It's felt to me that the taco business in Troy and the surrounding areas is pretty competitive lately. So when I saw great reviews for this new taco shop, I decided I needed to visit sooner than later. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, but they're big on friendliness, service, food portions, and flavor.
I was originally just going to order tacos, but when I decided on beans and rice, the woman at the counter suggested I should order the taco special instead, which would be cheaper. With this, the tacos come with chips, salsa, beans, and rice. I'm in love with the salsa. It has a deep flavor with just the right amount of onion and garlic to make it addicting. I saw customers at other tables requesting additional salsa. The rice was a very generous portion, and the beans were full of flavor.
One thing I did not expect was that my chicken tacos were fried, with chicken and cheese inside, garnished with lettuce and sauce. These were FILLING. These are not the type of tacos I prefer, though I have to admit they were good. But on future visits, I'll get tacos in the more conventional style.
Parking can be challenging, especially as their customer base grows. Street parking is limited, and the roads are hilly. Be prepared to walk a little bit to get inside during busier times. read more
