hard shell tacos bomb shrimp ceviche bomb everything looks delish
1st time visiting. And it did not disappoint. The food was delicious. I didnt expect it to be a restaurant out of someone's home but the set up was cool. We had their taco dorado, the campechana cocktail, the baja fish tacos and shrimp tacos. And agua fresca. Will for sure be returning.
Best tacos I’ve had in a while. I tend to do the soft tacos when I got places but the hard tacos were sooooo good.

We came at rush hour during the Thursday special. Parking was limited and we had to wait a while for the food but it was well worth it. Prices are super reasonable considering the portions and grocery prices now.

Customer service was great despite them being so busy! Can’t beat it
