While it's s known for its rolled taquitos, the queso birria is a must. The carne asada fríes can be a meal on its own. Prices are elevated compared to street food, but this is a brick and mortar in North Park, so the cost is according to the area. I'm a regular customer and would love to see them adopt a pet friendly policy, as only service dogs are allowed currently. And lastly, I wish they had high chairs with back support, they only have stools. I highly suggest this place!

The servings here are large. You get a lot for your money. Their chips are pretty good. They put toppings on the taquitos. They give you a lot of guac and salsa. Is it the BEST taquitos in town? No. I don’t know where is yet but I have had better at random places I’ve ordered them like Bas Hombres which is very far. I will keep trying. Would definitely return. Appreciate a gluten free option where everything tastes fresh!

FANTASTIC! Wife and I just ate dinner and the food flavors were incredible. Everything is gluten free and we chowed down on chicken and beef taquitos and their in house Queso-tacos! For the queso tacos we did the birria and adobada (spicy pork); amazing!

Had a side of delicious guacamole, rice, two of their in house sauces, and of course sodas and beer.

If you want some good food and/or have a gluten allergy, definitely need to stop if the menu items are what you’re after. Food was incredible and the staff were friendly and helpful!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free Everything!! Enjoy!

Parking: Parking lot outside the facility, free but the spaces are kinda small/tight for width. Lots of people come and go, so space availability was good and fast for openings. Street parking available right next to it and near by all around.

When I think of a tianguis, I think of cooks surrounding a giant comal, serving tacos to order of every guisado one could imagine. The customer and vendors are not separated by a counter, perhaps even having some light conversation while their meat sizzles on the comal and the tortilla formed from a handful of masa once it goes into the press. A dizzying array of toppings are offered once the taco is ready, and it is eaten on the spot.

The experience here is the opposite of a tianguis. There is no comal, there is no salsa bar, no line of agua frescas along the shelf. Instead, you are asked what kind of salsa you would like as a bottle is picked out of the fridge. The spicy salsa is not spicy.

Overall, the food is not bad, the taquitos are crispy and the cheese and guacamole are generous helpings. However, the restaurant does not capture the essence of what makes a tianguis.
