“Loved it here. Authentic, hand made tortillas, and natural drinks. Had four tacos, two tongue and two asada. Both very good, meat was nicely seasoned amd tender. Came with all the fixings on the side too. Also had the Menudo. Menudo was a bit thicker than my norm, but had good flavor and it came with plenty of handmade tortillas as well. I asked for a couple more things too add and they were kind enough to provide that for me. Had the Tamarindo drink, so good and refreshing.I loved it here. Authentic handmade tortillas and natural drinks. Order four tacos, two tongue and two asada. Both very good, the meat was well seasoned and tender.

It was my first time there so I haven't tried anything but the tacos and they were your standard fare which I do enjoy a great deal. The spicy hit sauce was good with a little bit to it. Great place to drop in for some food truck tacos.“

“I've been coming here for a few years and these are consistently the best tacos in the city.The light fry they do on the tortillas and the grilled onions really set these over the top in terms of flavor and texture. Very rich salsas with a moderate spice, which are so good I use them for other stuff too (like chicken wings or to add some spice to a soup) if I have extra. Sometimes they'll throw in a roasted pepper or two with the order (I believe they're serrano?) which is always a nice treat.Service is always very friendly and prompt. Great overall experience, I couldn't recommend this place enough.“

“The best thing about this restaurant is if you ask them to put a little burn on the corn tortillas, they do it very well. Of course you shouldn't have to ask. I had the Carne guisada which is nit a common thing to find so that was great but I would rate it as just okay. I would say that you would enjoy going to Dona Julia's but it isn't amazing.“

Several brands of warm tortillas, the sweet bread is very good, they sell freshly made tamales, I have also had champurrado, and they have the restaurant right there, the dishes are very well served, good seasoning. I gave it 4 stars because the hallways are very close together, apart from that everything is very good.“
