Clean restaurant with quick service. The steak in the burrito had a little bristle in it, but was very good beyond that. The tacos looked average. Small restaurant with about 6-8 small tables.

I happened to be in the area and craving Tacos. I stopped in even though I had questioned myself about since the parking lot was empty. Went inside, of course no customers were dinning in. I figured what the heck.

I was greeted and told I may sit anywhere I choose, sonic did. I was in the mood for Birria Tacos. So that is exactly what I ordered.

The order came out fairly quick. The Tacos and consome were hot. I dug into the tacos 🌮 with a dip in the consome. It's was mouth watering. So delicious. The tacos 🌮 had the perfect amount of meat, cheese cilantro and onion.

The meal was so delicious, I would highly recommend it. I'm not local but I will definitely return if backnin this area

Small eatery with delicious Mexican food. No frills on the atmosphere but the food was solid! The asada and al pastor tacos were great. Guacamole was freshly made and the chicken quesadilla was excellent!

Oh my word! A hidden gem! It's a tiny cafe, everything is authentic. The birria y queso tacos are to die for... Stuffed with lean, spicy beef and just enough cheese to hold them together. The birria broth is worth drinking from the bowl. My husband had the homemade menudo... It has to have been almost a quart of soup! And we were treated like honored guests. Don't miss this gem!

Visited this spot last night while I was in Sanford and it did not disappoint. Partner got ACP. I had Taquitos and a tamarind Jaritos. The gentleman that served us was warm and welcoming. 10/10 food and atmosphere with a great selection of beverages. Thanks for the great experience.
