Tried it again after a year and nothing has changed. I did however notice the owner replies on Google reviews! Be warned, if you are not satisfied, you might be called a hater.

Don't even bother. In case the name isn't a dead giveaway, this place is obviously a drug front. That's the only reasonable excuse I can think of for the utter lack of service and absolutely dismal food quality.

The carne asada combo plate I had was really good! I hope to try the birria tacos and elotes preparados the next time I go. The inside of the restaurant is so beautiful! The hot sauce could be better though.

I had the birria nachos and a horchata. The horchata instantly reminded me of the thick horchata I had in Mexico City. The birria nachos were excellent and much better than the nachos at Sonoran Delights down the street. We live in the area and are excited that they're open from 12-12. The reason I gave them 5 stars is because the staff was personable and the food came out quick. I definitely want to come back again to try their elote.

We were drawn in by the elote, and ended up trying so much more and have no regrets! This place has so many varieties of food and meals! The carne asada was so tasty and I loved the grilled/char flavor it had. The chips and salsa were so fresh and flavorful, the quesadilla oozing with delicious cheese, .99 cent bean burritos and fries did not disappoint! The strawberries and cream drink was served with a big amount of ice cream in the side, the ceviche tostada was delicious and fresh and of course the taki elote was delicious! We can't wait to go back and try some new items. I feel like this place is serving awesome and different items like you would see in LA or a large city. Everything there is made so nicely and so "instagrammable" so have your camera ready!

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS! They hire young people willing to learn and work. Train them and then tell them that they are no longer needed after they've used them for a couple of weeks for long hours. Then when the employee goes for their money owed, the owner says that they don't get paid for training. I know two people that this has happened to.

This place is 2 min from work and I've desperately wanted to support it and make it my new go to lunch spot but they're food is just poorly made. They should definitely stick to their Raspados! I bought a bean burro hoping it's just as good as the neighboring Mexican food spot but it was the worse burro I've ever had. Let's just say it was as big as my hand, stuffed with hard packaged cheese with probably a tablespoon of beans, which were DEFINITELY Canned Rosarita Beans guys! Literally exact exact taste ! I'm sad I wanted this to be good cuz it's in my hood! Pretty bad

Eat here if you want to eat expensive garbage. Total crap! Beware! Other bad reviews are being generous. This place is one of the worst places in Tucson.

I have been wanting to try this place for a long time . Well finally I had some time and with the Oasis Raspado place apparently not opening anytime soon, I figured I would check it out . The first thing I ordered was a strawberry raspado, looking forward to fresh fruit , ice cream . Looks like it was made with frozen strawberries in super sweet syrup. Not the best . I bought a Elote which looked delish, but corn was not very good . It was like mush. The pico de Gallo was pretty good but there were some sketchy looking veg/fruit in there. I threw a few out but overall flavor was good . I will Probably give another try at some point . Hate giving first time bad reviews but, it was overall disappointing. Prices weren't great and it looked a little confusing when getting orders out .
Been wanting to support this place since I know they opened right when Covid hit and I wouldn't usually write a bad review but I just paid $44 for this: - Quesadillas with bad tortillas and some type of non-Mexican cheese. No salsa - Elote cocktail with 3/4 cup of extra salty cheese, tons of scary yellow butter and 1/4 cup of raw corn which is inedible due to the salt content (not to mention rawness) -old cucumber in the pico de Gallo fruit cup with a little bug friend in it -Orchata made from syrup Waited 15 minutes for "drive thru" where the employee had her mask under her nose. I wish I wasn't so pregnant and tired so I could return this and get my money back.

Waited 30 minutes in the drive thru . Finally got off car and knocked on drive thru window. A boy came to the window. I asked if they where ever going to take my order and he said drive thru was closed. There was a whole line of cars behind me!!!! It was 830 pm!!! He was obviously lying. Very unprofessional!!!!

Horrible place of service. The girls that work there are very rude and snobby. I've been a couple times ( I live in the area) and no time has been different. Each time all different employees. The aguas are not the good to wait 30 mins in line. I waited from 3:05 till 3:30. With ONE SINGLE CAR IN FRONT OF ME just to be spoke rude to. Didn't even purchase anything because she caught me so offguard.

Honestly, I'm incredibly disappointed. I was excited to try this place, but it was a complete let down. We didn't even get a large portion of our food. We let them know and they gave us some of what they forgot, no apologies. We got home and noticed we were missing even more food. The worst part is, the food we got was so awful it had to be thrown away. The caramelo is made with nacho cheese. The chicharrones taco was inedible. We originally thought this place was a bit overpriced, but now we know for sure the price is not worth the low quality crap they serve. DO NOT EAT HERE

Ordered from grub hub. I got a cop of ceviche and a tosti-ceviche. They decided to cancel the tosti-ceviche because they thought I accidentally ordered both. I paid for both, I ordered both. So why did they cancel one of my orders? Then when I called to complain the poor young kid that answered offered to bring me my order himself but the woman in the background kept telling him no. She got on the phone and tried to justify why they cancelled my order on their own. But in the end, the ceviche was bland, had to add more flavor to it and the sonoran dog didn't even have a chili guerrito so I had to make my own too to go with it!!! Oh and on top of that one my kids didn't get their dinner cause they thought I was d*** and ordered two types of ceviche. NO ITS CALLED ORDERING FOR YOUR FAMILY!!!
