Very clean place and good service, the sopes, burritos and tripa with red sauce are the absolute best, any time am by the area I come over here.

Red sauce is fire, make sure to get a Jamaica fresh water to stop the burning in your mouth 😉

The service is awful.
This lady (owner) was mean to us for the las cumple of times and No custumer deserves that. By the way we always tip 30%.
No more Terco Leon.

Never been to this place before I’ve passed it a coupe times before. As I headed to work I stopped in for a taco dinner and couple extra tacos. I ate one taco while driving to work….. it’s delicious, I didn’t eat the rest of the food until a little while later even after slightly reheating it, food was still delicious.

The food is to die for. Very Authentic, brings memories of my childhood.
The birria is a must!! The sopes are delicious. The quesadillas with tortillas a mano are also a must!

The queso fundido taco was the best taco I’ve had in my life! All of the other tacos have been amazing too - along with their guacamole. Great restaurant!

Been several times and every single dish has delivered. The family working there is so kind and gracious, with remarkable efficiency for it only being the three (sometimes two) of them. The prices are always reasonable too- but the most important thing is that their salsa isn’t just authentic chile arbol and crema verde but is packed with unique flavor. I always make a point of bringing visitors.

Some of the best tacos I’ve had in a REALLY long time. Well priced and a vast menu that is good for vegetarians too! Definitely will be coming back.

Good clean food, family owned. Very nice people that care about the food the serve. Their salsa - red and green is exceptional. Indoor us could use some work but food is very good
