Delicious street tacos. The girl who takes the orders is rude though & very impatient. She acts like answering questions about the menu is an inconvenience. They also won't give you extra sauce even when offering to pay for it. Very frustrating.

the best fr .
These bad comments are dumb. Maybe some of y’all don’t know how to order ? I eat here very often and I’ve never had any issues with food , drinks , or the workers . Y’all gotta stop acting like some wannabe Gordon Ramsay’s 😂.

50$ on 5 of the smallest tacos I've ever seen, a bean burrito, cheese quesadilla with rice and beans, jamaica and coke. The lingua tacos still had taste buds visible and did not taste like someone who knows how to cook made them, the quesadilla cheese was not even close to being completely melted, and the jamaica was not real. Upon asking what was in it, the server turns around and ignores the question. Will not be coming back. The tacos didn't even come with rice and beans, just 1 plate of 3 and another of 2, completely blank expressions. I would never operate a business that sends out plates like these.
Edit: reading the other reviews I was clearly not the only one thinking this. And the owner only responds to the 5/5 obvious lies. Typical "sweep it under the rug" attitude

A small restaurant but the food was amazing, cashier however wasn’t. She could be a little more friendly. Maybe she was having a bad morning. But all in all the food was delicious.

I go here every time I crave real Mexican food. I get the Caldo De Res soup and it is absolutely the best soup I've had in a long time!
It is full to the brim with fresh corn, carrots, cabbage, zucchini and a large piece of beef.
Comes with a plate of cilantro, limes and onions, a bowl of rice and 4 small tortilla shells. You can choose corn or flour.
It's so much food that you can't even eat it all!
It's a little spendy, but worth it! I'll definitely go back again. Edit: I usually enjoy going here for the food, but tonight; July 9, 2023 was different. The waitress was not very friendly or inviting. It took quite sometime to get my soup. She offered me plastic silverware to cut up the meat and she turned the music on loud while I was trying to watch TV on my phone. I thought she was very rude. Her customer service skills are severely lacking.

Buy a rez broth
the meat was very delicious
Seasonings and vegetables well
But the broth did taste a bit rare.
Let's see what they can explain about the flavor of the broth ?

Portioning is ridiculous. I ordered a torta and, if I hadn't of known that I ordered it, I would've thought it was just a plain piece of bread. Luckily, for this establishment, food had good taste & the atmosphere matched my expectations for a hole in the wall. Oh! Let's not forget Bernice. Her customer service was impeccable!!! NOTTTT! She does NOT belong in customer service. Maybe she'd be happier in a warehouse? Anyhow, just my two cents.
