“First timer. Ratings are on the mark. The food was delicious and the service was great. Street tacos had amazing flavor and the burrito was stuffed. Ask for extra “onions/cilantro” Nice change to the overpriced spots on the Main Street. We took “to-go” and walked to Lakeside beach for incredible view. Definitely coming back.“

“Super delicious and authentic Mexican restaurant. I believe they have two locations since the facade in the photo here is not this location, but this one is a sweet casual sit down or order to go spot that shared a building with a market as well. Got the Carne Asada and Pollo Asada Super Burritos and all three of the fresh salsas from the nacho bar and they were so delicious. Generous portions I think each burrito was like 2 lbs 😂. Would love to try other menu items. Service was so lovely as well!“

“I highly recommend the spicy bloody Mary.I wish I took a photo of the pepper before consumption. My wife who enjoys spicy food far beyond my own weak palate says it was by far the spiciest she's had. According to a quick Google, it turned out to be a habanero.The burritos and tacos were delicous and the service was exceptional.“

“Everywhere I travel I’m always looking for what locals eat and try to steer clear of the tourist traps. This place passes the test. Nuzzled in near a subway and some other place. Soccer on the TV , with full Spanish commentary. Food … our party had street tacos x 8, quesadillas, and a pork plate. Food came out fast and full of flavor. We were all smiles and silence chowing down.“

“We stopped at Super Tacos for a quick bite before heading to the Gondola. We each got 2 carne asada tacos and they were really good. I liked that they use 2 tortillas and cook the outer one a little more so the taco doesn’t fall apart—smart move.

I added guac to mine which was tasty, but the real winner was the green chili salsa… wow, so good and full of flavor. Service was fine, nothing amazing, but it’s an outdoor-only spot so it’s all about the food anyway.

I’d definitely come back and try a burrito next time.“
