Best Hot Sauce

Taqueria Pico de Gallo

2618 S. Sixth Ave.

STAFF PICK: Let's say you're sitting around with your significant other and s/he says to you, "I'm in the mood for a real fire-in-the-hole hot sauce tonight. Where can we go?" Well, my friend, you get right in your car and get down to South Tucson's best-kept secret, Taqueria Pico de Gallo. Why Pico de Gallo? Because every table is fashioned with squeeze bottles full of a pink- and orange-colored habanero sauce that will make the burliest man cry like a hurtin' little boy. And no sir, this stuff ain't made in no factory in New York City;it's their own special recipe that you ain't gonna get anywhere else.
