In Stockholm, you can find pretty much anything that you’re craving. It wasn’t always this way but now we have a thriving foodie scene to rival that of any other city. Stockholm’s Mexican restaurants are no exception to that rule, and with Mexican food (often) comes tacos! They’re the most versatile of dishes – filled with everything from carnitas to huitlacoche.
1. La Neta City
La Neta City boasts some seriously tasty tacos. The pulled pork taco offers mouthwateringly tender meat but if you want to kick it up a notch then indulge in the pineapple pork taco. Blending sweet and salty, it’s sensational. There are vegetarian options too but the menu isn’t huge – they focus on cooking a small menu.

2. Geronimo’s FGT
Geronimo’s FGT is such a fun spot and the vegan menu might even be larger than the other menu. From the classic carne asada taco with succulently marinated beef that melts in your mouth to the vibrant fish taco, with its crispy, batter-coated cod and zingy lime, these dishes really wow. Vegetarian options are equally impressive, with the mushroom and black bean taco stealing the spotlight.
