“Another excellent restaurant in Pilsen! The tuna tostada probably won best dish, but the octopus Sonoran dog won most interesting bite and something you won't find anywhere else. Our kids loved the plantain tacos so much that we got two orders of them and they ate them all before I would even have one! It is a bit pricy as the sizes are small, but I would say that all of the food was worth it.“

“This restaurant has a lot going for it – the place was awesome, and the food was genuinely delicious. However, I was somewhat put off by their automatic 18% gratuity for just two people. While I understand automatic gratuity for larger groups, imposing it on a small party removes the incentive for exceptional service and the diner's ability to reward accordingly. The food was great, but this policy left a slightly sour taste.“

“Best steak tacos I've ever had. Period.

The shrimp Diabla tacos were always wonderfully tasty.

They only take cash or online order so keep that in mind. The food takes a little longer than what you might expect for a taco spot (my order was 8 tacos with rice/beans that took roughly 25 minute) but the wait is probably a result of the food being made to order and easily worth the delay. Also homemade corn tortillas give them a pillowy texture that's both sweet/savory.“
