Food is ok.
4 stars for their Tamales!
It's a little pricey at 3.89 a tamal but definitely tasteful and my favorite 😍

🚨The owner replied to my review and stated that they don’t sell rice pudding (arroz con leche)and for me to make sure that I’m talking about the same restaurant 🚨
🚨I went with my cousin and my aunt, they ordered 4 burritos and two aguas de Jamaica to go, and we also got a little cheese cake and the rice pudding from the fridge🚨
🚨crazy to gaslight me, when they can check their cameras and can easily see my aunt grab them from their fridge where the sodas are at🚨 and watch us pay for them

Went this morning and purchased this at 11:39AM we live 5 minutes from the restaurant, we put them in the fridge when we got home, and barely took them out to eat at 5:33PM
To my surprise this is what I got when I opened it
Extremely disappointed

Check your arroz con leche in advance

Pretty good spot for tacos. I had carne asada, adobada, and a birria. The salsas were good and the tacos had a lot of meat.
The quality of the meat was not the best (it wasn’t bad though) and the flavor was just fine. I’d go back if it was my only option (they’re open until 3am), they satisfied the craving for tacos but not memorably. Good service.

Leslie was incredibly friendly she helped everyone in the restaurant. Super good food and great prices. Santaneros come over and try this place you won't regret it.

Excellent food and it was a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoy the music, which was excellent...90s funk/lowrider jams were perfect for a Saturday afternoon. Lengua & asada tacos with a tamale...hit the spot.

Most disgusting tacos i have ever tasted in my life the meat was horrendous and very peculiar, i dont even think it was meat it had to of been dog or rat meat they need a serious health inspection this is going to get people sick such a waste of money.

Your food is trash!

They probably deserve a 4 overall but I’m going based off overall score including service and the tamale. Service was planned, cold, calculated, like a serial killer. The guy at the counter had 0 ounces of personality and made it known, he was 0% friendly and felt like he had no need to. First turn off. Food is what’s important right? That’s what matters, well the food saved this place because it’s the best part. I had a variety of tacos, the best were the tacos de lengua. We ordered costilla en salsa verde (not sure the name on the menu but basically they’re tender ribs/riblets in salsa verde) those were spectacular!!! It wasn’t my meal and I feel like I ate most of it! We decided to eat outside because there really isn’t a place to eat inside the restaurant, besides who would want to eat inside if they could with that guy at the counter. We also had another variety of tacos to try. It was early April and the weather was chilly so we ate quickly and left. Overall, food is great but service and atmosphere that is created could be better and more welcoming.
On a side note, I want to say the way I discovered this place was the night before because I am not a local. I was here for a concert and needed to Door Dash and saw this place. I ordered the mini tacos meal I believe is what it is called. It’s delicious and comes with beans and rice. It was good, filling, and they did a great job of packing all the salsas and condiments/sides. I also ordered a tamale and this is where things went wrong. They sent a tamale that had been put in a microwave for like 10 minutes and was stuck to the paper. It was completely overheated and overcooked.

I've tried several taquerias around, but this one is special. The owner is a very friendly guy and I completely recommend nachos con birria and their asada burrito uff.. Delightful
