One of the best taco places around. We got one of every taco and the standouts were any of the fish or seafood ones. Also highly recommend the Sonora taco. Service was a bit slow even though not too many people were there, but sauces were excellent.

The taco stand is delicious and has excellent prices. The staff is super friendly and Damien, our cashier, was awesome! I highly recommend the taco stand for authentic mexican food. Their churros are also the best

A staple for friends visiting for high quality tacos and burritos. If you have a little sweet tooth the churros with the dulce de leche absurdly delicious

Had the al pastor tacos w/ guac & chips. Food was delicious. Place gets busy so expect a wait for your food. Salsa stand in the back next to the fountain drinks.

The grilled shrimp (camaron) taco was very good. The shrimp was plump and great flavor with the sauce, cabbage and tortilla.

The al pastor was very disappointing. The meat was burnt and very greasy. I’ve had al pastor plenty times before and it was the most greasy one I had. I’m not convinced all that added oil was necessary. It’s weird that they had a piece of whole pineapple on top of the stacked al pastor meat by the bbq grill but the pineapples in the tacos didn’t look or taste freshly cut. They were mushy! The whole pineapple still had skin on it, with no signs of being sliced. I guess it was just a decor and they use pre-cut (maybe canned?) pineapples. Not the same.

Carne asada tasted decent, but had lots of black bits. The grill needs to be cleaned more often…

The sauce bar was messy and could’ve benefited from more staff attention. The lime wedges looked old and discolored.

Although the shrimp tacos were good, I wouldn’t return considering the overall experience.
