Salsa etc tasted fresh, but it took a long time for the single server to serve the five members in our group, so my food went cold. Other customers left rather than wait. Our group enjoyed their tacos overall. Nachos made with nasty processed cheese.

BBQ pork corn tacos were a yummy appetizer to start with. Chicken quesadilla was big, crunchy, with lots of meat and cheese and pickled onion and cilantro garnish - tasted wonderful with sour cream on the side :) The tortilla soup was excellent with a strong savoury bean flavour and crispy nacho topping! There are big windows facing the LRT train, great location ? Service was quick and friendly ? highly recommend this place! Will keep this restaurant in mind next time we are in the area ?

Never have I had such perfectly cooked juicy shrimp at a taco joint. They cooked it on the pan, it wasn’t sitting in a hot table like some places. The fish taco was yummy too. Both times I went there was no line so my food was made fresh. Pico de gallo was very fresh tasting. Two tacos were enough for me.

For the first time, I visit this restaurant and order a vegetable burrito and there are no vegetables. The chips are normal and with no salsa. They give sour cream with a quesadilla and it tastes bad. overall it is a bad experience. I will never visit this restaurant again.

Nothing special, average tacos. Given the prices you can find better tacos in the town.

Between us we had an order of tacos, burrito, and a bowl and all were delicious and fresh. Will definitely order again.

I have become addicted to this place, now. Restaurant is very clean and the staff is so friendly along with being professional. The house made things like, Fajita Vegetables, dipping sauces(salsa), Tortillas, are amazing. The eye catching part for me is when staff does the partial cooking in front of me. My family just loves this environment.

Food was delicious and they added extra salsa when I asked for it.

I would give it 6 stars if I can!

Excellent food, made quick, and the staff are super nice and friendly! Their crispy chicken is low-key incredible, and you can't really go wrong with anything they serve! Highly recommend!
