    Tacos
    Anna L.

    3.5 but rounding up Decent tacos with a lot of different options that are not usually found in a typical taco place. I had the al pastor, lengua, chicken tinga, and surtido. Three tacos are plenty filling. The tacos comes with the basic topping, cilantro and onions, along with limes and some hot sauces. The limes were dry and the hot sauces weren't to my taste though. The al pastor taco was the best, you can never go wrong with that choice. The lengua was ok, chewy and soft but I prefer it more firm. The chicken tinga taco is topped with iceberg lettuce. The chicken was good but the taco on a whole was a bit dry and felt like it needed something more. The surtido taco was new to me, which consists of pork and pork skin. It has an interesting texture, nice and chewy but has more skin that meat. I thought the skin would be roasted or fried like chicharron, but it wasn't. Not bad but I would get something else next time.

    We were driving through to Maine and needed gas. Saw their reviews and we hopped in. Nice small and local spot for pickup. We ordered the torts azteca (steak), azteca soup, spicy pork tacos, chips (homemade) with pico and guac. Everything is delicious!

    This place is great! The location is a bit odd but the food is awesome. It's not really a sit down place but there are a few chairs and a bench. Just be aware that generally get a lot of orders so best to call ahead. I've been here many times and have ordered most of the things in the menu. There's some interesting taco choices I'd suggest you try them. Fair warning, the spicy sauce is really spicy.

    Beef nachos -- I cut up the avocado, it looked even prettier before I cut them lol

    Great service, amazing nachos! I'm from Arizona, so I'm a little picky with Connecticut Mexican food restaurants, and this here, made me feel like home.

    Fried pork skin and pork & pineapple tacos. Fantastic! Highly recommend both.

    See all

    Great steak burrito, missing that from Colorado while traveling on the east coast. The woman behind the counter was incredibly friendly too!

    Tasty authentic Mexican food with friendly service. It's a pick-up/takeout joint doing brisk business, so call ahead. Loved the guacamole :)

    Delicious food overall, filling and reasonably priced. Tamales were just OK but probably the best choice of Mexican food in the area.
