    Chips y Salsa
    Stephanie W.

    Was introduced to this spot by a friend. He loves coming here for tacos. This is a cute family spot and great for groups. Service is quick and the food is flavorful. I was able to try a new dish with a side of old familiar items. The Pupusa y queso was delicious. You have to eat it quick because once the cheese gets cold it looses all pizzazz. But luckily I had some pillowy soft rice and sweet plantains to add to the mix. Portions were perfect. Would definitely return but I do need a vegan option on the tacos.

    Dry minced supposed to be Birria.

    This was my first time trying this place at the recommendation of a friend. I ordered 2 Birria Tacos 1 Chicken. I ordered online and paid extra for cheese & sour cream on the side. My order was wrong. The guy tried to charge me extra for cheese & sour cream that I already paid for. Had to show him in the app. The Birria was a dried mince meat. I've never had dry Birria mush from a restaurant that claims to be "authentic". When he realized my order was wrong he just stood there like a dear in headlights not offering to accommodate or fix it. I had an appointment to get to so I just took the order & left. Definitely a NO for this place! Very disappointed!

    I came across this place while studying at cross street market right across the street, and I am SO glad I did! The restaurant itself is small but nicely decorated. They have a wide selection of traditional Mexican dishes. We ordered the tacos-- Al pastor, carnitas, and birria. They are a bit pricey at $4.25-5 per taco, but SO worth it! The Al pastor was my favorite, it was incredibly juicy and flavorful, and the pineapple really rounded it out perfectly. The carnitas was also so tender and delicious, and so was the birria, which was paired with a flavor-filled consomé. The workers were also friendly and attentive. I will definitely be back here to try out some of the other dishes on their menu!!!

    Steak tacos w/chips and guacamole
    Kim B.

    Fresh and delicious. Yes, if you walk in and order it will take a few minutes to get your food, not because it's slow, but because they literally cook it fresh. I had the steak tacos and it's so full of meaty goodness i got so full, but I had to eat my warm tortilla chips and guacamole! Some good food if I do say so myself

    Love

    Delicious food, generous proportions and, most importantly, followed special instructions ("please put toppings on side") and delivery instructions ("please call xxx-xxx-xxxx when downstairs"). Will be my go to as I'm ordering from DC for cousins at John Hopkins in Baltimore.

    Chicken Burrito
    Bill M.

    Excellent Mexican Food. Clean restaurant, friendly service and food cooked to order in a scratch kitchen. Dining room is sunny and bright with large windows. We had the chicken burrito and it was perfect. Hot and fresh with quality ingredients. AAA+

The interior is very spacious and can host both large family/parties and smaller intimate diners. We shared a ceviche for an appetizer and it was fresh and the right amount of spicy.

Sterling our server was very sweet and attentive. They were so nice and brought out birthday dessert flan for me, candle and all.

I truly…read moreenjoyed how vibrant the ambiance is, as it is decorated with live plants, bamboo finishes, and bright colors. The tacos are clearly made with love! Each taco is extremely fresh and I can tell that it was crafted meticulously in the kitchen. Be mindful that each taco is priced separately and you get a single taco ranging from $10.00 - 15.00. The guacamole is fresh and garnished with strawberries. Personally, I typically go for a spicier and more flavorful guac, but if you opt for a fresh and simple dish, then it certainly checks the box. The queso is thick, cheesy, and topped with peppers. I personally could appreciate a creamier queso, but I will say the dish looks and smells amazing. The oysters are rather small in size but they're extremely fresh and come topped with a jalapeño. My expectations for the drinks were a bit higher than what they delivered. Drinks tasted a bit watery and the flavor wasn't as potent (this says a lot for someone like myself who is pretty light weight). Service was fairly accommodating, however, keep in mind that they enforce a rule of having half of your party there prior to seating you. Also be mindful that their menu changes to dinner at 5:00PM, and seating at the outside bar may be closed depending on when you arrive. My favorite of all the dishes was the was the Al Pastor taco! I'd like to give this place another try because just based off of the aesthetic alone it has sooo much potential to be absolutely amazing!

Don't let the outside deceive you. Once you walk in you'll smell the fresh cilantro and chile. It took a bit to translate the menu, but you'll figure it out. There are plenty of options. The server helped us figure it out and we were set. I ordered the El pastor tacos, beans & rice, and tortilla chips. The tacos were theeee best! What I loved the most is that the corn tortillas didn't fall apart!!! I hate it when I go to eat a taco and it falls apart. They cooked the tortillas enough so they held up, but were still soft. Did I already say how good the tacos were?! Along with the meat is cilantro, some onions, and you can top it with some green chili sauce. Sooooo good! The pico de Gallo was some of the best I've ever had. I know what you're thinking. How could you go wrong with pico de Gallo? Yeah, I wonder the same thing, but this pico was FRESH with just the right ratio of tomato, onion, cilantro, etc. Next time I'll order two of them. The chips are restaurant-made. That was our first indicator that the food was going to be ALL that we hoped it would be. AND it was. The beans were pinto beans. Memories from home and the ultimate comfort food. The were cooked perfectly with just enough seasoning. The rice was perfectly cooked too. This is the taco spot you need to try.

    Health: A menu with wide variety and genuine Hispanic cuisine is more than appreciated. Rice,…read moresalad, meat, soups. It's there and cooked without oil immersion or the awful trap of terrible portioning. Here, the nutrients shine. And that is healthy. Price: Decent. Very Decent. Everything I bought there was roughly over 45 dollars (before the tipping) and keep in mind, the condiments and sauces were complimentary. For this quality and quantity? I definitely got my money's worth. Experience: Wonderful server. Even in a busy dinner cycle, she came over and literally started to hand me a menu almost right as I sat down. Even gave me a great recommendation for the Enchilada platter and brought the holster of extras over to the table as well. The food was delivered quickly, and the small details (utensils, cleanliness, chair organization etc.) were great. Taste: Honestly this place is a standout for seasoning. It's flavorful, unique, and skewed towards spices over oil. Tasteful impact, without the baggage. A gem. Even among so many other restaurants serving this cuisine in the area I've tried, this is a standout. I'll come eat here again. You should too. It's right next to Patterson park with so many parking spaces nearby. I'm gonna run here. Soon.

The exterior looks worn down and unassuming. The interior is small but was able to accommodate our party. The service was good, with both bartenders taking turns serving our table. I ordered happy hour chips and queso, and the queso felt very unfresh and can-like. They only offer one basket of chips & salsa complimentary per the menu but we were a party of 5 and received two. My happy hour app was rung up as regular price. The hard shell bean tacos I ordered had very little beans in them and only beans, no other toppings. There was lettuce, tomato, and cheese on the plate on the side, so I had to dress my own tacos. They tasted okay, not great, not bad. The $6 Monday margaritas are for the 12 oz and are made strong. It's a $1 more for a flavor and $1 more for a larger size (16 oz). The men's bathroom is small and had two urinals that are right next to the bathroom door.
