Bajo Sexto Taco

Downtown & the Gulch


A bajo sexto is the big guitar used by mariachi bands. It's a fitting moniker for an Oaxacan taqueria located inside the Country Music Hall of Fame. The beef, pork and vegetables inside these tender, perfectly seasoned tacos are locally sourced; the tortillas are handmade. Other highlights? Nachos, margaritas and the patio.
