The guy cooking my tacos picked up some of the meat with his hands and ate it. The guy at the counter wiped his nose with the back of his hand while I paid. The guy who cooked my food went on break and ate his food and went back to work wearing the same gloves the entire time. But the tacos were really good.

Miss how this place began. Still going to support them. But the tacos are getting sloppier and soggier. Everything tastes the same because they are drenched in pineapple juice and grease. They also don’t offer plates or containers so the bag is just a pile of wet mush if you get them to go. Had to toss 2 of 5 because they were just so wet. But these are solvable issues if they bring themselves to adjust. Rooting for them.

After placing my order I saw the cook using his gloves to wipe his nose and count money it was a turn off , the other cook was cleaning up then took out meat out of the container put it on the grill and then was taping up some signes in front of counter with the same gloves .

Heads up: CDMX is not gluten/wheat allergy friendly anymore since they now serve a torta (bread) and it’s grilled on the same flattop as the tacos. If anyone has a contact allergy, this is not a safe option anymore.
(So sad because the food is delicious)

OMG they are the real Mexican tacos ?

Very disappointing, we ordered tacos of all kinds and it was really not successful. Their rating is high without any justification, in all the other Mexican restaurants we ate at, the food was of a much higher standard.

Decent tacos. Glad they had a vegan chorizo option. Cucumber agua fresco was refreshing and not overly sweet. But there was only one (not very) hot sauce option, no pickled jalapenos. Would like to be able to customize more. More veg options would be welcome. Nice outdoor seating but lots of yellow jackets buzzing about so he careful if allergic.

Food was good, but in a street taco sense. I could pay $1 and get these same tacos from any taco truck in Texas, and the same experience too. Bugs flying around my face nonstop because they have open air tables, and no fans set up whatsoever to keep the insects away. Food was good, but not good for the price, since it was $5 per street taco. On another note, if you don't like the rainbow types, there were plenty of them here. Ithaca itself is very progressive, so it's expected.
Basically, it seems to get good reviews because there's a severe lack of competition and the basic white girls of Ithaca think a menu in Spanish makes a place "authentic", and can't complain because they have no idea what to compare it to.

Love this place and its people! Great food, the tacos are stuffed full and all the salsas are delicious. Get the Agua Fresca too, you won’t be sorry.
This place is a gem. Reminds me so much of Mexico both in spirit and in flavor. These guys are awesome, very sweet. I got chicken, pork, and steak and asked the cook to give me whatever toppings he likes and he did not dissapoint. The pineapple goes so good on the tacos. I wish I lived closer by!!!
I went back for a fourth taco, the al pastor was so good.

I ordered 15 tacos for my wife and I and our 4 boys. They were so fast!!!! We had tacos in less than 5 minutes. And they were great!
Service was fast and sitting outside and eating was a great experience!
