About

Rea's Tacos specializes in a variety of tacos, including Mexi Fried Chicken, slow-braised pork shoulder, and vegetarian cauliflower options, all served with fresh toppings and house-made crema. They also boast a selection of over 50 hot sauces and salsas, claimed to be the largest in Nelson. Founded by Laura Rea in Nelson in 2020, the business has evolved from a food cart to focus on catering, events, and cooking lessons. They are recognized for their house-made ingredients, slow-cooking methods, and unique spice blends.
