I’m not a big review guy but this place is one of those exceptions because of how FANTASTIC the food here is. I don’t eat out much and prefer eating healthier at home because eating out makes me feel bad BUT THIS PLACE NEVER makes me feel like poop. A+++++++

This place rules. We order here often and the tacos are phenomenal. I need to start trying some new things just to see how they are. Only thing I could really complain about is the fact that I always ask if they have lengua and they never do. I'm still giving them 5 stars though because I've never been unhappy with their food.

Went yesterday with my spouse for the first time and it was very delicious. We ordered the nachos con pollo, enchiladas, and quesadillas. All were reasonably priced and good portion sizes. The server was welcoming and attentive. Will definitely be returning.
Great authentic Mexican food. Would recommend the Al Pastor tacos or Torta!

Food is good, but man has the service went downhill. The lady at the front desk is very unpleasant. She also nickel and dimed everything. I asked for rice and beans to be separated and from my order of fajitas and they charged $1.50 to do that. There was no salsa in the bag so I asked if I could get 1 salsa. Surprise! That’s another charge. Since when does a Mexican place not provide salsa?!

I've been here a few times and this place never disappoints. Can't go wrong with the tacos. The birria are my favorite but you also can't go wrong with all pastor or any other one. I really liked the lengua but I can understand someone not wanting to try it. Chips and guacamole are a classic but they do it well. I tried the mole last time I was there and it was amazing. I am also a big fan of their Mexican coffee. It's sweet and flavorful but they don't add any creamer which I like. Mexican hot chocolate is good but I prefer the coffee. Definitely a must try spot.

With the TV on and the Mexican music playing, it was sensory overload for me! The waitress did turn off the tv when asked. She was very sweet.
They do not serve complementary chips and salsa like other places do. Waitress was very polite but knew very little English, which made my family nervous as we have food allergies and are vegetarians. However, the order was fine and the food seemed to be of good quality. I thought that $55 was a little pricey for a family of four, but I’m sure that some people could have gone cheaper.
Taste is great but just disappointed on the amount of cheese . Barely sprinkled any on ?. I would’ve expected more for the price .

Delicious tacos!!
The tacos al pastor are out of this world! Best I've had anywhere. Enchiladas and aguas frescas were pretty good too. Service is very friendly, but not all of the staff speak fluent English. If you need to order in Spanish, just ask them "quiero pedir [menu item], por favor" and you should be good to go!

Loved, loved, loved this place! If you are looking for authentic Mexican food at a good price at a spot where the owner comes to your table and explains items you are not sure about, this is the place to go. Best Mexican food I have ever had.

Came here for lunch with my dad and enjoyed an awesome authentic experience. Music was festive as well as the atmosphere! Our waitress was knowledgeable and gave us breakdown of all the options to the dishes they prepared. My dad thoroughly enjoyed his Mexican style tacos and their freshly made salsa! Along with this the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend trying this place out!
