I really like this taco joint and would have loved to give it five stars. However, it was on the expensive side, and there was only one person working as the cashier, bartender, and cook when we were there. That said, the burrito, taco, and cocktails were all delicious. It’s great to grab a table on the patio on a nice day and enjoy the meal. Would have liked chips and salsa, but not for $12.

These tacos are always hit good! A bonus is that their tacos are served in corn tortillas which is gluten free! Staff are always friendly and will explain everything on the menu. Only downside is that the outdoor seating (while nice) can get loud as you are next to the road.
Vegetarian options: I believe there were vegetarian specific options, as well it would be easy to sub anything on the tacos or remove as needed.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options
Parking: There is paid st parking and a paid lot around the block (short walk) it can be difficult to find parking especially around the times they are open.

The food is okay, nothing special about it. Way too expensive for what it is. On top of that, one of the employee is snarky.

Great atmosphere in the summer. Lovely patio on the side. The iced coffee is delightful. The tacos are impressively large and tasty.
We ordered the guacamole and chips and a plate of 2 tacos each, and it was a delicious and filling meal. It was also served relatively fast, in case you're trying to catch a play or beat traffic.
Excellent service and delicious food.
Dietary restrictions: I have a few dietary restrictions. They took them seriously, asked questions for clarification, and made me feel confident ordering from their menu.

I know this place is known for tacos, but I will ride or die for these burritos. Tasty, crispy, and when you pair it with the jalapeño cream?? Insane. (You should get the jalapeño cream.)
Speaking of, the sikil p'ak? I don't care if you've never heard of it before, I don't care if it sounds weird to you - order it. I don't know how I'll continue with every other salsa/dip while I know this exists and I could be shoving it into my maw.
The chips for dipping? Perfectly crunchy. The staff? Frikkin rockstars, and so nice.
If you want a good burrito here in Stratford, you want one from el Cactus Taco Shop.
