Place your order at the counter and have a seat. They will bring it to you.i ordered canitas and steak tacos. Carnitas was excellent. Both tacos were juicy and plenty of meat. Had guac and chips. It was fresh. I will come again to try other things on the menu. This mexican restaurant is more like baja fresh cuisine. Not heavy rice and beans based. Clean atmosphere. Spacious. Free parking in the back of paid parking on street and adjacent parking lot for $5-3hrs. ADA complaint - much appreciated

Fantastic, getting their food since they were just a truck. A little pricey but worth it. The pambazo is my favorite!

I ordered two tacos de cochinita pibil and was delighted at how tasty these were. The meat was flavorful and tender, the pickled onions on top added nice acidity, and there wasn't too much cilantro. I was pleased by how much meat they included in each taco. Both the habanero and arbol salsas were delicious, with a great kick of heat and plenty of complexity in flavor. Seating inside was cozy, comfortable, and clean; this place has a great ambiance! I hope to go back someday soon and try other menu items.

First time here and we really enjoyed it. We ordered the nopal salad, cochinita pibil, carnitas, and fish taco, and all three were delicious in their own way. We also had the well-known Mexico City–style sandwich (can’t remember the name), which was excellent. We liked the food enough to order dessert to go—the key lime pie and flan—both worth it. We’ll definitely return.

The red pozole is what really did it for me, it's hard to find good authentic Mexican food outside of California. Super flavorful, meat portion generous amount and the salsa macha for the cherry on top. 10/10! Family owned got an opportunity to meet the chef who made the pozole that tasted just like my grandmas for the holidays 🎄👵🙏🏻

It was so refreshing to find what actually feels like real Mexican food. It was damn good and the staff was great. Sandra was amazing and patient when the kids in our group took their time ordering. She made us feel welcomed and we'll definitely be back.
