No one at our house felt like cooking tonight and I ran across this place in a Google search for…read moretacos. It was nearby, prices were reasonable, and it's a small local-owned business so we gave it a whirl. So, so glad we did! You've got to try this place! It's a ghost kitchen--there's no seating and they take pickup/delivery orders only. In fact, it looks like this place is someone's residence (which was a little confusing). If it weren't for the Open sign in the window, I would have been sure I was in the wrong place. But be brave and knock! You will be glad! Our food was hot and ready to go right on time. And it was soooooo good. We ordered chicken tacos with elote. The quality, textures, flavors, heat, consumé--all were spot on. This is the kind of food that's so good, you don't want to ever stop eating. I really don't think I've had birria tacos this good outside of Los Angeles. This was our first time ordering here, but we will definitely order again. They also cater, so I'll keep it in mind for our next work function, too.

Heads up everyone! Germo-phobic's please avoid this place. :)…read more I am a big fan of this place. I was craving for Mexican food & my manager had suggested this place so went there. The best tacos in town I love their chicken chimichangas. The portion are of decent size for the price you pay. I call them as hotel version of the Taco Truck(It's a Mexican food truck). It also has the grocery store to buy Mexican groceries. My fav Jaritos you get all flavors & sometimes even big bottles. I buy fresh cilantro (Please wash them). I consider them to be the authentic mexican place in Cedar rapids.

Cheese? Also yes. Portion control? Absolutely not. And honestly? Respect. The Birria Tacos (aka post-workout happiness) These tacos are CRISPY. Like audible crunch. Golden, juicy, stuffed with slow-cooked beef that tastes like it's been marinating in flavor since 1997. And the consommé??? You dip it and suddenly you understand why people fall in love too fast. Served with: Mexican rice (carb loading but make it elite) Refried beans with melted cheese (fiber... we're calling it balance) A lime wedge for aesthetic health Would I eat this after leg day? Yes. Would I eat this before leg day? Also yes. The Smothered Burrito (aka the villain arc meal) It comes out sizzling like it's announcing its presence. Completely drowned in melted cheese. Sauce everywhere. Zero shame. You cut into it and it's just layers of juicy meat, sauce, and chaos. This is not a "cute little lunch." This is a "cancel your plans and commit" situation. Foodie Influencer Notes: Portions are HUGE (shareable but do you really want to?) Flavor is bold, rich, and comforting Not watered down, not bland, not pretending to be healthy This is real, messy, satisfying food Gym Girl Verdict: Is it high protein? Yes. Is it high calorie? Also yes. Is life about balance? Absolutely. You can meal prep chicken and rice all week... but sometimes you need birria dipped in consommé while telling yourself "this is for muscle growth." Final Rating: 9/10 - would absolutely earn this on the StairMaster again.

So, if you have a group I am sure they can accommodate. The margarita tasted a little like Mt Dew, so I guess you would say on the sweeter side. The chips were good tasted home made, and the salsa was also good, I have had better for my personal taste but it was still yummy. We had a chicken con polo (sp?) and it was good, again not our favorite in the area but still delicious and a generous portion. Staff was pleasant and I believe a manager or owner stopped by to see how we were doing which I felt was a nice touch. Good place to visit but not our regular Taco Tuesday venue.

If you're craving authentic Mexican flavors at great prices, this no-frills, family-run restaurant is the place to go. The owner was very friendly and shared that she took over about six months ago but kept the same menu, staff, and cozy atmosphere. She also mentioned they recently added a breakfast burrito that's become a hit--perfect for a quick brunch while running errands. The dessert options looked amazing, though we didn't try them this time. What we ordered: * I had the caldo de res soup, served with five small tortillas, dried chilies, fresh cilantro, and onions. The broth was flavorful, and the meat was tender--such a comforting dish for a chilly day. * My husband went for the Rancheros burrito (steak and jalapeños) topped with queso sauce. It came out piping hot, and he loved it! The jalapeños had a marinated kick that added extra depth. * We also tried two jalapeño and cheese tamales. Portions were generous, and we even saved one tamale and the tortillas for another small meal at home. We noticed several other guests ordering menudo, so that's definitely on our list for next time!

The flavors were outrageous - everything tasted so fresh and delicious. Seriously, the guacamole was the freshest I've ever had - so green and perfect! And can we talk about the free chips and salsa? Such a nice touch, and they were delicious too! Seriously considering a detour next time we're in Iowa just for Moe's. Minneapolis needs a Moe's Southwest Grill in the worst way!
