The staff is friendly and the food was amazing! My husband's Ameca burrito was HUGE!! Fed us a couple of times ? the tortilla was on the thicker side and seemed a little under cooked, but nothing a bit of heating on our griddle.I can't wait to visit again!

I biked past them two years ago and the line out the door was crazy. Thankfully today I was able to pop in without a fuss and their burrito mojado was worth the wait. Put a little extra salsa on top that was available by the counter. No fatty pieces (went with asada) and it wasn’t full of fillers either. Friendly and efficient staff. Great experience…especially when you’ve been craving something to really sink your teeth into!

my dad brought me here because it reminds him of the taquerias in mexico which is difficult to find here. all the employees were so friendly and welcoming. almost felt like we were all friends. we were able to get a sample of the jamaica and horchata (everyone makes it differently so i wanted to test it out). they were a little too sweet but we added water and it was delicious.

Great vegan burritos, but too much meat on display for my taste. I made the burrito vegan by holding the cheese and sour cream and added an avocado. Yummy!

The best quality Mexican. Fresh tortillas and fabulous food. Was the first deeply nourishing meal I had in a while. Love all three locations.

I normally don’t write reviews but I had to this time.. I’m soo shocked that this place can even charge for what they gave us. For the record, I LOVE this taqueria it’s delicious every time but since covid they skimp! We ordered a side of rice and beans and when we opened the container they gave us literally a handful of each. The containers cost more for them than the food inside! So we called to let them know and the lady really said that’s how it comes.. they only give 3-4oz of rice/beans but charge $4 each. I mean rice and beans are the cheapest thing they serve so I would expect to get enough for at least 3 people to have as a side. I’ve been going to this place for years and never had an experience like this. It’s a shame but I won’t be giving them my business anymore.

Good mexican food, spice but good enough

You can't put refried beans in your burrito. What kind of tacquiera won't let you sub refried beans for baked beans? So I got the super nachos. They sucked too, the chips were same chips they serve with dip while you wait for your food.

The definition of no frill amazing food. We got carne asada tacos and chicken quesadilla, both were flavorful and to the point!

This place is all hype. First and foremost parking is a struggle and cleanliness is definitely not a priority at this establishment. While the tacos are a good size with hand made tortillas, there is nothing special about them and the food and especially the micheladas are overpriced. Steer away from the micheladas here.
