They were busy and I still got my food within just a couple minutes. The Tacos al Pastor are top notch. Al Pastor is one of my favorites and this one is great....tender, juicy and super full of flavor. The Salsa Roja is nice and spicy but also very flavorful. I'll definitely be stopping by again for some truly authentic and amazing street food.

I've seen this place almost every night since it's around the corner, so we decided to stop. We had asada tacos and pastor tacos and washed them down with Mexican Coke. The tortilla was delicious and the meat was perfect. There are a few stools to sit on if one wants (we did) but this is mostly a to-go place. The food came quickly and we were home and in bed, full and happy, in no time. I recommend this place for delicious food with no hipster vibes. Sorry I didn't take a picture. I was too busy eating.

Worst tacos, horchata and asada fries I ever had in socal…read more I ordered asada fries without beans, I got beans. Also can we make it a mission to label pico de gallo as pico de gallo? If I see "salsa" I'm thinking house salsa. Let's be specific~ Speaking of salsa, I ordered salsa verde and got something more like salsa amarillo? It's the blandest salsa ever. I could get more out of a sauce packet tbh. I don't know if the water down their salsas maybe? Of the (probably) many watered down items served here, this horchata has at least 3x more water than flavor. Also don't know how you can water down the flavor of meat but add that to the list too. I will say texture on the meat is good like I know it's not over or undercooked, but I taste next to nothing. Also received the most solid as a rock limes ever. Confused how that even came to be. This place is full of shiny gimmicks with no substance. If you're looking for good mexican food look elsewhere. It's southern california, you've got options.

The food was delicious and the prices can't be beat. My personal favorite were the aguachiles, they were perfection! We also ordered two shrimp tacos and surf and turf burritos and neither disappointed. There seemed to be only one person working so kudos to the chef as the food came out fairly quick but you could taste the freshness. When we went it was empty but a few people had pick up orders. The restaurant looked clean and well maintained. I can't wait to come back as those aguachiles are still on my mind.

When I came in it was near closing time and there was no one sitting inside. I think they were closing up, but I had enough time to order something to go. I ended up ordering two fish tacos. It was neatly packaged and plenty of toppings, along with some salsa on the side. When I finally got around to eating the tacos, it was very tasty and there was a nice crisp to the Ensenada style tacos. I definitely cheer for places like this, and I tend to score a little higher only because I feel like there needs to be more places like this around. Not only that, but they have a pretty extensive menu, but I really just came here specifically for the fish tacos on this visit.

This time I got their mango aguafresca, flan, esquite, and chicken torta to try. The mango agua Fresca was sweet mangoy and refershing. The flan was firmer than what I'm used to but was still super creamy, not too sweet and had plenty of this caramely toasty flaves. It's corn season and the corn in the esquite MNM. Amazingly buttery juicy sweet and generously topped with rich mayo, Cotija cheese and tajin. The torta was also REALLY YUMMY and was filled with crunchy fresh onions, lettuce, tomato, and radish, soft beans, savory cheese, and tender limey flavorful perfectly grilled chicken. I even added some of their super fresh yummy guac and omg pure deliciousity right there. Overall this place is still pretty good. Mango agua Fresca $5 Flan $5 Esquite $7 Chicken torta $12 +$4 guac

Gave me a few samples of their water and all were good. Food wasn't bad at all. Got a taco of Asada, solid but nothing crazy. ($3 eh...) Horchata was really good. $6 for a large (average price) Esquite was good, but nothing crazy. Portion was small, but not terrible. $7 averageish price. Buñuelo was very good. Expensive at $1.25 for the side. This is where the 1 star comes. I got an all meat burrito of arrachera. It was a bit salty. Meat was good. Salsa is spicy. BUT THE PORTION. The portion was ridiculous. Smallest burrito I've ever had. Half the burrito was taken up by a roasted onion, which I asked for no onions. $18 is insane. Especially for the portion. $40 spent in total and I'm still hungry. If I ever come back to this place. I wouldn't get any food (maybe a buñelo). Lady cook wasn't the nicest. She probably knew I'd be upset at the portion they gave me. This place is clearly catered to gringos as an "authentic" Mexican restaurant. I hate leaving 1 star, but $18 for a mini burrito is just insane.

She really loved the guacamole, the pork tacos, and the fish tacos. We also ordered the ceviche, but the standouts were definitely the tacos and the guacamole. Highly recommend the happy hour and grabbing a seat outdoors or inside to watch any games going on! The service was fantastic - they took our order and almost immediately delivered the food after. They also checked in multiple times with us - if the food didn't come out right after, they went to go check on it for us. Great place - we'll be back!

We were eating there when another customer came in and was waiting for over 7 minutes with the employee not acknowledging her at all. She eventually just left. Another couple walked in, also waited 5 minutes until she came to assist from the back. While the customer was saying her order, the employee got a personal call while dealing with the food, answered and was preparing the food while on her phone call. I have a video snipped of this interaction. As we were finishing about to leave, another customer came in and was waiting for over 5 min. The entire restaurant can see and hear her on the phone. Something about another employee not coming in and it was just her and that she had done everything. When the customer tried to get her attention she motioned hold on with her hand. I completely understand it sucks when a co worker calls out. But that was a bit much. No wonder this place is always dead. No one would want to come back after this experience.

The homemade blue corn tortilla was soft but held everything together, the queso taco is worth, guac is included, and promise me to try the pickled jamaica onions with ur taco! Average taco is about $4-6 after fees, but worth imo. I would recommend trying their trio taco ($18) the first time as it provides a variety. I personally enjoyed asada and chorizo more. The chicken here is the stewed kind instead of grilled. Bc of how good everything was... low-key considering the vegan ones next visit Plus, good vibes all around as the staff is dancing while making ur food. (They actually stream it on the TV behind the register!) The location has plenty of parking but limited seating.
