This place is spectacular, with a great atmosphere and excellent service. We went a few days ago, and the waiter Cristhian was very kind and helpful. The food was very tasty. I would definitely come back many more times.
The Piña Colada is delicious. 🍹

So delicious

Honestly a solid place for birria tacos, for a reasonable/justifiable price. 3 tacos with the consume (soup) and i was dunking every bite into it. Nowhere else have i properly had a tasty taco, with the right amount of filling, with the right ratio of cheese, with the right amount of crunch. A lot of places end up serving you an overly cheesy or overly soggy set up but they nailed it here.

I've been coming to this place for quite a few years now, and it never disappoints me. Food is delicious. You feel like you're actually in Mexico.

this place is very yummy. i ordered cheese flautas, french fries, and a breaded chicken torta. The cheese flautas was mine and they are delicious. They confused my order and thought i wanted chicken flautas but they very nicely fixed the issue and delivered me the correct flautas. I really appreciate that. I have ordered on uber eats before and everytime it has been very delicious. Thank you so much again for fixing my order. This place deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️ ?

I have been a frequent customer of this place, the food is pretty good but today my order was incomplete and part of it was burnt. When I called to inform them, the person who helped me made me feel like I was lying. They didn't want to do anything about it. They lost a repeat customer because of their poor customer service.

I don't know what happened to this place. We order from here every weekend. We live right around the corner. Every time we order, the food is great. A nice guy came to deliver the food. Today, somehow, the delivery guy got lost (a different man), even though we live a block away and you can literally walk in 90 seconds. Last week, the food was undercooked and nearly raw. This time the food was burnt. In addition, the tortillas that always come with the order were missing. When we called to inform them that the tortillas were missing, they acted like we were lying and refused to do anything about it. This is the last time we are ordering from there!
I DON'T know what happened to this place. We order from there every weekend. We live very close. Every time we order, the food is super delicious. A very kind man brings the food. This time, I don't even know how, although we live like a block in the place, the delivery man (another man) got "lost" on the way! I can walk there in 90 seconds! Last week, the food was almost raw. This time, it was well burned. Additionally, the tortillas that always come with a wire were missing. When we called, they acted like we were lying. It's the last time we order from there!

I always get the chicken burrito and it’s usually very good but the guacamole was a disappointment, it was really REALLY bad.

My young friend Andy got to pick our restaurant this evening, and he made a great recommendation! The steak quesadilla was amazing, the tortillas were just delicious, the guacamole was fresh made and everyone enjoyed their plates!
