Excellent food! Service was great and the place was very clean! Would definitely go again. Parking lot was scary! Crack heads and dealers.

Delicious tacos for $3 each! Yes, the prices are on the menu. Yes, the server spoke enough English to take my order. Although, if I'm ordering Mexican food, it wouldn't hurt to know a little Spanish, right? Sesame Street can help you out with that one. Or you could just point to the pictures on the menu. The descriptions are in English. Anyway, the food was really good. I like the generous portion of onions and jalapeno. I didn't care for the sauces, but that was just personal preference. I will be back!

The menu has no prices. Why would you print a menu with no prices? There are people on a budget, that would like to know how their food is before ordering.

Regular pork taco was the best. 5 stars for the pork taco. 2 stars for the wrong item (El Ray something) that had steak and shrimp on it. 5 stars for the sauces they offered for the tacos. Overall I would go back.

The woman I spoke to on the phone barely spoke English and it was very difficult to place a to-go order.I waited a long time for my food (for the place to be empty as can be) and my food was COLD. To top things off, they charged me THIRTYFIVE dollars no tip included for 2 burritos chips and salsa (pictured)They robbed me for the service, food, and customer service. Not the way to run your business. Won't be back.Can't even go back and complain because I can't imagine anyone there speaks good enough English or even cares.

The restaurant is under new management and with that went out all the goodies that made this restaurant worth going to. Such as the sauce bar and their unique taste on their meats.This restaurant is now a tough sell considering that the food that was previously very tasty is now flavorless.The only thing that the red and green sauce have going for them is that they look the right color. Otherwise they are pretty flat, dull tasting and disappointing.I won’t be returning.

I agree with most of the other reviews that the food was very tasty and flavorful. But the value is terrible. They also don't offer tap water - only bottled water or bottled drinks which they charge $3 for. I ordered 2 small tacos and a spite. By the time you tip, my lunch bill was $12+ and I was still hungry when I left. Won't be back.

This place a pleasant surprise. Very small and casual. Food was very tasty. Chicken nachos we delightful. Drinks are very basic, beer, sodas etc in cooler by register. So if you need fancy this is not it. Not the norm Mexican place with chips and salsa. Looked like most of the business was carry out but could eat in too.
