Forget Taco Tuesday — we think that every day is the perfect occasion for Mexican food. Luckily, we have plenty of great Mexican restaurants here in Iowa, and there’s one tiny spot in particular that serves south-of-the-border food to die for. Check out La Regia Taqueria:

La Regia Taqueria got its start as a humble taco truck, and it was so popular that it soon moved into a space right next to its Mexican market. You'll find it at 436 Hwy. 1 West, Iowa City, IA 52246.
