Our Story
Authentic Mexican Flavors in Edmonton
Taqueria El Chingon is an authentic Mexican taqueria located in a charming back-alley boutique setting in the vibrant Ritchie neighborhood along Whyte Avenue in Edmonton.
Operated by a dedicated mother-and-daughter team who source the highest quality ingredients, our establishment has earned a loyal following for exceptional handcrafted Mexican cuisine. We are renowned for our handmade corn tortillas pressed fresh daily, which form the foundation of our exceptional tacos.
Our signature offering is authentic al pastor tacos—a dish that has proven difficult to find in Edmonton until now. Each taco is generously stuffed, often requiring both hands to eat, and features perfectly caramelized onions, smoky meat, and gooey cheese finished with a hint of fresh lime.
Taqueria El Chingon is a sister establishment of the popular 3 Amigos restaurant group, though we maintain our own distinct identity as an intimate, family-run taqueria serving the best tacos in Edmonton.
