About Mothers Tacos
Mothers Tacos brings a soulful Mexican street food experience to the heart of Napa, offering a refreshing alternative to the region's more formal dining options. The focus is on ancestral techniques, highlighted by fresh tortillas crafted from house-ground masa and meats cooked on a traditional vertical trompo for authentic flavor. The atmosphere is lively and colorful, anchored by a sun-drenched patio that invites diners to linger over a relaxed meal. It is an ideal destination for locals and travelers alike who appreciate bold, honest flavors in a setting that values quality over white-tablecloth formality.

"The inside is very small so you can eat outside. Probably nice between April and October but otherwise bring a jacket. Tacos were fantastic. Great tortilla. Plenty of meat. Had the Al pastor and asada and both had generous amounts of meat and a nice char. I can’t confirm but I assume they’re cooked over charcoal. The hype was real. I’ll be back often."
