Would give 6 stars if I could. Some of the best tacos I’ve had. So cool that they make the tortillas fresh to order. The churros were out of this world, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find one this good again. 10/10 will be back!
January 2026
Food was good. They have a salsa bar with a variety of salsas and other taco essentials. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The food came out quick. The music was a bit loud so it was hard to talk to each other.
December 2025
Tacos were good and made quickly. The salsa bar was a must, loved trying the different salsas and toppings. Carne asada fries were delicious and definitely a lot for what you pay! Recommend getting loaded fries to share, and a couple tacos each
