One of the best flavors for taco shops in town. Food quality is amazing and the hot sauce selection is incredible. Only giving 4 stars because the cost of items don't match the portions. I never see this place very busy and I'm sure that attributes to what I'm seeing. Still a great place to go and the owner is extremely nice. I have never seen him take a day off.

The staff is always great. The owner continues to wear many hats but still gives you service with a smile. The servings have always left me satisfied. The place is really clean and the atmosphere is really nice. The flavors are spot on.

Overcharged us 50$ for 6 street tacos and 2 Birra quesadillas. And was talking shit in Spanish thinning I didn’t understand. And the food was not that good for 50$ much better places for the price range

Staff is great, food is mid at best. Birria was decent, birria was okay, and the Baja was the worst shrimp taco I ever had. Tasted like the boiled the shrimp, then covered half the taco in lettuce. Wouldnt go back

I had their al Pastor street tacos, and they were excellent. They counter staff were very friendly. I would definitely go back to this restaurant. My sister got the carne asada tacos. She said the al pastor tacos were much better. I had let her try mine.

Been coming here for years! They have the best breakfast burritos I’ve ever had, and I’ve tried quite a few places around the area and they don’t quite hit just like this place does! Make sure you ask for fries instead of hashbrowns. It’s amazing. ?

The food is so phenomenal. Especially the quesabirria. I should've asked for consommé on a side.
