One of the three best taquerias that I have ever eaten at in the state of Kentucky. We had a…read moreselection of authentic tacos and burritos. Pastor, asada, tinga, lingua, and barbacoa. Everything was incredible and the service was even better. The place isn't fancy, but it doesn't have to be, it looks like it literally hasn't changed since the mid 90s and usually that is the sign of a great place to eat when it comes to authentic taquerias. Next time we are in Lexington this is where we'll eat, again. PS there are wicked good homemade refrigerated table hot sauces. The Habanero is straight fire.

It comes with chips, a bowl of salsa, and three street‑size tacos. It also includes a dessert. Everything was simply outstanding. I plan on returning. The service was very good, and the atmosphere was nice and quiet since there weren't many people there. I will warn you that the dining area is quite small, so if you plan on going during a typically busy time, you may want to join the waitlist.

I ordered the enchilada with both sauces and it came with rice and beans. We shared the cheese dip with chips which was really good. Their in house sauces are amazing and each one has its own level of spice. Everything we tried was on point and the service was both friendly and accommodating. Nothing short of to be expected. The atmosphere is also really fun with so much cool art decorating the space. Definitely a delicious and authentic Mexican restaurant I'd return again and again.

Everything tasted so authentic and full of flavor. I also loved the environment and decorations throughout the restaurant- it felt warm, welcoming, and very true to the culture. The only downside is that it is a little pricier than some other Mexican places I've tried. My meal came out to around $47 just for me, but honestly I didn't mind because you can tell the quality is there and I'm always happy to support a local business and the people behind it.

I stopped in at 2pm on a Saturday. I was the only person besides the owner. The decor inside is not…read moreyour traditional restaurant layout but what I've seen in Mexico where there a hand crafted items, piñatas, and some tables for eating but have no napkins or hot sauces on them. They are bare. I ordered from a very limited menu, jalapeño and bean tamales, refried beans and rice. The flavor of the meal was excellent. The tamales were wrapped in the corn husk and she did a great job heating them up, they were very moist. The beans served on the side were very dark brown. Almost like black beans but not. The rice was not your typical Mexican rice but a much finer and smaller grain, almost like basmati rice. Great flavor in everything. My only complaint and this is just me. I prefer a plate and real utensils for a $20 meal. Not paper plate and plastic ware. The beans and rice were reheated in their plastic container.

I ordered Chile Verde which is pork in a green or tomatillo sauce. The pork was smaller chunks but still juicy and the sauce was very good holding a little heat and plenty of flavor. The sauce still had the seeds from the tomatillos which I think enhanced the flavor. The plate came with rice which was fair and a black refried bean which I also liked. The tortillas were corn at my request and were good. I would eat here again. The place is upstairs in a community of bars and restaurants. The ambiance was just OK
