Paid $16.33 for 3 steak tacos. The meat was bland. Not worth it.

Literally the worst burrito ive ever had in my life. So dry. No taste. And so expensive. The tres leches wasn’t that bad. But the actual food was terrible. I would never recommend to anyone

The food has good taste but the carnita has too much fat and one or two little bones. Good portions

This place overcharges regularly. It was supposed to be $10.88 with tax and I was charged $11.98. Their portion sizes have gotten a lot smaller too. Rip off.

I needed a quick lunch, so I tried this place. I had a chorizo taco and a tinga de pollo quesadilla. The taco was awesome! The sausage was cut into tiny cubes and grilled, not soaked in oil and grease like some places. And the tinga was excellent, not dry, and had that great tangy flavor I love. Everything was fresh, and the prices were very reasonable. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll definitely go back.

Don’t pay attention to the bad reviews. It’s just people without tastebuds or people who just had a bad experience, we are humans and don’t always feel 100%!!!! Don’t judge it until you give it another try if you didn’t like it. Because I LOVED it. The tings quesadilla is definitely one of my favorites.

probably sone of the best Mexican food I’ve had in nyc . Pls don’t shit on East Harlem Mexican food bc this spot slapped . The spot is small with Bench like seating and the people running the spot were so kind and attentive . The fist and al pastor tacos were amazing . Al pastor tacos usually don’t have the right seasoning but this one was perfect . The fish taco has a good amount of fish and seasoned well . We also had the sope . Definitely coming back and glad this place is in my neighborhood .

I ordered some quesadillas, they arrived cold but they were delicious...if they told customers what special things they had like pozole and other things, it would be a great, quiet atmosphere to eat.

When you search for “best tres leches cake” on Google this is the place that comes up. My wife and I schlepped a mile to get just the cake and it’s seriously amazing.

It's sad how Mexican food is sold so overpriced and it doesn't even taste good. I ordered some golden tacos and they were literally only 4 tacos with lettuce and cheese. They didn't even come with beans. $14 dollars. For $10 dollars, in short, the price is not important, but at least you should make sure that the food tastes better and that the portions are reasonable, in my humble opinion.
The value for money of what they serve is excellent. The two dishes we tried were very good. The place is small, but you can eat comfortably. Very nice service.
Birria tacos, fresh corn chips and queso. All 3 were incredible. Food came in less than 10 minutes after ordering and the guy behind the counter was doing it all. I’ve never left a review before and I had to after this. Cant wait to go back every day I’m here.
