we advise you to go on a food walk with a party so you can sample various foods and share them.
El Chapo’s El Classico is a great choice if you want to sample their different flavors first before choosing one that your palate likes. In case you don’t like cilantro, just make sure to tell them about it so they’ll know.
Fact: Some people don’t like cilantro because it tastes and smells like soap for them due to a certain gene.
El Chapo’s currently has three branches Katipunan, La Union, and UP Town Center. Their UP Town Center branch however is just a cart that offers horchata and does not have the finger foods if you’re keen on having a taste of their El Clasico.
Amazingly, the Katipunan Branch is actually their first branch! The La Union branch was just opened this 2022.
