    Birria Tacos with Beef Tongue
    Jessica J.

    I'll be completely honest: the birria was really good and I was excited to see somewhere with an option to use beef tongue as a sub for 2 dollars extra. I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't any radish or the basic sides you usually get in most authentic street taco places. The rice was also very flavorful and good as well as the beans. My biggest disappointment and let down was no free chips like pretty much any street taco place I've been to including the original El Grullo on Ft Campbell. I was also at a dismay at no queso buy option either. Overall it's really good but usually when I want Mexican I want chips and queso too. Interesting, after posting this review and seeing other reviews why did they get radishes etc and I didn't?

    Taco de Barbacoa
    Halle C.

    I passed by this place on the way to my cousins house. After seeing the line of cars wrapped around the building, I knew I had to try whatever they were serving. Since the rest of my family was coming over, we decided to go all in. We ordered tacos de barbacoa y de pastor, sopes, frijoles refritos, a burrito de chorizo, and JAMAICA. I tried almost everything except the burrito, and I'm sure I would've loved it just as much. The flavors were so fresh, the meats were seasoned to perfection, and the salsa wasn't necessary, but it added a spark to everything. My two biggest complaints were the frijoles refritos and the orientation of the to-go boxes. The frijoles just missed the mark with me and seemed to have a little aftertaste, but were much better with the salsa verde. The boxes were packed upside down. It's fine in theory, but could cause a mess for the unsuspecting. Overall, that wasn't as big a concern as the frijoles refritos. I'm so glad to go back. This'll definitely be my new spot near my cousin's house!

    Tacos Chicken
    Laura E.

    Friday, 18/March/2022 This was our first time here and I loved it! We've drove past many times and there's always a line, which I've always thought of as a good sign. Food: *I got the chicken tacos (4) and ate every bite with both sauces (pictured) *Husband got pork carnitas (4) and a chicken quesadilla, he ate all the carnitas and half of the quesadilla (I ate the rest lol) Space/Service: It's a small building and is a drive-thru. The menu is on the side of the building with pictures, which for me was super helpful! There is some parking and picnic tables on the side with the exit sign. The service was lovely, both the person taking our order and the person giving us our order. Overall: Loved and I'm so glad we tried it! Definitely going to go back and try something different.

    We were passing thru this area on a road trip and stopped here due to good Yelp! reviews and my…read morelove for Mexican restaurants. We were seated immediately and the food came out pretty fast. Hubby enjoyed his fajitas and loved the chips and salsa. He actually finished two little salsa bowls while we were there. I have an affinity for birria so was excited to see the birria burrito on the menu. However, I really didn't want all of the burrito fillings so was excited when hubby pointed out the "quesabirria" (yep, birria in a quesadilla). The excitement was lessened once I got my food. It was way too cheesy for my tastes. The cheese overpowered the birria. I ended up opening them to just eat the meat and then eating some of the remaining tortilla as if I'd just ordered a cheese quesadilla on the side. I wish I'd looked thru the taco portion of the menu to see if birria was an option. That probably would've suited me better. Since we were child free and the drink menu prices were beyond reasonable, I ordered a skinny coconut margarita. It was tasty and yet there was a bit too much ice. Hubby tried to get a virgin drink but the only option for virgin was daiquiri. Would I stop in here again? Yes!
