About Taqueria El Cometa
Taqueria El Cometa is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in Las Cruces (88001), NM, independently run.
There is no star rating on file for Taqueria El Cometa yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
It is on El Paseo Road in Las Cruces. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.
From its public listing: takeout.
Call ahead or check the map listing before a special trip. Small taquerias change hours often, and our data refreshes on a schedule, not live.
