tldr: Hands down best tacos in the Midwest. I’ve been coming here for Taco Tuesday for over a decade and it never disappoints. Friendly staff, good selection, authentic street-style tacos.
Bonus: don’t forget to ask for the spicy ghost pepper and carolina reaper hot sauce - it’s out of this world

We've been here over 20 times and the food and service are consistently excellent. They have a variety of homemade hot sauce's including a reaper sauce.

One of the better cheap taco places in the area. Taco Tuesdays are a great value. Margaritas were pretty good as well. This is not a fancy restaurant. Just pretty good Mexican
