This restaurant is a great place to eat. We ate there and the server was so nice. She was bilingual and that was so welcomed because I had family with that didn't speak English. What a great place to eat. Service was outstanding and the food was excellent. Thank you for the great experience.

How did it take me so long to try these guys!?! Their Birria tacos are amazing!!!!!!!!!! We ordered to go, but my husband said that next time we should dine in because of how clean and friendly they were inside.

Atmosphere and service.. Great spot. Graffiti tacos on door and windows was different. Once inside I feel I was immersed into a Mexican town. With hip spanish music playing and videos on screen. Then with Mexican style streamers on ceiling. Store was was very clean. Once inside I was immediately greeted. My server was very friendly, nice, and helpful, and patient. Now the food... I ordered Gordita, campechano (steak and chorizo) taco, and a quesa birria. Got hibiscus Aguas Frescas. Came with chips n salsa. My personal favorite of everything was the Campechano taco. But every was very fresh and good. Flavors really blended together very well. I personally not fan of salsa but thats due to me personally not being a fan of cube tomatoes. But they was big enough to push aside. Hibiscus Agua Fresca was great and delicious. Overall very satisfied and would definitely come back!

My friend and I wanted to try a place we had never been to before. So, we stopped by here on the way home. Our host was very nice. She explained very well how the food was prepared. I ordered a taco with pork and a Gordita with chicken minus the beans. My friend ordered beans and rice. We also had chips and salsa. The chips tasted fresh like they were just made. My friend really liked her beans. My taco was delicious and stuffed with plenty of meat. The pineapple strips on top were a great addition. My gordita was very good, the cilantro tasted very fresh. My friend and I were both very happy with the food, but also our host was very gracious, friendly and helpful. Some of the reviews I have read mention a high price for the food. 3.50 for a taco may seem a bit high, but the taco had three times the meat that you would get from other taco places. Also, all of the food tasted like it was freshly prepared and very filling. Definitely will come back here again!

This place is amazing. If you want some real Mexican food come here. I got cow tongue and my hubby got half a chicken special. Both so amazing and filling. They gave me a great amount of meat cilantro and onion for my tacos. His half a chicken was a real half of chicken with bones and all. Their rice bring me back to my childhood. Just a great place and really good.
