I was served a cold corn in a cup and spent over 50$ for dinner the steak was old and rubbery with so much fat. They blamed the supplier. They didn’t offer a refund. We will not be returning. Not recommended.

Waited in a line for the worst horchata ever for $14. 🤢😭 they also need better organization at festivals!

Should be 0 stars. bought a local flavor deal paid 10 bucks for 20. Went in to use it and they said they would not honor it. I bought it June, expired in December. Acted like, it was my fault for buying the thing. Completely unapologetic.

Also, the place is in a shady as hell area.

DELICIOUS!!! If you want fresh, and authentic, this is your spot! We will 100000% be back. In addition, the owners couldn't have been any nicer if they tried. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Great food and drinks! You have to try the Mexican Rice water. Owners are always pleasant and funny. Also catch them at different festivals. ?

Parking: They can be hard to find but if you go around to the back next to Army recruiting center, they are next to them.

The food is incredible. Hands down the best Mexican food in the area. They catered my son’s birthday party and everyone was raving about how delicious the food was the entire time. Highly recommend!

My tortillas were stale and the horchata tasted like the worst powder mix you can buy

Beware ! Overpriced and bad food. Stay away.

The hours say they open at 11 am but they never open at 11 am. Workers just open whenever. I placed an order over the phone and was told it would take 15 mins when I arrived the workers barely arrived to open..mind you this was 12 pm. This time I call at 11:04 am to confirm they were open but the worker sounded like he was in the car and said they will be opening at 11:30 am today. Very disappointed with the consistency.

Let me tell you something, some of the best taco places are located in the weirdest spots. You don't want to miss these guys. Give them a try and you'll be in for a treat. Highly recommend.

Great little hole-in-the-wall shop behind the Food 4 Less in the back section of the strip mall. Prices are fair, food quality is great and the staff are friendly. Small place mainly for take-out, but a comfy atmosphere. I had the Al pastor tacos, and they were cooked wonderfully and tasted great, as well as the elote! It all looks, smells and tastes great. I highly recommend trying this place for some great tacos. Maps will send you to the wrong location though and I think that's criminal. Hopefully it will be resolved and this place will continue to thrive. I'll definitely be coming back when I get a craving for some authentic, delicious tacos!
