Absolutely Tremendous Flavor, Portions, Food Freshness and Quality and Value. Great friendly service, clean, Tacos Lupita has to be my favorite addition to the Gloucester food scene in a long time.
Truly authentic Mexican tacos, $2 each. (They also have lots other meat options and Latin American dishes, of course.) I got two tacos the other day, one with chicken and one with cow tongue.
Yes, cow tongue! Try it – it’s really good! I know that the thought of one’s own tongue and teeth chewing up the tongue of a dead cow grosses a lot of people out. But the meat is tender and very flavorful!
Delicious!!!
Tacos Lupita is at 63 Washington St. in Gloucester. Open Monday through Saturday 11AM-9PM.

At Tacos Lupita Gloucester Location Monday February 25th They Will Be Giving Out $1 Tacos to Celebrate One Year In Business In Gloucester.
There has been an overwhelming outpouring of support for Tacos Lupita and on Monday they will be giving back to all those people that have made it a regular stop for friendly service, delicious food at really reasonable prices. Tacos Lupita is without question top 6 restaurants in Gloucester IMO.
Swing by and say hi on Monday and tell ‘em Joey sent you. $1 Tacos. I get the roast pork off the spit every time. And every time it’s just that damn delicious!
All fresh ingredients. Nothing out of a can.

The food. As Joey is fond of saying, Cape Ann is blessed with great restaurants and it keeps on getting better. I have been trying out Tacos Lupita and will have a full review once I make it back up the right side of the menu after already eating my way down the left.
(Click image for menu). From the start I can see why Joey has been ecstatic about this place. The mirror shiny ceramic tables to the open kitchen showing fresh ingredients being chopped up. You can tell just by walking in it’s going to be good.
OK, I have had the Mulita (wow, homemade corn tortillas bursting with cheese and in my case I tried pork sausage), huaraches, burritos, tacos, and the Mexican Bistec Plate. All great I’ll just point out two. The lowly taco and the bistec plate. I’ve been to Mexico five times, once for two months back in 1973. I am always looking for that non-Americanized Mexican food without having to go to Mexico. Lupita serves authentic versions of the taco and bistec. The fresh onions and other stuff in the taco and the seasoning of the bistec (a very decent portion of thin grilled steak) are killer. I don’t need to go to Cuernavaca again. I can stay on the island.
Before I write a full review I have to have the fish taco (this being Gloucester and all), as well as the Tortilla soup. The last time I was in Cuernavaca I had tortilla soup every afternoon for ten days straight. It was an addiction. A good one. Post a comment if you have had it because dang, although open 11AM to 9PM daily they are not open on Sunday. I’ll have to wait.
Fun Fact: Lupita is a girl’s name. The shortened form of Guadalupe which refers to the Virgin Mary as she miraculously appeared to a peasant boy in Guadalupe, Mexico.
Since I ate everything before I was able to photograph it, just click on the screaming Homie and Rubber Duck for photos on the Tacos Lupita website.
One last tip: Try the Fanta Orange soda in the bottle. It is made with real sugar and not high fructose corn syrup. Sodas tasted better when we were kids. They still sell them but you have to read the side of the bottle.
[edit] One more very last tip. The salsa verde. Make sure to get the red and green salsa on the side and that green one, (that would be salsa verde in español), is the real deal. The red is too but as in Mexico, it is the green one that will sneak up on you.

I built it for them when they asked. Hope you like it.
Probably the most useful thing on there is the pictures of food which weren’t prepared special for the website, they were just photos of dishes they made for customers while I was there. Allso the menu with prices on it gives you an idea of just how affordable it is.
Last time there Dee Noble was there with 3 kids and the whole bill for sit down lunch was $20 and change. Seriously? How do you beat that?

Joey– Gotta get the scoop on this… Saw the sign last night and had to grab a pic on the way in to work this morning. Could it be? The best Latin American food around without the (bullet-dodging) drive to Lynn? Just steps from Downtown? Say it IS so…!!! Dean
