    $1 Al Pastor and Chorizo tacos. Not bad.
    Betty R.

    Average. $1 tacos are small, but they are not stingy with the meat. Also got an order of taquitos. They were Chicken, perfectly crispy and really good amount of chicken. The service was quick and the restaurant was clean. I will come back and try other dishes and let you know how it goes. Can't really taste the sazón on some dollar tacos.

    delicious.

    delicious and cheap! The service was quick only about 10 miniutes we got the asada fries and gringa the gringa had a lot of meat for only 6:50$.

    This place is a joke these are not tacos they are so small for a large price ridiculous never coming back

    Not a good place to eat they are overpriced for small portions the tacos should be 50 cents at this point for the size of them the meat is low quality and not flavorful

    a chef preparing food

    I don't like the men that's cooking can't cook what so ever the carne Assad meat is horrible , bad attitudes makes bad food I work across the street and I'm never spending money in there I'm telling all my coworkers !

    Tacos were good. Meat soft and well cooked. Parking is limited on site but there is plenty of street parking.

Entered the restaurant which we were greeted and seated. The host gave us some waters and stated that our server will be here in a few minutes. A few minutes passed, our server handed us some tortilla chips and salsa. I ordered a Campechana cocktail which had a mixture of shrimp and octopus. Ordered a Lengua taco and chicken Mole. Ordered some alcoholic drinks as well. Received our food within 15 minutes. All was very good! No complaints on the taste of food. All was delicious. Pros: -Happy Hour drinks were decent -Plenty of parking -Clean Restaurant which felt old fashion -Live music is available Cons: -Had to keep calling our waitress over to assist us. -Seafood Cocktail was very expensive! Other Restaurants that tasted as good or better would average up to $16-$19. This place charges you $27 which I believe is too overpriced for some seafood cocktail. Dishes were above average pricing. Overall: Wouldn't me my first Mexican go to place due the expensive price for dishes and Seafood and it would not be the last to visit. This place had a good vibe. Ambiance was straight old fashion to the punch. A real Mexican joint without old school vibes.

I waited about 20 min for the order. Then when I got the order. The fries were cold and not even warm. Maybe a day old not fresh at all. The wet burritos were cold too! When you opened them there was not steam like they had when I first had them. The first time I went and I opened the wet burrito box it had steam coming out and was super hot with the sauce and the inside of the burrito. For $60 this was not worth it. I would recommend going somewhere else. I was so disappointed and had traveled an hour for this food

Place was nearly empty, we still went completely unattended for long stretches of time, orders were all wrong, and the waitress instead of fixing it was argumentative & completely wrong. For example, when I noticed my order was wrong, I told her and she immediately contradicted me to the point that I had to move the meat aside to prove to her that there were no beans on my order when there should've been. Instead of then fixing and apologizing she blamed the chef. When my spouse pointed out what was wrong about her order, she asked us what she wanted her to do with it? Maybe take it back and fix it? It was almost like she was blaming us and expecting us to just take what they brought us even if it was wrong. NOBODY IS TRYING TO PAY FOR THE PLEASURE TO FIGHT WITH THEIR INCORRECT WAITRESS. If you are going to be arguing with your paying clients, the least you could do is be right. They still tried to bill me for incorrect food returned and uneaten. Owner started brining up her video, but failed to address the countless problems and issues that were all over that "video". Eventually the food that was wrong and that was returned uneaten was refunded but it pales in comparison what the afternoon cost me. Please consider going elsewhere and their health code is a C which I did not know.
