A neighborhood taqueria in the Centaur Village plaza

Tacos Ay Ay Ay has cooked for Lafayette since 2016, with recipes rooted in the kitchens of Jalisco and Zacatecas. It started as a taco counter and grew into a full menu of tortas, gorditas, menudo, and plates, served from the corner of the Centaur Village shopping center on the north side of town.

Why us

Why regulars keep coming back

Ten-plus meats, hand-cut

Pick from more than ten fillings, from al pastor and carne asada to barbacoa, carnitas, lengua, and tripa, cut and seasoned in the kitchen.

A salsa bar you build yourself

Every order comes with the self-serve salsa bar, where the salsas are made from scratch and you load up as much as you want.

Open early, seven days

We open at 7 a.m. every day, so breakfast and a bowl of menudo are ready early, not just at lunch.
