Really enjoyed having a late lunch here. The chips were very light and fresh, and staff was very accommodating. Would recommend.
Walking in to the place..the savory smell of my Mom's kitchen! The spices are just right in all of the entrees. Staff are clean, respectful and caring. Suggestion to take the salsas to the next level and Mexi Can would be perfection!
Good food super clean restaurant even in the back kitchen... im a survive provider of a specific industry and service alot of Mexican restaurants I wouldn't eat at but his place and the owner are amazing he mad eme tacos and chips one day while I was servicing his store and I will eat there any time of day. Good job guys at being one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to in a long time
My husband and I absolutely love ❤️ this place. We visit at least twice a week (sometimes more if we’re feeling up to it). We only live 10min away so no big deal for us. I always always always get the fish tacos on soft flour shell. These tacos are the best tacos I’ve ever tasted from anywhere and I get brag enough about them. My husband always gets the beef burrito. The flavor of the burrito overall is really good and I would give it a 10. I personally just think it’s the beef is a bit dry. But hey, that’s what sauce is for and he doesn’t think so and he’s eating it so that’s all that matters. I would still choose the burrito from here over any other Mexican facility. . I got a picture of my fish tacos (well I’ve already bitten into one of them) but o couldn’t get a pic of the burrito my husband had. Definitely 10/10 recommended. Never long wait ones and food is always very fresh and delicioso ?!!
I come here frequently, and this last experience pushed me over the edge to give this place a rare 5 star review! Typical tex mex for the area with a few unique options but is FAR better in quality and price than many of the restaurants in the area. I always look forward to coming here after a shift to cool off and enjoy consistently delicious Mexican food and quiet ambience ?? Wonderful in every department!
Got the taco combo, half beef, half chicken. Shells- standard crispy yellow corn you can buy at DillonsLettuce- white with a splash of greenCheese- just enough to know I got someMeat- beef was basic seasoned & dry. Chicken was about a 5/10Sauce- got mild and medium…. Both were mild and not much flavorSummary- it’s a nice hole in the wall fast food to compete against TB. It’s cleaner, with a better menu for options…. But same quality.
Great place to eat!We really like that it doesn't have the typical local restaurant vibe.You know the 'hole in the wall, slightly dark, shifty worker' vibe.This was our first visit and we enjoyed it very much. The menu was a lot to take in, so many options and everything was described. We opted for some specials they were advertising. The puffy taco combo and the fish taco combo were great. We also took advantage of the $5 quesadilla Monday deal for the kids, a full sized burrito tortilla cut into wedges was fantastic for them, even had some leftovers. Wish I had taken pictures of the food, because it looked great! Next time!
It was pretty good and reasonably priced. They have daily specials and the drive thru is open until 2AM. Their Verde sauce was tasty and it wasn't super greasy.
1 Pepsi products ?❤ 2 Puffy Tacos are awesome ? 3 unique 4 Quiet Atmosphere 5 interested in trying more stuff on their menu?? 6 Clean Would definitely go back!
My brother and I came here for lunch. Neither of us had been here previously so we took our time looking over the menu and asking questions of the employee at the counter. He was very nice and even suggested a couple menu items that we should try. I ordered their puffy tacos which could be ordered two for $7. I chose one beef and one with carnitas. I liked the consistency of the taco shell and also that it held together without losing the stuffing. Both meats were good, but the tacos needed some additional seasoning or spices. Fortunately, they have a salsa bar with several choices. My brothers jumbo tostada meal looked good, but was a challenge to eat in the foam containers that the food was served in.

The puffy tacos are my family’s favorite tacos by far. The employees were super nice and helpful, made us feel very welcome. Manuel was amazing and made sure we were taken care of. Will definitely come back again.
I ordered a #1, as pictured here. The menu, as you can read, lists "choice of sides." The sides, also pictured here, lists guacamole. So I order, as my sides - rice, and guacamole. The rest of my party orders. We sit and after a few minutes the cashier comes to our table and asks, "did you want a six ounce?""Of what?" I have to ask. Guacamole. "Instead of?" I ask. He's phrased it as if I am replacing some other amount of it.After I ask a few more times, he says, "Instead of a 2 ounce.""I guess if it's all the same, six ounces," I say."That'll be another dollar fifty," he says."Then the two ounce is fine," I say. The cashier returns to the kitchen.So I check my receipt, now wondering why there was any confusion. The cashier had already rung me up for a six a ounce cup of guacamole. When he brings the order, there's a two ounce cup, and a six ounce cup.When I ask about the confusion, he says that the number one only comes with one, singular side, and then that the guacamole wasn't a side.So. To recap. The sign lists sides (with an S - plural). Guacamole is listed as a side. He rung me up for an additional side because of that. But then asked what size my side cup of it would be, and asked if I wanted to upsize it after I ordered.What?Food was okay. But. What?(Also, the kitchen disregarded my "no lettuce" and my partner's "not tomato.")
They had big portions but I did not like the taste. Its more like a Taco Bell type food. It was fresh and fast but didnt taste good. Employees were very nice! which is why I'm giving them a 3. But I probably won't go back, not my cup of tea.
My husband and I have ate here a few times,and the food is always great and barely a wait time to get our food. The owner is super nice! We've always been greeted with a warm welcome,we will definitely be back! ?
Everything is yummy but I especially love the fish tacos ?
