This is it, this is my new favorite spot for Mexican cuisine in Itasca. Saw the photo of the Birria Gordita so I gave it a try. And on God I was happy to be eating. If you are on lunch or just clocked out or even just passing through stop here because good.

When I entered the restaurant, I was greeted immediately. The person that took my order was extremely nice. She quoted 10 minutes to make the food, but it was done before that. It appeared to be a mostly a takeout location as there are just a few small tables. As I got my food and was leaving the rest of the staff gave me a farewell. I took the food back to my hotel which was just around the corner. The tortillas were obviously homemade. I got the taco meal and ordered the Asada, Pastor, & Chicken taco. Honestly, as far as seasoning I couldn’t tell a huge difference between them but they were all delicious. I also got chips and salsa. I don’t usually like green salsa but I loved theirs. It was very well balanced and had a lot of developed flavors. I could have made a meal out of just the chips and salsa.

Excellent service, the al pastor tacos are very good, and the horchata is the best.

Picked up some tacos from here the other night and they were quite good. My wife had the steak taco dinner which included 3 tacos, rice and beans. All were to her liking. I had the quesabirrias dinner. This was my first experience with quesabirrias and they were delicious. The beef was a stewed beef of sorts with great flavor and just enough spice. The cheese was nice and melty. Overall, I was quite impressed.

I love the atmosphere! All the ladies were so kind, and there was classic music in the background. I love how calm it was, especially with all the plants they have! 🌿 The food was great, especially the chorizo taco! 🌮 10/10 #foodie #calmvibes #greatservice

This might be my new mexican spot.
I originally came here because on the picture, it was showing $8.99 for 3 taco dinner, and I wanted to grab a cheap lunch.
Well, now it's actually $13.00 plus tax, and I got horchata, it almost came out $20, but it was so worth it.
It was one the most well seasoned tacos I have had, every bite was just popping with umami and flavor. Plus, they have this orange color salsa, it was spicy but punchef with really good flavor.
I got steak, pork, and chorizo, and all of them were really good. It gets packed and busy during lunch hour, a lot of pick-up orders, too. There are not many seats inside the restaurant, so be aware.
It's definitely worth a trip for my lunch break from work. Can't wait to try their burrito or tortas now.

Some of the nicest ladies working there. Food is incredible and always tasty. Service is quick you will be in and out in less than 10 minutes. I’ve been coming here a ton lately and will continue to do so.
