Not far from Camp Walker is Daegu’s favorite taqueria. For those who may not know Spanish, a taqueria is a taco shop, and Leo’s taco shop is simply delicious! He opened the restaurant in 2006 and has served Mexican food for nearly 20 years.
When you walk into the taqueria, there’s a warm energy where you immediately feel welcome. As a Puerto Rican, speaking Spanish with Leo was a joy as we are so far from other Spanish-speaking countries. There are Mexican touches throughout the restaurant too! From the vibrant colors and serape tablecloths to the music and even the staff's uniforms, it feels like a little piece of Mexico right here in Korea!
Service here is fabulous. The waitstaff was welcoming, helpful, and attentive to my family’s needs. Leo Chow’s has a varied menu with many Mexican dishes like nacho bowls, chimichangas, quesadillas, chili pork (sweet or spicy), rice pilaf, and taco rice. For the kids, they have a smaller plate with rice, quesadilla, chicken nuggets, and fries. I tried the pilaf and chili pork (sweet). My kids have gotten the kid's plate and they love it. Even my picky kid loved the quesadillas!
People from Daegu love Leo Chow's because of the taste of their food and the fun environment! You can make reservations, book group parties, dine in, and even take out. Anybody who loves Mexican cuisine should at least try it and judge for themselves!
