I have ordered one taco and I have been waiting for 20 minutes. Three couples have ate and left and no taco??? Really dissatisfying since just wanted to try this place because it’s next to Dixie line. Well I would not recommend this place at all. Shoot should have just gone to tj.

$1.50 fish tacos on Wednesdays.Very stylish inside with large paintings of iconic Latinos.Fresh air on the patio.One of the few food places in this shopping area (besides McDonald's).

Best Taco Tuesday in town! Al pastor is the best meat choice they have. Clean and tasty menudo. Keep in mind this is not a restaurant, its a shop. Smaller staff, when high demand, wait times will be higher. Definitely recommend!

They serve tacos all day! Pretty good breakfast burrito section too. The horchata was great!

The adovada tacos are very good I tried the asada ones too the mulita and the cabesa so far so good i really like this place the cabesa tacos are more expensive I don't know why but it's okay because it's worth it ? sorry I didn't took a picture of the tacos but I was really hungry this is the mulita i would defenetly recommend this place ?.

Very nasty to attitude to me. I’m asian, like everything I was saying to here was asking for too much. Why open in America if you’re not gonna be treating your non Mexican customers like your Mexican customers. I read on here they served adobada tacos with everything on it including pina. I decided to go in and order that and she said they had NO PINA here and they I insisted twice that is why I came here then she started yelling out to the back to chop and put PINA on it. Okay lady you just told me you don’t have Pina at all. When I went to go ask for one more hot sauce given that she only gave me 1 of each color and I ordered two tacos hence I need a good amount of hot sauce on my tacos ( don’t like eating Mexican food without tons of hot sauce ) she went and acting like l was asking for 5 more. I will never be back. Thank you but no thank you.

They're menu is perfect! The food is excellent, nice ambiance, friendly service. For me the first sign that the food is going to be good is the salsa, they're salsas are delicious! I highly recommend this place. Be prepared to wait a bit.

It's hard finding great Carne Asada Fries. Fries were fantastic.

I had three adobada tacos and they were on point! Warm hand made double tortilla, meat had great flavor, and the pineapple, onions, and guac salsa were a flavor explosion!

I call ahead of time and it doesn’t matter how much time I call before hand they always start my order when I get here. I usually go during my lunch when I get the chance but honestly it isn’t worth wasting my 30 min. Last time I come to this restaurant they do this too many times.
