Wow. I can’t believe it only has 4 stars at the time of this review. This is the best Mexican, true Mexican, not Tex-mex, I’ve ever had. Tastes just like it’s from Mexico. Excellent food, friendly staff, and super quick. The flavor is so good too, you just have to try it.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great fresh food, relatively high prices for a taqueria but worth it!

I ordered two tacos a-la cart, chicken and chorizo. Both were pretty good, nothing earth shattering, but good enough where I would come back. Had the Cadillac margarita - was also okay, but tasted like Jose Cuervo mix with an extra shot of Jose. Again, not a sin. I ordered some Pacifico and chips and salsa - the chips were not freshly baked, but out of a bag, and the salsa was clearly out of a can. $7.99. Okay, whatever, I’m hungry. When I quickly ran out of salsa with my giant basket of BAF chips, I asked if I could get some more salsa. That’ll be $3.95 they told me. I’m sorry, WHAT!? 3.95 for an ounce of store-bought salsa? That’s the final straw. Not coming back.

This was the perfect no-frill taco bar. We had a bunch tacos and our favorites were the pork, barbacoa, and Al Pastor. All of them were fairly good though. Proper spicy margarita here according to my husband as well. The agua fresca was a bit too sweet for me, but perfect when I watered it down. I’d recommend giving them a try.

I ordered chicken enchiladas the chicken didn’t taste too hot like it was spoiled. The rice and beans were good. I also ordered 3 steak tacos. There was so much fat on the meat. One of the tacos wasn’t edible due to so much fat on the meat. So ultimately I only had 2 tacos. I use to love this place now not so much. Prices aren’t worth the food anymore. ?

I have been very twice now and have got to say I love the place. During the warmer days they have outdoor seating where you feel like you are in a jungle. As well as a limited amount of indoor seating. I would definitely recommend most things on there menue. The only small issue I would say I would have is the price of the alcoholic drinks compared to the size they give you. The staff are friendly and then place is clean.

The tacos are delicious. The parking can be challenging, but don't let it stop you from dining at this restaurant. You'll enjoy the food.

num num my bff Emily took me here. I had a quesadilla. Would go back with minimal arm twisting.

Best chicken tacos I’ve ever had! I don’t eat steak but I enjoyed their steak taco. Great customer service. I go here almost twice a week

We try the empanadas, was so amazing tasty, flavoring. So delicious, if you want something more dinner type ask for the enchiladas, every single Penny it's worth it.
