Tacos are savory and delicious, and very afforable. There's usually a line but they are quick. A great space to stop for some authentic and tasty meal!

The tacos here are good! Tacos served here are on the small side, but loaded with meats of your choice: Asada, Al Pastor, Chicharron, Chorizo w/potatoes, Lengua, Carnitas, Cabeza, Chicken. Meats are pre-cooked not made to order. I didn't mind. The tortillas tasted steam vs. flat top grilled. Salsas are great. This place is a complete dive. Dive in my brain translate to: Good Food. No frills, friendly service. If your a fine dining snob, you probably won't like it here.

What happened to this place? It once was my favorite go to Mexican food spot. Last couple of times I've been there, the asada meat was nothing but nerve endings. My brother had the same result with the asada meat. Their service is still great and the workers treat everyone with respect. But, I'm highly disappointed with the quality of meat.

Great welcoming service. Food is tasty and consistent. Love the veggie tostada and all the tacos! Fast and easy!

Great bang for your buck here! I tried the al pastor wet burrito (red sauce) and carne asada nachos. The wet burrito came with chips and some lettuce packed in the box. It was huge and I could only finish half of the burrito. I'm terms of flavor, I preferred the al pastor over the carne asada but the nachos still hit hard. I got takeout but they currently offer outdoor seating! It's nice and shaded.

The food and service was all great! I walked in and ordered: carne asada nachos with everything (not melted shredded cheese but the saucy milky kind), al pastor burrito and 2 carne asada tacos ( fixings on the side because of BFs preference), Horchata and a few other drinks for me and BF. Food was made just right on the order and was packed with flavor. The meat was fresh and didn't taste like it was left for days. Both the salsa verde and roja are good as well. My taste buds leaned towards the salsa verde. We couldn't finish all the food between the both of us. Food was made to order and made right away. Covid protocols were all in place and followed to the T. There are out door tables and plenty of parking. No restroom use as well due to the protocols. Can't wait for my next food fix
