This place is incredible 😍😍 yeah not kidding really good food. Service was great speedy and attentive. Got 3 different Tacos birra, carne asada and al pastor ( marinated pork ). The birra taco wasn't accompanied with consome but whatever it was still good 3rd place, carne asada was delicious 2nd place but al pastor was the best taco 🌮 very tender 1st. That being said I also had a grilled chicken tostada with generous portion of beans sour cream, cheese and lettuce that blew the tacos away and was my favorite. No one at the table was disappointed in their meals. Definitely coming back.

I ordered a California burrito for pick up and it was the worst burrito I’ve ever had. Barely any chicken. It was filled mostly with guacamole that tasted very old. I asked for extra crispy fries and they were cold. I couldn’t even eat my burrito and had to go buy something else. The staff member that took my order said it would be ready in 15. I got there and had to wait an extra 10 minutes for a burrito that ended up tasting awful. I’ve been to this place before and had their mole and it was very good so I’m very disappointed in my last order I picked up. I don’t understand how they could serve really old guacamole to their customers.

Incredible food, quality, attention to detail and care about the ingredients. Super authentic Oaxacan cuisine. The owner was telling us how they import the tlayudas, queso, and seasonings from Mexico. Everything is made from scratch and fresh. The black beans are almost like a sauce, they are so flavorful even from just a light spread. Everything we tried was just amazing, including the salsas. I can see why they stay busy, any wait for a table or the food is worth it. Really nice employees, too.

Great food, fast friendly service. Mole is one of the best I've had, been in south cali since 2003 so that's saying a lot.

Terrible, the service was bad and slow even though they were not busy. The food was mid at best. And way over priced. Don’t go unless you want to be disappointed.
