The carne asada fajitas burrito is delicious and filling. My partner ordered the birria tacos and enjoyed them. Their salsas are really good too!

As soon as my friend and I walked in we were greeted with a sign at the register reading $8 for chips and a side of guac. I’ve never been to a Mexican restaurant that charges for tortilla chips before being seated. I ordered an horchata beverage which was served to me from a gallon picked up by the cashier from under the register and shaked to then be poured. Why isn’t it in a cold atmosphere as the jamaica and tamarindo ? A three taco plate will cost you $13 as for the loaded fries $15. The food isn’t served or made with love and intention to have the customer pleased. My friend and I specifically ordered their loaded fries which then we were given loaded nachos. We then confronted the man and he denied hearing my friend say fries, when I specifically heard her myself. The man got offensive and with an attitude proceeded to correct our order. The staff gets bothered if you ask for an extra side of anything since they do only put one of each on your plate! One side of lemon, one side of cucumber and one side of radish. The customer service was extremely poor and the food doesn’t even come out hot. YOURE better off going to your local taco truck.

The short guy who took our order was rude once we told him we ordered asada fries not nachos customer service could be better and for food to be that pricey it should be better too I’ve tasted better Mexican food at tacos tucks also they give you only one slice of radish and only one lemon for three tacos and seem annoyed when you ask for more

Understaffed. Incredibly slow and kept fulfilling orders ahead of us until after an hour and a half of waiting I went and asked when our order was going to be ready. At which point they bumped our order to the front of the queue. They even forgot it was a to go order and I ended up having to eat there when all I wanted was to leave. Massive waste of time. The music was also incredibly loud. I don't care how good the food is if I'm slowly going insane waiting.

Excellent food and service. When we were there the place was packed and I was wishing there were more tables so we could have dined in instead of needing to take our food to

Worst service, meat was not cooked right, I went there expecting the Tijuana street taco experience (I am from Ensenada) I asked the cashier for the tacos with aguacate and asked for two separate orders she brought it In the same plate no avocado on them and when asked her to fix it she said to me she was waisting her time on help us. Not coming back and please don’t use tijuana famous tacos to compare with your’s

The best thing there was the shrimp taco, cooked perfect with a delicious Chipotle crema. But the $8 chips and guac, bland smashed Avocado and stale chips is a pass. The huarache was a rather thin elongated tortilla, not the thick masa vessel it's supposed to be. The topings were ok, just not flavorful. The agua frescas are anything but. Overall a less than average experience.
