    Ami L.

    Wow, this truck is now my go to for legit Mexican food. Their quesabirria is spot on and we finally found pastor that is more similar to what we were used to in LA. They are new to town so the lines are still short/non-existent but I'm sure it won't be long before it gets busier.

    My al pastor taco with barley any meat...

    Horrible slow service. Very unreliable service, every time I've come. Hope they get new management.

    Stopped by the other day. Tbh Taco Bell is better. Way over priced. Pretentious food. Rude staff. A disgrace to Shawnee

    Fantastic tacos. I tried the quesabirria, carne asada, carnitas, and some others. The salsas were also really good.

    Pros: menu is amazing, flavors were fantastic and cannot rave enough about the food…read more Cons: the concrete floor makes it so loud in there the acoustics are terrible. It wasn't even full and we could barely hear each other and there was only four people total talking. Also, we could barely hear the server while he was a great server himself we could not hear him, and they were completely understaffed. Our meals came out much later than they should have for the amount of people and our fourth person got their meal about 10 minutes later. While the manager or chef made it right by taking off the entrée and providing us bubbles, I am worried this place will not make it due to the service issues and the aesthetics inside which make it unbearable to hear. Too bad they picked this location. I feel like it would be a successful restaurant somewhere else. We will definitely go back when the patio is open

    This is a Mexican Spanish fusion restaurant. The food is outstanding!…read more I wish more people would try their food. There were so many different options but it's not another Mexican food restaurant. They have enchiladas but they have so much more Everything we ate was delicious and we will definitely go back. If Mexican food sounds good and you'd like to try some Spanish food as well, this restaurant is a gem. This is the first time trying a Mexican/Spanish fusion restaurant in KC and we're happy we did. The atmosphere is pleasant and we really enjoyed the experience. I'd give this restaurant 10 stars if I could.

    This place always hits the spot! of the time! We typically go on Tuesdays because they started…read moreback their dollar tacos. I always get Al Pastor street tacos with cilantro and onion. They are so good. The flavor from the meat with the freshness from the veggies is unreal. They have awesome salsa. I typically use the green sauce. It is very spicy and goes so well with the tacos. We plan on going back soon and trying something else.

    Very much a hole-in-the-wall joint. The restaurant is not in good repair but we will return to try…read moremore of their yummy food. We had one chicken empanada, one chicken taco, two pastor tacos, two carnitas, one barbacoa, and chips with guacamole. The guacamole is amazing and we will return solely for this single, tasty offering. The tacos are authentically mexican; just simple, bland, yummy goodness It's just hard to describe how something that doesn't have a lot of flavor can be so good and we aren't hot sauce people so that wasn't even touched. The service was okay, friendly enough but nothing over the top. Someone mentioned in a review that it isn't the restaurants fault that the landlord won't fix the ceiling but I find issue in that even the vents are disgusting. If it were my restaurant I would do everything in my power to make it look nice and clean enough for people to want to return a million times over. Like I said, we will probably be back but it cannot go without mentioning.
