    Steak Fajitas
    Steven W.

    This is a great little Mexican Restaurant here in Shelton. It has a cozy atmosphere with a very nice ambiance. The staff are friendly, fast, and efficient. There is a great lunch menu as well with lost of affordable delicious bites. The dinner menu is more extensive but still affordable relative to other Mexican restaurants in the area. Everything is very good. The fajitas in particular were extremely flavorful and uniquely delicious. There is a full bar as well... though I've yet to try a margarita, but I'm sure I will soon. This spot has become a regular detour for quick, delicious Mexican fare. YUM!

    Super delicious food and quality non-watered down tequila drinks! Enjoyed stopping there after a round of golf at Salish Cliffs. Carne asada, chicken enchiladas, and huevos rancheros and chips and salsa with pico de gallo were all awesome. 3 amigos approved!

    Kat loving her Margarita!!

    This restaurant is incredible. Every time we go we are impressed by the food. Everything is fresh and the quality is amazing. There isn't anything bad I could say about this place.

    Carnitas Quesadilla

    Dinner was delightful! Take out was easy to order and pick up, they have a nice, private parking lot. The service was friendly on the phone and inside. The quesadilla hit the spot paired with generous sides of salsa, sour cream and fresh guacamole. The whole menu looked really yummy, I can't wait to come back and try out other dishes.

    Came here on a stormy night and got the Birria pizza, chicken tamale, and champurrado…read more YUM He gave us a little buzzer to alert us when the food was done so I could sit in my car to wait so we weren't out in the storm which was convenient. Pizza came with yummy consume. I got the read and green salsa and they were both good. The red was sooo spicy. Loved it but be weary. The drink was so yummy. Perfect.

    Overpriced. Hidden fees. Average food…read more I usually eat from taco trucks in Puyallup and near Sumner. The prices here at the taco truck by the market compared to trucks in those other two general areas are outrageous! $18 for "birratacos". $7 for sodas (like, a single standard sized orange Fanta in a glass bottle). Still, despite the sticker shock, I decided to play an order and give the place the benefit of the doubt. I paid with a debit card. There's a sign on the taco truck itself that says MasterCard/Visa/etc. cards are accepted. The cashier asked me if I had any cash. I said no. He ran my card but charged me another dollar for the card transaction, I guess. There was no sign posted on or around the front window warning potential customers about this charge. Then, of course, they had me sign a receipt with the option of providing a tip. For the record, I still tipped - not entirely sure for what other than getting nickel and dimed. When my order was ready, he asked if I wanted salsa. I asked politely for green. He gave me one small plastic container. The guest prior received at least three. The food itself was fine. Somewhat soggy and the presentation was apathetic at best, but the flavor was average. Definitely NOT worth the premium price. I can only assume the chainlink fence that surrounds the taco truck is to prevent angry and gypped previous customers from seeking retaliation after closing. I'm kidding, but barely. In review, the prices are exorbitant, the hidden fees are uncomfortable, the service is inconsistent at best, and the food itself is just average. I can confidently say: I will not be returning.
