Best Tacos al Pastor in Edmonton

About Our Tacos al Pastor

At PiKanté, Tacos al Pastor are crafted with the same devotion to authenticity that defines everything we make. The pork is marinated overnight in a blend of guajillo and ancho chiles, achiote paste, fresh pineapple juice, and a medley of Mexican spices. This long marinade ensures every fibre of the meat is infused with deep, complex flavour.

Pam and Ken bring the vibrant spirit of Mexican taco stands to Edmonton with these pastor tacos. The meat is cooked until the edges caramelise, creating a beautiful contrast between crispy char and tender, juicy pork. Topped with fresh pineapple chunks, chopped cilantro, and white onion, each taco is a celebration of classic Mexican street food done right.

Why Our Tacos al Pastor Stands Out

What makes our Tacos al Pastor special is the traditional marinade and the patience behind it. We don't take shortcuts with pre-made sauces or artificial colourings. Every component is prepared from scratch, from the chile adobo to the hand-cut pineapple garnish. The result is a taco that tastes like it came straight from a Mexico City taquería.
