A more modest amount of protein would lend to a cleaner look. If those onions are supposed to be pickled, pickle them harder. Maybe with the Jalapeños and make a small salad. The garnish doesn’t make sense for the way you eat tacos. Am I supposed to pick up a taco and then pick up peices of jalapeno and onion to eat with it?
Birria tacos aren’t legit unless you serve them with the jus for dipping.

Maybe I’m out of touch, but I would rather foods that are meant to be eaten with hands to not be sitting in a sauce which makes that impractical

I would just consider the question—how will this be to eat? As a photo it is great. Colors look good. As the person eating it..how will they eat those onions and jalapeños? How will they get the puree on the taco?
I would consider the pickled vegetables either on the side or in the taco. And purée in a ramekin or thinned as needed and drizzled on top

Can we just let a taco be a taco? Does it need a puree?

Sure, let’s sauce the BOTTOM of the taco. It’s not as if the only point to a taco is to put the stuff inside. Sheesh.

I wouldn’t want to try to pick up a taco that was sitting in a pool of sauce. I would also want the pickled onions and jalapeños to be inside the tacos. I’m afraid your efforts to “plate” these tacos is working against their enjoyability

Have those colours been enhanced? Never seen a lime that green before.
That puree color is too saturated
