One of the best places to get tacos and especially consome de res!!! This is a family business, and everyone is so lovely and friendly. It’s a nice cozy place, and we will keep visiting time to time when we need something to cheer us up during the cold weather!

The food was absolutely amazing. This place deserves 10 stars. I got the birria tacos and the steak tacos with the consome, my friend got the birria quesadilla and lord when I say the meat was bursting with flavors and the salsa was the perfect addition to add a little kick to the tacos. Amazing food I will be back !

It's an odd place because it's in a residential area. Looks like you're walking into a home but they've completely turned into a small dine in restaurant. I wasn't sure what to expect but I had been told by a friend to give it a try. I ordered menudo(soup:only weekends) and 2 cabeza tacos($27). I ordered to go so by the time I made it home and ate my tacos they didn't taste that great. I'm sure if I would've ate them there freshly made, they would have been 👌. As far as the menudo though...it was the BEST menudo I've tasted hands down!!!! It had that homemade taste and they package it with all the toppings paired with 3 large handmade tortillas. They weren't greedy with the tripa either. Also added pata(cows feet) which makes it that much more tasty. You want menudo and wanting the original homemade taste and flavor? Come check this spot out!!!

It's been a long time since I've tried something SO DELICIOUS!! 🤤🤤🤤😛
They also have a table of sauces and accessories that add a special touch, they also have tortillas on hand.
Really very rich and the service is also very very friendly.
I recommend it 1000%

It is a small restaurant inside a little cute hut, which gives it its authenticity. The service was fast and inexpensive for the amount of meat that was put into the tacos. Even though the tortillas are small, they do use two. I tried the birria, cabeza, and surtido tacos. I give them a 4 on taste for the fact they could use more salt. I know they don't fry their tortillas, but if they were, I would think they could retain a better flavor profile. On the other hand, the horchata was definitely a 5 for the legit flavor. I definitely recommend coming by and trying this place.

Delicious tacos and torta. Very friendly and they were happy to explain items on the menu. Feels like you are driving into a backyard, but there is room for parking on the dirt, indoor & outdoor tables and a small play structure for kids.
