Came in today 10/18 around 3:45ish and were greeted by a girl who is not too happy to be at work she said in Spanish that we can take a seat wherever we’d like and didn’t even smile. We take a seat and the not so happy girl takes our order We order a michelada and a water cup with ice she then brings out a warm michelada with 1 small ice cube and I ask if we can get some ice she then says micheladas don’t come with ice 🤣 never hear of that. She then brings us a cup of ice and we order our food i asked for my tripa tacos extra well done which wasn’t done the tripa was soft. My boyfriend orders carne asada plate and then she just stares at me with a serious face that she wants the menu… she could’ve kindly asked for it I give it to her and she walks away with a bad attitude. Throughout all this I realize my cup of water is dirty from the rim and from the inside I wipe it with a napkin and clearly see it’s dirty. My boyfriends plate of food came out with no rice or beans and I’m guessing the first girl didn’t want to serve us because the other waitress ended up taking over and this second girl had piercings and was much nicer. She then asks the first waitress why it doesn’t have rice or beans and she says that we ordered it like that. we’ve been here many times and have never had issues like this. They need to hire friendlier staff it’s not my fault you don’t want to be at work.

Food was very good. Service was okay. We weren’t asked if we wanted refills, etc.

This place used to be good and over the last five years I believe ownership changed, but something changed to where even the tacos are full of grease. They have a lot of their salsa’s. That are obviously going bad. Their onion and tomato was almost rotten. It was just not good at all.

The food is awful, it's literally on par with microwave dinners you could buy at the local FoodsCo. On top of that, the restaurant isnt exactly hygienic: the silverware have spots on them that were so gross that I ended up asking for a plastic fork and knife instead.

The waitresses are on their phones or watching TV most of the time. When making a request, they treat it as an inconvenience. I am quite unsure if they realize that this is a job, and not their own personal leisure time.

Avoid.

Bad tasting tacos and super expensive. Not recommend at all. Look for another taqueria. Even pollo locos tacos are way better.

I ordered 3 green chicken enchiladas, they come with a side of rice and beans and are topped with melted cheese, crema, lettuce, Mexican cheese, and diced tomatoes. (I forgot to take a photo).

The green salsa on the tortilla is spicy but sooo good. The chicken is seasoned with a red sauce. The enchiladas were filled a the perfect amount of chicken to tortilla ratio.

I ate the entire plate! Well almost, I shared some bites with mom.

She had the tacos buche and birria tacos. She loved the consome. She said the consome, made it the perfect taco.

I personally didn't care for the table chips and salsa, but there is a salsa and sides bar you can get different flavors.

The overall vibe is chill, good music, chill staff. There's a TV playing soccer as well.

Went here with my wife and it was awesome. Food was extremely good and the horchata was nice too! The tacos de pastor are my favorite tacos and they did it well here.

Love going there for tacos

Great salsa bar but super poor enchilada, even tasteless. Very small & tasted mostly like flour. Chile releno looked good but didn’t have much flavor either.

I really didn’t like the food here. The cheese enchiladas were chewy and dry. The relleno was OK but nothing I would go back for.
The salsa bar was nice.

Super delicious food! Forgot to take a picture of my food because I was so hungry 😂. Service wasn't great, our drinks were gone and we never did get refills, and she took forever to clear the table and bring the check. And there was only 3 tables so she had plenty of time to check on us. She was really sweet though. Lol
