El Progreso #14, to which some might refer colloquially to as "Prison Tacos," is a Mexican grocery and carniceria on a shabby stretch of Boulevard, adjacent to a creepy, gutted Mrs. Winner's and just steps from the looming federal penitentiary. It's the kind of ramshackle place an average in-towner might not give a second glance, but those are almost always the places worth stopping for! SO...Don't chicken out- because inside- Taco Nirvana Awaits!
