    This place is so delicious! The meat is seasoned perfectly. I typically get the steak tacos, however I got the fajitas years ago and think about them all the time they were delicious. The staff is very nice and warm.

    Al pastor and steak tacos!

    Delicious food! We started going there during Covid and been there ever since. Small business and tacos are great!

    Steak Taco

    A last minute pick up for dinner turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Family owned atmosphere without much of a line. Friendly customer service and very quick food service. Good quantity of food for the price of steak tacos now-a-days. Would revisit and try other menu items.

    I went here for lunch. I wanted to check it out since I hadn't been here before. When I got there, the restaurant wasn't busy at all. There were two people seated at one of the tables and the manager/ owner person was hanging out with them. As I entered, I was greeted and asked how I could be helped. I told him, I was there to pick up tacos to go and I just needed a minute or two to check out their menu. Then manager proceeded to tell me what kind of tacos they offered and what specials they had. I chose to get three tacos on corn tortillas (al pastor, carne asada and pollo) with everything on them. I was told to wait a few minutes while the food is being prepared. The restaurant was clean, the menu had a good variety on it and the prices were reasonable. Most tacos were $2 each. There was one that was $2.55. The service was good. After having the tacos, my reaction was I could've had way better. Neither of the three tacos were any good in taste. Average taste would be the best level for them if that. The pollo one was the worst. No flavor or good taste. Even the green and red sauces were crappy. Their hot (red) sauce wasn't even spicy at all. It was salty and sour. I was pretty disappointed. The food wasn't good at all. Well, at least I experienced it to know not to go back here. There are other, much better taco restaurants nearby.

    Everyone was so nice and the food is spectacular! I got the breakfast omelet and it was delicious- you have to try the green sauce on it!

    Great food, quick service, and authentic! And Delicious!! I recommend the chilaquiles con carne and the tamales are the best in the area!

    Red Posole
    Angela C.

    The green chicken tamales were decent. A little dry though. The red posole was pretty good. But I had to ask for cabbage and cilantro. I feel that should just be standard when ordering posole. The salsa that came with the chips, seemed like it was just tomato sauce with some cilantro thrown in it and jalapeño seeds to give it a little spicy effect. *side note* -When I used the restroom, the toilet would not flush. I peeked into the tank and there was no water in it. **As soon as I stood up to leave the restaurant, my head felt really strange and I felt dizzy and I was extremely shaky. I had my husband drive and then I ended up puking 6x's in 30 mins. My husband didn't get sick. He DID NOT eat the cabbage. Only I did. So I feel as if something was wrong with the cabbage or I was "poisoned". Because I was completely fine all morning. Then 15 mins after eating my posole, I got sick. My stomach didn't hurt. It wasn't cramping. My head just felt very tingly and weird. Then I was dizzy and almost seeing double. After puking 6x's, I finally got home and everything was fine. I didn't eat anything else that day.

    Michelada

    Came in on a hot day just for a drink end up getting tacos and a Michelada and I was not mad about it. They did the lengua tacos very well. They weren't rubbery like how most places have them. Michelada were the best. It was sweet and spicy which made them perfect. I would come back just for the Michelada.

    Taco Special- Delish!!
    Lainie L.

    Authentic, made to order fresh and delish! The steak tacos are my fave . They are very friendly, don't mind special orders and have excellent service. Always very clean and way reasonable price for the amount of ingredients they put on everything. Bonuses include 9 am opening on weekdays and 8 am on weekends & Dollar Tacos on Wednesdays. Highly recommended!!

    It's been a little bit since we've been back. This review is specifically for their to go, as last…read moretime we dined in it took 40 minutes for us to get our food. We ordered a side of guac, 3 beer batter fried fish tacos, and birria tacos. I also ordered a drink. We opened the bag and I got a flattop grilled fish as opposed to the beer batter fried fish tacos like I ordered. I didn't want to wait for my food again but it was rather disappointing that we went through the effort of going through the ordering options for it to still not come out right. My husband had the birria tacos and mentioned that that weren't bad, just not one go out of his way for again. I went to try it and it was super dried out even after dipping into the consume which was lacking a bit in flavor. Then for the drink, they forgot to give it to us, and when we came in they gave us a 4 ounce cup for our 3.50 Jamaica aqua Fresca. When we asked the hostess she looked at us like we were speaking a foreign language and offered us an orange jarrito. All in all, we were rather disappointed with this experience but hope that another try down the line will be better.
