Place where you order your food one way and they give it to you how you want ??

Everything was delicious! I had three tacos. The first was Pastor and the best I’ve had in the city. Sometimes when you ask for Pastor at restaurants they don’t have pineapples, but they did and they were big juicy chunks. The Asada taco was tender and robust. The last taco was the Birria and it was phenomenal! The consume was great too, wasn’t too salty and booming with flavor.The service was top tier and they have very attentive staff. Once you’re seated they give you water with lemon, chips, salsa, ADD QUESO! We got full off the chips and dip .The atmosphere is adorable, and has a beachy vibe. Quaint and a hidden gem. 5 out of 5 for me.

Listen. I don't write reviews, but the food was too good not to!Very much just a hole in the wall, traditional Mexican restaurant. Found it cause we were on the west side and it had almost perfect 5 ? with a couple hundred reviews.Parking is minimal at best, but literally my only gripe.Upon entering, we were immediately noticed and allowed to sit wherever. Before even getting a word in, we were given waters, chips, salsa, queso, and 3 housemade sauces ?‍?The menu is fairly extensive, along with an entire drink selection as well, so I'm sure there's something for everyone. Maybe 7 minutes until we received all out actual food. Between my partner and I, we got 2 chicken tacos, 2 steak tacos, 1 chicken quesadilla, and arroz con Pollo o asada. Everything was absolutely delicious! Flavor-filled, hot, juicy, and savory as hell! Something about the quesadilla stood out as easily one of the most flavorful basic quesadillas I've ever had. When I asked our waitress what they did to it, she admitted it's a house-secret butter blend for frying the tortillas ?Overall, if you're craving Mexican food, do not miss on this place! It's easily gonna be our go-to Mexican place on the west side from now on!For pricing, we spent 42$ before tax and tip with the above. The tacos for reference were $3.50 a piece (I feel like based on a staple item's price, you can always kinda gauge how much other stuff will be; worth it though)

Small little place. Limited seating but good food. The wait staff was very attentive and the portrait sizes were good for what you paid for.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp on the back but you better be strong to get up it as it's pretty broken up but it's there at least.
