Las Cabañas Mexican Grill & Taqueria
Chiapas-Style Mexican
A marinated pork spit spinning in the window pulls in foot traffic on MLK Way, which is basically the oldest form of advertising. This Chiapas-style taqueria in Berkeley orders you outside to pick up your al pastor, the ruby meat sweet and charred, with pineapple and a green oil salsa alongside. The chicken mole is a serious plate when you want it. Noah's Ark animals frolic across a mural on the wall, keeping things cheerful.

“This Chiapas-style Mexican restaurant near downtown Berkeley has a dedicated section for al pastor tacos, beckoning pedestrians with a marinated pork spit.”

Chicken mole plate
“For something more substantial, check out the chicken mole plate, boneless chicken covered in a velvety, bold sauce that has shades of acidity, sesame seed nuttiness, chile piquancy and robust chocolatey notes.”
