Delicious and quick to order street food. Really like the beef tongue taco and other interesting food options. Note: cash only. The food is good and cheap. Takeouts style.

Would give it a 1 star based on service but will be judging it solely on the food we ate.
We are on a road trip from Houston TX do Denver. We’re on the way back and had been craving Mexican food since we left Houston 7 days ago.
We stopped here based on the reviews and where hopefully that we were going to get some great food.
Unfortunately, the Mexican food here is average at best and it’s a little sad that the locals think this is excellent Mexican food.
It’s not bad food, but it’s not something that I would recommend if you’re wanting to eat good Mexican food.
The waters we ordered didn’t taste fresh as we were told they were and tasted like they were made from powder.
All of our tacos, the tortillas were not warm and were on the colder / room temperature side. They probably do this to avoid the tortillas from breaking when folding them over, however, they still break because they’re cold.
Outside of the food the service was very poor. Maybe the workers were having an off night but we were given an attitude when ordering and getting our food. They weren’t rude or nasty just sort of seemed bothered by being at work.
The only upside from our food was the salsas and the refried beans. The refried beans were so good we decided to order a bean burrito.
The establishment itself is okay it’s definitely not a fancy place but it’s clean and taken care of. It was quiet when we went on a Friday night and it seems like a spot where you could have a conversation over food if that’s what you’re after.
Unfortunately this is not a place I can recommend unless you’re in dire need of food and have nowhere else to eat.

This place is a perfect local spot for inexpensive yet delicious food. Staff is super friendly. Just make sure you bring cash.

The tacos al pastor are the best I’ve had in the US, and I’m from Mexico City. Red salsa was delicious.

One of my favorite places to eat in America! The best horchata i've ever had, I always get the 32 oz and it isn't enough. I could drink a gallon of it. and the tacos are so good! and affordable!

If you want real Mexican tacos, aquas frescas (fruit drinks), tortas (sandwiches) this is the place. It’s a hole in the wall with good food. Prices are reasonable and the sitting area has picnic tables and small tables. You order at the window and wait for your number to be called. They only take cash. Plenty of parking. I recommend the tongue tacos and the pina and horchata drinks. Tacos come with great salsas. 😋 Very casual.

They don’t know how to take an order they got everything wrong the lady that took my order was rude when I called them to remake my order they didn’t want to so if they mess up your order it’s on you 🤣 it used to be so good but now with this little old lady with the glasses working there it suscks she just fights with you for no reason other then her big on a power trip and it seems like she doesn’t want to even be there hope they shut that place down its disgusting behavior from the employee and disgusting food I got food poisoning from the tacos I ordered and couldn’t even eat the torta I got because they undercooked it
Horrible service I ordered tacos without cilantro or onion. Got both of them on my order. I’m allergic to onions and they still put ALOT all over my tacos prices are crazy just for them to get my order wrong then I had to go to the ER because they don’t know how to get an order right on top of that when I called for them to remake my food the lady fought with me and blamed me for eating them when I specifically asked for no onion or cilantro she just kept fighting with me for no reason I hate this place seems like everyone does now a days 😒
Taco's are the bomb!

First of all I had to repeat the order three times and they still got it wrong. I wanted 2- tacos pastor and one gordita pastor mais. They added a torta that I didn't order and they didn't correct the order. Tacos were real greasy and tasteless. The gordita pastor was not cooked properly and falling apart. Not a good experience. $20 and greasy fingers. Never again 😞
