Small shop on the edge of Clive/Urbandale. Fast food…read moreMexican and it was ok. Not bad but not my favorite. Visited after a friend spoke highly of it. Had the carna asada tacos with guacamole, and ordered some beef enchiladas with queso on top. Guacamole did not have any flavor. Carne asada didn't taste like carne asada I was used to. It tasted more of a roasted and chopped up birria meat flavor. Every taco shop is different and have their own flavor. This place is not my flavor. Queso on enchiladas was a little bland too. I did enjoy the guacamole salsa that is packable at their sauce counter. Total was $31.xx. Tap to pay was accepted. Quiet shop during the dinner rush. Lots of to-go orders coming into shop. Space heaters were lined up around booths. It was not cold in there not sure why there were space heaters around. Ambiance was very outdated. Booths and chairs were very worn.

Was only one other person waiting for there to go food. Chips and salsa are $2. Chips are thick/crunchy and taste homemade. Two salsas are given, verde (hot) and roja (slightly sweet with a kick of heat at the end). I ordered a Sope with carnitas. Wife ordered Gorditas. Waited for about 25 mins. A little long considering we were the only people in there at that point. But I hoped that meant it was being made from scratch. Food arrived, it looked delicious! Both of our first bites were heaven! Sope had a thick fluffy masa cake base with the most tender roasted slightly seasoned carnitas. Topped with a soft kind of white bean, a few sliced tomatoes, a few onions, shredded cabbage and salty cotija cheese. Very filling. Wife's Gorditas were three small masa cake shells stuffed with moist shredded dark meat chicken. And the same topping as mine. We both thoroughly enjoyed our food!!Would stop back again when I town.

They are a small family owned food business that puts a lot of work and hours to the food they provide. It may not be a first date kind of deal but it's a great quick foodie stop! We've been there multiple times for their tacos. I wasn't able to get a picture as quick before the husband started eating. Lol the tacos come out piping hot with nice soft corn tortillas the meat is never greasy! Even with crispy tripas it's still never crispy or gamey! The meat is always tender and spiced with authentic aromatic seasonings. It's salted just right with savory grilled notes. The tacos can come with all the fixings: onions, radish, cilantro, and grilled onions and jalapeño, with side of green and red homemade salsa. They even have menudo if you call in advance. But the pozole is always there on the weekends. But let me tell you! Go there early because their pozole runs out before 1pm! Overall will keep going there if I'm in the area of their permanent Food truck location. And highly recommend to try them out!

My friend bought a flour tortilla got the discount and I did not. I got a corn steak taco to add to my salad I brought from home and I stated I could not eat flour because I have allergy.

I didn't even get a chance to say anything about my discount because he walked away from the register as I was about to pay. I don't see myself coming back if the owners are working. Their workers are a lot friendlier and don't give us the cold shoulder for ordering sides. Just not okay because we are still paying customers at the end of the day.
