Make no mistake: This is big taco news for Dallas. Salsa Limon (also known to regulars as Salsita), the cult favorite Fort Worth taqueria, is opening Flor De Mayo – a breakfast, lunch, dinner and late-night spot with cocktails – today in the Mayflower Building on Akard in downtown Dallas.
Salsa Limon started as a food truck, but once their brick-and-mortar opened in Fort Worth, it became a hit with Cowtown crowds and led to four other locations and a fleet of trucks. The new Dallas location, Salsa Limon’s first outside of Fort Worth, will stick with Salsita’s ethos of “cellular sustainability … with its unique rainwater collection system, composting efforts, and onsite chicken raising at the Distrito location,” according to a press release. Expect to see a selection of organic produce on the menu, as well as cocktails and late-night eats.
The menu will feature a “‘greatest hits’ lineup of Mexico City street-style favorites with Oaxacan influence,” from “freshly made, light and fluffy red Spanish rice and sizzling tacos topped with a Oaxacan-inspired cabbage mix to warm and buttery quesadillas and Fort Worth-famous horchata.”
