    I came here on a sunny Saturday by my lonesome. Me time. I have been meaning to try this spot for awhile. It is seriously in a rough patch 'hood of Norwood Ave. It stands by itself as a shack. A few plastic tables to dine on. I got 6 tacos. I wanted to sample. Asada, adobada, buche, tripas, cabeza and lengua. I think the buche was the best. They were good at $1.75-$2 per. But they could use larger corn tortillas. They were too small even doubled. The amount of meat in each was just fine. Onions, cilantro and hot sauces was a self serve station. All outdoor dining. I did have an upset stomach that night but unsure if it was due to this place. The condiments were covered but the radishes were browning and I avoided that. A suggestion is to fill the ice under the trays as it was all melted to water from the new heat of a 75 degree Spring day. The tacos were good but Im unsure about returning unless the sanitary methods upgraded.

    Their special - 3 al pastor tacos plus drink $6.51

    It's a cool spot with plenty of parking. I'm on the hunt for delicious tacos and while the al pastor was a little dry, it was flavorful. The chicken tasted good, too. With prices these days, $6.51 for 3 tacos and a drink is great value. The service was very friendly, the food came out piping hot and quick. I will be back.

    Decent tacos but the meat lacks good flavor/seasoning. Overall the tacos were good and at a great price. They are street tacos and small. The meat is diced very small and doesn't have enough flavoring. I liked the grilled onions but these were minimal. Salsa were just hot and did not have much flavor. Overall a good place for cheap tacos.

    Best tacos in Sac! Guess they changed their name. Still the same bomb tacos. Steak and tripe is my favorite with their green salsa and horchata!

    Small quesadilla & taco

    Can't believe I almost past this place up ! From ordering to receiving my order was great & efficient. I had ordered a small quesadilla with Carne Asada and a Carne Asada taco as well. Both were so delicious from the quality of the meat, being tender and seasoned just right. also love how they put cheese on the outside layer of the quesadilla it's a five out of five stars for me!

    Al Pastor is Beautiful and sooo good!!Wish they had the pineapples but still delish!!

    Food was great!! However they were out of pineapples and that's my fav part sooo that's the only reason for the 4 stars!

    Been looking for a new local taco spot and this is definitely it. Tried the special with three tacos de al pastor and a drink. Also tried the quesadilla de asada. They are a little small but delicious. The horchata was so good! I'll be back soon

    Three el pastor tacos and a horchata

    One of the best el pastor in Sacramento. Can't beat the 6.21 special three tacos and a Horchata. I recommend this place to anyone.

At this point it feels like bait and switch -- why put it on the menu if you never have it? The low rating is mainly for the young lady at the register. She was rude, spent the whole time whispering to a guy who works there and laughing while looking at me. Felt disrespected as a customer. Found Beto's down the street instead. Decent food, decent prices, and they actually serve what's on their menu. Won't be back. 2. Short + Punchy No tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Ever. 4 visits in 7 days. Zero times did they have tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Starting to think the menu is false advertising. Register girl was rude too -- whispering + laughing at me with her coworker/BF the whole time. Beto's down the street has better food, better prices, and no attitude. Go there instead. 3. Balanced but Firm Frustrating experience Food here can be okay when they have it, but the inconsistency is a problem. I came 4 times in one week hoping for tripas, lengua, or cabeza and was told they were out every single time. If you don't carry menu items regularly, take them off the menu. Service also needs work. The teen at the register was whispering to another employee and laughing while taking my order. Made me uncomfortable. Beto's down the street doesn't have these issues -- they stock what they advertise and the service is solid.

Ordered a few different tacos, tostada and super nachos (with chicken). Their meat was seasoned to perfection. Actual flavors and not just salt. A bit pricey for each taco but the portion of taco is huge and honestly two did the job for me. Give it a try

Each taco had a generous amount of meat, was well-prepared, and tasted fresh.

If I could, I'd give this place 6 stars just for that! Also, I'd recommend the cucumber lime agua fresca drink. It tasted refreshing and the perfect amount of each flavor.
