Choosing between a burrito and a torta at Tacos Tamix starts with the format: a flour tortilla or a sandwich. From there, the menu gives you several variations to compare. Here is how to read those choices before your next stop at a Tamix truck in Los Angeles.
Start With the Burrito Options
The regular burrito description lists a flour tortilla with rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, and salsa. The menu also lists a burrito with extra melted cheese, a burrito with two meats of your choice, and a Burrito Only Meat. These are separate options, so choose the listing that matches the kind of filling you want.
The Veggi Burrito is described with rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, and salsa, without meat. There is also a Burrito Lengua / Tripa, described with tender lengua or crispy tripa. Ask about the available meat choices when ordering.
Compare the Tortas
The regular torta lists beans, lettuce, tomato, avocado, and jalapeño; the Spanish menu identifies the bread as telera. Other listings include Torta Oaxaqueña, Torta de Tasajo, and Torta Lengua / Tripa.
If you want tasajo, look for the Torta de Tasajo entry. If you are curious about the Torta Oaxaqueña, ask what comes with it: its menu description identifies the style without giving a full ingredient list.
Choose by the Ingredients You Want
Start with the burrito section when you want a flour tortilla and the listed rice and bean filling, or compare its meat focused variations. Start with the torta section when you want telera bread and sandwich toppings. If an ingredient matters to your order, confirm it with the team.
