Worth it?
Late, cheap and always open, El Gato Volador is the taco stand for hours when other places are shut: it runs 24 hours at the corner of Obregón and Insurgentes in Roma Norte. One creator orders campechano and steak tacos; another says to try the longaniza with cheese. It shows up on a taco crawl and in a personal ranking, so think of it as one stop on a crawl rather than a sit-down dinner.
Before you go
- Order the longaniza with cheese, one creator's pick.
- Campechano and steak tacos are the other orders in the posts.
- Use it for late-night tacos; it is open around the clock.
- For an upscale taco night instead, La Once Mil is on the Mexico City list.
