Hands down the best tacos I’ve ever had. The green salsa is amazing and the guacamole is so fresh. I love that the tacos come with fresh cut cucumbers, lime, and seasoned potatoes. Will definitely be returning, frequently!

The food is amazing! Service and atmosphere is great. Try it out as you won't be disappointed!!

We tried the queso birria tacos and the al pastor mulita. Amazing food and people..And the horchata was delicious. I even got to taste the cucumber lime and that was good too a little too sweet for me.

Honestly pretty disappointed. Had heard great things about this place but didn't have a great experience.Walked in to an empty store, great! No line!3 college students working front counter, and they literally don't care to be there. Order is taken, 6 tacos.3 customers that came in after us received theirs orders ahead of ours. After 15 minutes, our order is finally called. Turns out the order taken didn't include 2 of our 6 tacos. No apologies for the wait or the error. Haven't been to a store where at least one employee pretends to care before.Food was decent, but not good enough to compensate for the severe lack of good customer service.

The 2 cashiers at the front were very knowledgeable about the menu and really did an amazing job upselling and giving recommendations. However, the kitchen disappointed me terribly as everything was bland and very one demensional. I had the birria ramen & a veggie taco, both of which were very unseasoned! My partner had the birria tacos which were bland as well ! Food catfished at its finest ! Abosolute waste of $32 !!

the employees were very friendly, but compared to the other location the prices were hiked up a lot. refills are 50¢ extra, and many of the entrees are more expensive in general. it was odd to see grapes and fried potatoes instead of limes and cilantro w/ the radishes and cucumbers too. the best deal are the three tacos with consome and try the cucumber lime drink, but other than that order w/ a grain of salt.

Absolutely love this place! My fiance and I always went to their mother store in Cary so we are excited there is a closer one now! All of it is amazing! Definitely recommend the birria pizza!

Delicious food! I would definitely come back for their tacos. The asada was so soft and cooked to perfection, the pastor was so tasty, and the chorizo was seasoned very well. The guac def adds to the deliciousness. The staff was so friendly, welcoming, and willing to answer any questions we had. Vale la pena probar estos tacos!!

Definitely coming back! The tacos al pastor were absolutely delicious. They don’t skimp out on any ingredients and my order was ready within 5-10 minutes. Employees were also incredibly kind!

I was not gonna write a post as I was part of an event that went downhill REAL QUICK and I know it was not the workers fault. Mainly I would blame the owners/managers for not being properly prepared. Yes. I got a free $3 drink out of it. I would have paid full price for all that food just to get my time back. When I originally got there they told me it was a 15 min wait for food. I was super excited and didn’t eat much for lunch in anticipation for this even so I was like okay, 15 min isn’t bad so we stayed. 15 min later and we were still waiting to even order. The cashiers were extremely nice and very helpful to answer out questions. They were so nice in fact that they made everything sound good so my husband and I got nearly one of each different dish. The lemonade and horchata were good. After waiting for about 30 min (total time 45min) we were getting kind of irritated since like I mention we had not ate much. We agreed that they were just busy and we should be getting our food soon. We waited another 30 min (1 hour 15 min total) and still nothing. At this point it was past 9pm. My husband went in to ask how much longer and they said they had not even started cooking our food yet and that it would not be out for at least 30 min. We asked for a refund and they were kind enough to give it to us. They asked for my information. It was provided. Never heard anything back. I submitted my review with offline who APOLOGIZED and told me the owner wanted my email to reach out. I provided that to them as well and still never even heard back with an apology which is why I came to the reviews to see if anyone else experienced this. Reading the reviews I see the owner really doesn’t care and wants you to feel grateful for the free drink and 20% off the food that was offered that day. They do not need to be rude. A simple acknowledgment of fault would have been enough. I was going to go back but after reading the reviews I don’t think I will.
