My family and I were passing through town on the way from a trip and were craving tacos. We decided to give this place a chance given the 4.5 star rating. From the start, the cashier was friendly and courteous. I did not catch her name but she was the highlight of this place. The atmosphere was that of a potentially great hole in the wall establishment with seating inside and out. Unfortunately, the food was not the best. I initially ordered an al pastor quesadilla and a taco. While the rest of my family order an assortment of carne asada and al pastor tacos and fries. For those of us that ordered al pastor items, we were extremely disappointed, which is an understatement. What we got was boiled pork in some sauce that does not resemble the traditional Mexican meat. Forget about the "Trompo" or rotating spit with pineapple that the meat is usually prepared and cooked on, we would have been happy with grilled marinated pork slices or bits and some pineapple. Even the cashier said we could change the items out for carne asada as she delivered them. Which we did after trying the meat. Afterwards we ate some of the carne asada items but did not finish them because it tasted like re-heated day old ground beef. I only ate the beans and rice that came with my meal, less than a third of my carna asada quesadilla before throwing it away. This was the first time I have thrown away a majority of my food at a restaurant. My recommendation to management is to look at the meat selection, at least carne asada and al pastor, and revaluate how it is cooked and prepped. If need be, source better meat, whether from a new supplier or from a grocery store like Aldi, which has al pastor way more authentic than what is currently served. Also, there was way too much meat on the items, which may seem like an odd complaint but it is better to have regular portions of quality meat than an abundance of poor quality meat.

It was gross made with no love and I gave it back and didn’t want my money back because they probably need it more to buy some salt or some type flavor for there meat

It's not horrible, but it's not worth a second visit. Had a carne asada burrito, it was bland. Rice was mehh, beans were mehh, meat was mehh, tortilla was excellent. Their salsa bar was mehh but spicy red and green, lacked flavor. This is a restaurant that just throws food together and puts little effort into mastering a memorable experience for the taste buds. Bite after Bite, I was hoping it would get better, but to no avail, I was left with a void that this place could not fill. Super Taco, not so super.

I've been coming here for years and I'm sad to say today was not it at all. Got a asada burrito and it had absolutely no flavor. Even the green salsa was like what???? I wasn't even mad just extremely disappointed.

The service was top tier.
The food portions were generous.
The torta was delicious and the tacos were packed with meat!
Highly recommend.
Only improvement, if any, would be to have some music inside the restaurant.
