    Heard this place was good. I get there and I am seated immediately. The waiter brought drinks quickly and took my order. The breaded steak sounded good. I ordered the Milanesa with a side of rice. The serving was large. Everything looked fresh. I was so full. Everything on that plate was excellent. Good flavor. The place was clean and the people were nice. I only had one day but if I was in town future, I would eat here again. I recommend.

    Yummy food at a great price. Easy parking, got sat right away. I got the regular flauta plate with rice & beans. Everything was so delicious. Service was fast & friendly. Would recommend to anyone. Ambiance is cute inside

    Taco platter.

    Great, friendly and quick service. The meat in the Barbacoa tacos was mushy. Still edible but would not order again. The Santa Fe chicken tacos were a lot better. Rice, beans and salsa were all tasty.

    Day Special, Part 2, Soup of the day (Beef soup) and small drink or soda, $12

    We landed in El Paso came here for lunch. It's in a strip mall with plenty of parking. We were greeted quickly and told to pick our table. Our server was very pleasant, took our order, and our food came pretty quickly. The 2 whom order flautas were happy with their orders. I ordered the fajitas, but the meat was too salty, so I ended up eating more carbs than I wanted to so that I could eat the meat. The day special seems to be a good deal. I thought 1/2 an order wouldn't be enough, but that's still 3 flautas. My friend was very impressed w/the soup which hit the spot. The regular flautas were pretty plain but in a good way. When you're ready to pay, go to the cashier and tell them what your table number is,. In the end, excellent service, good food, and we'd return.

    Totally surprise myself by picking this for the team! We wanted breakfast but not my team's choice so I'm happy this one turned out great! This is a great find and I would definitely recommend going here! First time I've had a Torta and I liked it alot! That will be my option to try at future restaurants. The Guacamole was by one of the best I tasted! Chips were freshly made and were delivered to the table hot! The server and staff were amazing and always asking if we needed anything. Lots of memorabilia on the walls and worth checking out.

    Loved this place. Old school Mexican food. Best guacamole. Homemade. Our entrees were very good. Rice was fluffy. Salsa spot on.

    Good food, came in during lunch but my order was taken quickly. The posted 3 Flatuas deal for check-in is not valid here, dissapointing. The waitress said it had been 3 years since they honored that deal.

    Came here for lunch and it was pretty busy. I got the steak tacos and they were pretty good. Could use a little more flavor but other than that, the texture was great. Rice, cabbage, and beans were pretty typical.

    Food was fresh, chips were still hot with how fresh they were. Salsa was good. Tacos were also super yummy. Service was super nice and friendly. Place is very authentic feeling

    Flautas mixed
    Joe B.

    Service was great! It was freezing cold in there so I had a bowl of soup with my meal to warm me up. It was a really light broth. Not too much flavor but it was good. I couldn't decide on what Flautas I wanted so I got a combo of the two popular versions. The one that isn't white was delicious. The white one is straight sour cream. It was good. The beans were delicious. I would return but the flautas weren't special but it was good food.

    Picadillo as a plate. Also some of those fresh made chips and Salsa.

    I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

    Okay, I do not say this lightly. But I may just have had the best tacos I've ever had in my life! I…read morewas looking around for a taco place in El Paso and this one popped up. Had multiple thousand Google reviews and they were all close to five stars. So I knew I had to check it out. It was super close to my hotel, so I popped in the car and found it without trouble. Trouble. Again, there is pretty limited parking so it's kind of hit and miss whether you'll find a spot or not. Fortunately, I did. When you walk up to the place, the building itself is pretty nondescript. They have a nice selection of outside seating, and your window to order is outside. Very nice lady at the counter gave me helpful suggestions and so I ordered three tacos and an amazing lime and cucumber fresca. Went in and sat down inside and was pleasantly surprised by the interior. It definitely had more of an upscale bar vibe to it than a Taco shop. The waiter that brought out my tacos told me that it turns into more of a nightclub after hours. I may have to go check that out. The tacos themselves were absolutely off the chain! The tortillas were blue corn and everything on it tasted so fresh and so wonderful. The carnitas was fantastic, the brisket Taco was to die for and the blackened shrimp Taco was one of the best I've ever had. Had. The flavors were so balanced and on point, it was one of the most satisfying taco experiences I have had!! I will probably hit this place up a couple more times before I leave El Paso. If you are in El Paso, you probably already know about this place. But I'm telling you what you cannot go wrong for tacos and that lime/ cucumber fresca! Bottom line? It's about 10 hours drive from Las Vegas to El Paso. And this Taco shop will give me a great reason to do a road trip anytime. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out!

Every visit has been a great experience with flavorful food, refreshing drinks, and a vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The tacos are simply AMAZING and you can truly taste the quality in every bite. Definitely one of El Paso's must-visit taco spots!
