Went here Saturday night and got quesa birria and 7 other tacos. I *love* Mexican food, particularly tacos.The chicharron tacos were pretty good, not great but satisfying enough.The birria was only decent, the meat was chewy.The pollo taco was mediocre, a little flavor but the meat was dry.The rest of the tacos (cabeza, asada, buche) were flavorless *and* dry.All around disappointing because I'd heard some good things from friends so decided to overlook the reviews that talked about blandness.Don't make the same mistake I did. Next time I want late night tacos, I'd eat Taco Bell over these. At least I wouldn't be spending over $30.

Food taste good, unfortunately they put every plate in the microwave before sending it out the window. Why.?? It just seems like they have it pre cooked and then they make the tacos and heat it up in the microwave. Never will go back. That’s a disgrace to serving food to

In a town with a good selection of taco trucks, this one takes the cake.

The tongue tacos were BLAND and FLAVORLESS!! Worst tacos ever. I don’t think they put any seasoning whatsoever in them. Store bought tortillas that were probably microwaved warm. No salsa given for tacos. Quesabirrias were slightly better but barely. Would not waste my money here again. Honestly wish I could get the bland nasty flavor out of my mouth ?

$10 for a veggie burrito (with no beans or any other protein!) is pretty steep, and it automatically came with cheese and sour cream despite them not being mentioned in the description, which is unfortunate since many people are vegan and/or lactose intolerant.I do appreciate that they were willing to remake it for me without the cheese/sour cream, but it was a shame I had to waste food (they had me give the burrito back to be tossed in the trash instead of letting me give it to my friends), and despite the large portion size I was quite unsatisfied with my burrito, especially for the price.It could’ve been greatly improved by adding beans or vegan meat, and I wish they had mentioned that it comes with cheese and sour cream. The service was fast and friendly though! :)
