Phenomenal all around!!…read more This is a cute lil outdoor food truck sorta situation right on the MA/RI line. They have a big parking lot & a nice deck outside with picnic tables to enjoy your food. The man working was so patient with us, answering all of our questions & taking all of our orders. I ordered 3 tacos (pastor, carnitas, & pollo) & a mandarin Jarritos for $14. We were in a large-ish group & all 5 of our orders came out within 15 minutes or so. Everything was PHENOMENAL. The verde sauce was so tasty & refreshing, I had to douse all of my tacos in it. I can't wait to come back again when I'm in the area - so affordable, quick, & tasty.

The food is fresh and made to order, so don't expect a 30 second turn around. I had the maiz Al pastor and my kid had the chicken harina (gringo style). Both were phenomenally fresh complete with tender proteins, crisp toppings and soft tortillas. The flavors were authentic and I felt like the prices were reasonable for what you got. The man that took my order was kind and helpful. The parking lot is a little small and awkward to navigate but there's several off street spots available. There's some picnic tables if you want to eat there but no inside dining that I could discern.

Amazing food and menu. Will have to return multiple times to try the rest of the menu. Went with…read morethe Mojo Pork and Korean Fried Cauliflower tacos. Both flavorful and prepared perfectly.

Visited again back in June 2025 solo as a birthday treat & noticed the POS calculated a 25% tip came up as $9.33 instead of $7.02 on a $28.08 bill. It was odd but still tipped well.

Fell for the consum"ay" with the burria tacos 2nd visit, tacos were a sloppy greasy mess. Burria tacos tasted old and reheated, fried avocado tacos were gross, The drinks, we were not forewarned that a double means you pay double the price for a drink. Bill went from affordable to overpriced. To be honest, this place doesn't serve authentic tacos. It's one of those taco places that invents greasy messy (mac and cheese topped everything pun) tacos and I think they should serve a basic good fresh street taco that isn't dependent on some greasy add ons to try to be clever. Probably won't be back. Thanks

But here are some of my honest opinions: Likes: - staff was great! Super nice and friendly. I gave an extra star mainly for them. - the Queso fries were good - the birra tacos were good but just a bit on the salty side. - the atmosphere looked cool Dislikes: - The boom boom crispy shrimp tacos- I don't enjoy lettuce in tacos and they loaded it with way too much sauce. It felt drenched so I couldn't really finish it. - Nashville hot fried chicken tacos- again too much lettuce and way too much sauce which seemed like sour cream. The chicken wasn't crispy and the taste was just ok. - and avocado tacos- way too much mayo all over this taco. It was overbearing. Might work for some people but not for me. - the smell of the unfinished wood was a bit too strong for my senses. Im always open to trying new taco spots and I hope they keep improving.

The menu is very prominent and easy to read. Order at the counter and pay, and the food will be brought to your table. Staff were bi-lingual which is always a plus~ I did notice that a bell must be rung if you need something because the server is mostly in the back probably working. I could hear from the back, the popusas being made! They were the best! Absolutely delicious ~ I ordered the the al pastor tacos. They were ok. Very greasy for my taste. Popusas were my favorite!

Rating: 4.3 Came to…read moretry for lunch. It's a small Mexican restaurant located in a plaza in Johnston. Parkings are available on the plaza. Inside is small with few seats and a counter where you place orders. It was not busy when we went so we placed an order and sat down. We got a homemade pineapple juice and few tacos including chorizo, steal, al pastor, and fish. Fish was not able to be ordered as single for some reason. Pineapple juice was tasty and natural so it wasn't too sweet. It was foamy maybe from blending with blender? The tacos were pretty good. Everything was seasoned well and came with some spicy sauce and lime. Personally I liked the chorizo and fish tacos the most. Steak/al pastor was a tad bit dry but wasn't bad. Service was good. Took a but for food to come out but I can tell they make a lot of things in the restaurant and prepares it after its been ordered. Overall, the place was good. It's a solid Mexican restaurant around the area. I can't say it's the best I've had though as there are a-lot of good competitors in RI. I would get chorizo tacos and their juice again if I come back.

The staff was competent, effective and you can tell they were organized and prepared, not their first rodeo. They got Us in for a walk in waitlist within 15mins which shocked me as we were 4th in line on their waitlist link. Having a waitlist link was impressive in itself tbh. Love the communication for customers... showing the wait time and which spot in line you have. Chips and water came out quick even with the packed restaurant. At the end, I believe a manager, came by to ask how our dining experience was and to clear the table. Love that ! Nice that the manager jumps in to help and takes time to check in with customers. I was very impressed by their operations. I had el pastor tacos which the cinnamon-ish flavor profile wasn't my taste but the tacos were good if you enjoy that, came with black refried beans and rice. Rice was really good! I had the spicy Diablo margaritas with tajin rim and really enjoyed that as well. My bf had the birria tacos which came with the dip and he said it was mid, could've been better as wasn't much flavor. I also had shrimp ceviche which was ok too. Was hoping for more flavor.
