Round 1 of the Pierce County Taco Bracket is now closed. Check out the results here

Last week we asked you to tell us your favorite traditional and nontraditional spots to grab tacos in Pierce County, and you certainly delivered. We’ve compiled a list of 32 restaurants, taquerias and taco trucks throughout the area and created the Tacoma Taco Bracket.

Now you get to vote and decide on the area’s favorite.

There was one standout favorite from submissions via our poll, but we’ll keep that to ourselves — who knows, anything can happen! Local favorite Taco Street is matched up with Los Tapatios, while Red Star Taco Bar is up against Tacos Guaymas Tacoma in another tight matchup.

Those are just two of the 16 choices you have to make in Round 1. So scroll down and take a minute to go through these head-to-head face-offs and help decide which 16 locations will move on to round 2 next week.

Several readers suggested the tacos at Wildfin at Point Rustin and Top of Tacoma in McKinley. We decided to exclude them from this bracket as tacos are not a focal point of either restaurant and there are plenty of other taquerias in the region.

Voting will close at noon on Friday.
