    Asada tacos, cochinita Phil
    Dawn D.

    I have to say I was very happy with this order! I ordered my lunch via DoorDash and spent $18 including tip for three tacos. I have never tried cochinita pibil so I decided to try and was pleasantly surprised! It's citrusy marinaded pork, pickled onions and refried beans. Not spicy at all, but a flavorful melt in your mouth taco that was very good. I liked that the asada tacos were very fresh, I could tell because the meat was very crispy. No huge fat chunks like other tacos in the area, and I love that I was given the option for mild or hot salsa. I love tacos but extra spicy salsa is something my tummy doesn't agree with. Delicious food! I'll be back again soon and I'll try out the location. It's always cute and inviting looking when I pass by, so I'm down to check it out!! Try these tacos! You won't be disappointed!!

    Chips & Salsa--ate some salsa already

    We were sat right next to the door on a cold day, it was also pretty empty in there. I would've asked for a new table, but they are really fast to bring out chips and salsa! Our waistress was super nice. Another worker kept checking on us as well. Great customer service! We got Steak Fajitas-Not a lot of meat, mostly onions Good flavor! Enchiladas A La Crema-Very Good! Piña Coladas-Not creamy, more of a slushy $5 during Happy Hour! Beans were pretty salty. Lots of lime in the guacamole & salsa. They also charge a $1 for a to-go box. They don't verbally tell you that though. I'm not sure if it was hidden somewhere on the menu?

    I still think the food is delicious here, whether you want breakfast burritos or a great variety of menu items for lunch or dinner. But... price increases make me pause, especially when I can pay the same price for a sit-down meal in a restaurant, as opposed to sitting at an outdoor table or taking my food home. Service is always friendly and efficient. Both English and Spanish speaking employees. Ambience? It's a food truck. The truck is colorful and they have two outside tables but you're right next to Marvin Rd with all the traffic noise. Please guys, reconsider your pricing - a food truck is great when prices are a bargain, but not when I'm paying full service restaurant prices.

    Pozole Toppings
    Sonia S.

    We've driven past this place for a while and decided to check it out. They do serve alcohol and don't charge for Chips and Salsa. We opted for Pozole, Birria Burrito, and a Birria Quesadilla. The pozole was served with my desired toppings. Some places serve it with lettuce, I prefer cabbage. Some also serve it with Oregano, I prefer Cilantro. The others enjoyed the Birria Burrito and Quesadilla, but did say they like the Birria at another spot we frequent. The waiter was attentive and eager to provide good service. They have a nice mural on the wall. They do have an extra charge if you pay with card. We will return.

    Went here today , since i kept seeing it . So here we go. I am a sucker for Birria Tacos okay! But i was slightly disappointed. I order the birria plate , you have to order the consumé by itself it doesn't come with it , but it wasn't that expensive. Too me the picture didn't match the food so that was a little uh.. yeah but it's okay. The rice was decent , and beans was okay. Consumé 6/10 Birria 6/10 Rice & beans 6/10 The set up was really nice and vibrant, but too close to the road for me . My service was nice but, his voice was just a little low so it was hard to hear somethings he was saying. Id say go there for a quick snack.

    Amazing birria burritos. Every ingredient in the burrito is delicious. It's a must to order it with cheese. I think about them often and go at least once a month. I get it to go, so don't care about the ambiance. They also have a tasty hibiscus drink they recently added. Prices are reasonable for the taste and serving size.

    Go here! You won't be disappointed. Food is delicious and freshly made. I can't believe there aren't more rave reviews for this place.
