Readers crown Phoenix Mexican restaurant Top Taco 2026. 'It's heaven'

In the last few weeks, Taco Chelo has swept nearly every taco award in Phoenix, from all four categories at Taco Fest to its latest accolade, the title of Top Taco champ in The Republic's fourth annual Top Taco readers' choice contest.
