We looked for the best taqueria review in the Allentown area and the result was good in terms of service and flavor, the option to eat in the establishment is a little confusing to what we are used to, I think it is a store/market in the front and in the back there is tables to eat if you order right there.I think it is better to take orders and choose your dishes in the comfort of your home or a larger place. That time we were alone, but I imagine that if it had been a time when the tables were full, the meeting would have felt very tight. for diners.

This is the best place for street tacos and tamales. I used to live in Allentown and ate here several times a week. I recently came back for a visit and ate here 3 days in a row. Everything is very fresh and tastes amazing!

Hidden gem. Don't be afraid to go in. It's a bit non conventional but everyone is nice and the food is excellent! 2023 update - still great!

Absolutely delicious tacos! A must-try next time you're in Allentown.Tamales have also become a favorite.If you dine in, you'll enjoy the lively corner market vibe, cheerful Mexican music playing, and perhaps a soccer match on TV. Most of all, you'll enjoy your interactions with the family that's cooking and serving your food.
