    A hit small and bland. Most of us will happily pay $13 for a burrito that's huge but not $10 for a small burrito.
    Michael L.

    They didn't serve the beer and cold glasses and the bottle was a bit too warm. The meat burrito is a little bit plain and the sauce or salsa was not very spicy. They do not serve chips and salsa. I've never seen a Mexican restaurant they did not serve chips and salsa. They who have the tall bottles of Coca-Cola like in Mexico without the corn syrup crap. I thought the portions were very small and this makes it not worth going back for.

    If your the area, they have dollar tacos!! Yes, dollar tacos!!! This is my secret I have been holding out on you yelpers because I didn't want anyone to know about this joint.

    I was on my lunch break getting my car smogged next door and wanted to grab a quick bite to eat. I yelped it and found this little taco shop was withing walking distance. Walked in and looked at the menu and it was very straightforward. Tacos and burritos. Smelled good. The girl at the counter was super nice and very helpful. She made recommendations and told me about Tuesday and Thursday specials. I ordered the 4 taco lunch special. 2 Carne. 2 al pastor. and a drink. $7.99. The tacos came with cucumbers and salsa etc. My tacos were really good. Definately authentic style. not too greasy but reminded me of outside vendor styled. I wanna try the burritos next. will be back for sure.

    Taco Al Pastor with the guacamole salsa. Delicious!

    A really good solid joint. Not a big menu and half of the stuff on it I've never heard of. But they've got tacos, burritos, and quesadillas; that's good enough for me! We got chicken tacos, al pastor tacos, and a carne Asada burrito(without lettuce) It was pretty good. Tacos are small, I ate 4. But delicious and packed with meat. My boyfriend said the carne Asada burrito was good but that the tacos were the way to go. Oh and the guacamole salsa is a must. It wasn't spicy, just added some good flavor. They have dollar taco nights so those will most likely be the nights for us.

It was the best chimichanga I've ever had. Thankfully, there were no bell peppers or onions, which is usually mixed in with the meat. It was strictly cheese and great tasting beef, which was a winner! The black bean puree was simply delicious. I would ask for all beans next time as I don't prefer rice. They have some unique items on their menu, including a bone marrow burger, and many different steak and chicken plates. They also have a meat market next door as well, and I can't wait to come back both to the restaurant and to check out the meat market. See you soon!

They have a huge menu and the butcher is next door. The assorted meat plates looked delicious and generous --I'd try one of those next time. We had margaritas, beer, and my personal favorite, a Jamaica with chili salt on the outside of the glass (great for balancing sweet and spicy/salty) and a Jamaica popsicle on top to melt into the drink instead of diluting it with ice. Our server was great friendly, fast, with a great sense of humor. We also enjoyed the singer playing an acoustic guitar-- he played a variety of styles at just the right volume for us to have an easy conversation.

We tried the horchata matcha, which was incredibly flavorful and perfectly balanced, and the blueberry matcha, which was also delicious and refreshing. For food, we ordered the CC Burrito and added carne asada, absolutely amazing! Everything was packed with flavor, and the tater tots on the side were the perfect addition. The salsa deserves its own shoutout because it was THAT good. The customer service was excellent too. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the whole vibe made us want to come back... which we did the very next day! This time we tried the tres leches espresso and the iced churro espresso, and both drinks were incredible. We'll definitely be coming back on future trips and referring friends and family!

Tucked away at the end of a small strip mall the parking was free and easy. The interior was clean and the booths were comfortable.
