Amazing tacos! This is such a gem 😊 Will have to try other food here, but the tacos are so flavorful that I'm sure everything else is great. And seems to me that they stay true to the authentic street taco.
The service is incredible as well - the server is so kind every single time we came in.

This place is the most authentic Mexican food I had in Greenville so far!! I came for Taco Tuesday/Thursday and had a great experience. I ordered six tacos, and every single taco was authentic, fresh, flavorful, and generously filled. They have a wide variety of meat choices. They brought out complimentary duritos to start. The service was kind, the atmosphere was relaxed. My food cost $6, but even without the special, the prices are very reasonable. In a time when even fast food costs $10+, this place is a rare gem. I truly hope they stay in business for a long time. I will be revisiting to try more!

My wife and I stumbled into this place with some good friends of ours on a Tuesday evening and discovered their $1 taco special — and wow, these tacos are next-level good. Perfectly seasoned meat, fresh toppings, and tortillas that taste homemade. I couldn’t believe the quality for the price. Ended up ordering way more than I planned (no regrets). The vibe was chill, the service was friendly, and honestly, I’m already counting down to next Tuesday. If you love tacos, do yourself a favor and go. You won’t be disappointed!

Authentic as authentic can get. I found this place on Google and with its great reviews, decided to give it a try. I should mention that. This restaurant also has a second listing or identity on Google by the name of “The Jalapeño Mexican Grill” both have the same phone numbers.
I happen to walk in on $.99. Taco Tuesday.
I tried the pastor, carnitas, asada and cuerito. Pastor was my favorite and cuerito was also delicious!
My total bill was $5.94 đŸ€”
My advice to the owner as a restaurant professional, is you are not making any money on this. If the place was completely packed and everyone was buying sides, then I’d be all in on this strategy. But there was at least eight people there when I was there. A lost Leader strategy is supposed to bring in an excessive amount of guests which then you sell other things to to make up for the profit of the lost leader. I didn’t see this happening.
Manny my Server was excellent.

You do not have to give away your food to make a profit. The food was a good enough quality that you should have higher prices than $.99! There is no way given food costs in 2025 that you can be making money on this menu on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This is my humble opinion as a restaurant executive. I would recommend a limit if you wanted to try that pricing, as in the first three are $.99.
In any case, the food was as authentic as it gets.
Until they change the strategy, you need to get here on Tuesdays or Thursdays for their $.99 tacos.

Before it was a good place, now the LLA food is not good, I don't know if it's their cook or what? But no longer, the place has changed

This is one of the best places in the upstate to get authentic dishes. 0.99c tacos friday and Saturday leaves you full and satisfied. there was not a taco that I didn't enjoy. And finally the Horchata was perfect.

The people who took care of me at this restaurant were incredible. Their food was inexpensive and wonderful. I tried it because the proximity to my workplace and the hospitality I was presented will make me come back often. Do not miss out on this place. The food was made to order and came out quickly. For my half hour lunch break I felt like I had plenty of time to pick up food and eat without feeling rushed.
