“Tried a 2 pupusa plate and 2 shrimp tacos shared for 2 people. I tried the frijole pupusa which is beans and cheese, I thought it was okay. The one the BF got was very cheesy. The shrimp tacos were good. It was enough food for the two of us, we even took a shrimp taco home. Order at the counter, a small simple room in the back to eat, or outside in front. Mexican music was playing.

Vegetarian options: They have bean and cheese pupusa, I think also a cheese only pupusa. They did not have vegetarian "meat" options for tacos. But you could get a vegetarian burrito with beans and no meat, probably quesadilla also.“

“The restaurant is not big. Theirs no tables, only a countertop to eat standing up. But that's perfect when you're on the go or don't mind eating in your car. The menu is pretty basic, but the food is on point and full of flavor. If you like a little kick with your food, I suggest you add the red sauce, but the mild green sauce is just as good. Don't go too late because they do run out. Stop by and try my usual order. 2 sopes and 3 tacos with both the red and green sauce.“

My interactions with them was amazing as well. They were willing to explain menu items as well as were considerate about my preferences, whether I wanted it to be spicy or not.

Mojarra

“I was doing my laundry next door and wandered over to see the menu. Chilaquiles being my most favorite healthy food in the universe, I consider myself a connessueir of saucy chips.
Aside from my delicious chilaquiles, the atmosphere on this very hot day was cool and inviting inside. The walls were painted a beautiful dappled orange and the art on those walls was cheerful and tropical. I wished to be transported back to Nayarit as sipped the most cold delicious sweet red drink that I can never spell or pronounce properly.
Mexican restaurants might shy away from making very pale, very awkward people like myself as spicy as they normally prepare dishes like Chilaquiles, so I do use a generous dousing of Tapatio on mine, but aside from that the dish was absolutely perfect. The cashier was extremely forgiving of my clumsy attempt at ordering in Spanish and I was so grateful for his bit of English helping me along.
5 stars. I will do laundry next door and eat Chilaquiles here again and again!“

“Located in a very small "strip mall" type location so I think some people may not give this place much consideration. But... I decided after a decade of living locally to go in and get a taco plate. The atmosphere is not the greatest but the food is amazing! And the portions are HUGE. I was able to get 3 meals out of one $15 plate there. Great flavor, perfect amount of hot sauces, they even put a giant jalapeno on top. I highly recommend. They also serve Breakfast.“

I would give it a 4.5 star rating just because it took at least 20min for the food to come out (it was 5pm- we were the only ones there). If you know what you want I would suggest calling your order in. Reasonably priced as well.“

“I was pleasantly surprised with this place, the menu has combos and good deals to share with one o even 100s. There is some indoor seating and the entire place is neat. The service was good and the food was delicious. The carnitas where fresh and flavorful and the cueritos where soft and easy to eat they would just melt in my mouth. The combo for two came with two drinks (you can choose between agua frescas or soda) and with tortillas, beans and rice. The sides where ok but nothing out of the world, if you don't like them you can just get the carnitas but in my opinion the combos are a great deal compared to other places. 100% recommended!!!“

“The food was well seasoned and hot when it was brought out to us. The reason I gave it a 4 is because I had trouble having a conversation across the booth due to the loud music. However, that is the atmosphere of this place: Loud. It's very lively during karaoke nights where anyone can volunteer to sing whether you know how to or not. I also gave it a 4 because the price of a 16oz cup of coffee is $3. Love this place for the food and the music, not the coffee.“

“A burrito on the level of gourmet, made-to-order with protein of choice, griddled brown. The al pastor, unique in its seasoning — a bit Middle Eastern in spice, harking to its origins.

Serving construction workers and truck drivers alike, this roadside taco truck clearly gets something right.

I simply showed her 2 of my fingers and said, " 2 cabeza y 2 al pastor". I'll give it a try why not!10 minutes later,a plate of hot tacos came out. I paid 2 dollars per taco for a total of 8 dollars. Sat on thr bench and gobbled those delicious tacos down!Cabeza was not too dry and had right amount of aromatic flavor. Al pastor was a little bit spicy. Lots of construction workers were coming as I left. I think I will be back!“
