The food here is great, my only complaint is the breakfast tacos tortillas are store bought and not good. At lunch the tortillas and everything are amazing

Pretty good breakfast tacos! Brisket taco was my fav. Pricey, but that’s downtown for you. Cool that you can get coffee from Three Keys in the same place!

Went today to try and oh my goodness, the chicharron tacos were some of the best I’ve ever tried. With pieces of chicharron, it brought each bite with a satisfying crunch.

Very disappointed in this place. First I arrived excitedly asking about the blue dough quesadillas and they told me that after 11. I came back at 11 and they told me that they no longer sell blue dough quesadillas. I asked for a corn quesadilla and they told me that the tortilla is small and they didn't even know how to charge for it because I only wanted one quesadilla. They really don't want to sell their business, it will collapse, apart from the quesadilla, all ugly and tasteless, I couldn't even eat it. What a disappointment!!

The brisket tacos are really good, expensive but worth it. However the pork tacos are among the best I've had in all of Houston if not the best. this place is highly worth the price but wish they were open more and after 6 pm on Friday/

We went to try the carrot taco but didn’t realize they don’t start serving that until 11am. So we opted for breakfast menu. They were entirely sold out. Seriously? Finn Hall wasn’t even hopping. So okay - we go get coffee and wait an hour till 11:00. I kid you not we were the I to people in line at 10:55 and at 11:00 - guess what. “Sold out” of carrot tacos. WTH?
We tried the pork belly - it was delicious. But the tepache chicken was dry, and no flavor. Covered in cabbage and spinach. Nothing special. How is this on the top 50?

I ordered 1 brisket Taco - it cost me $7.50. My drink was $2.50. The price for the taco was an additional $2.00 bc I wanted Flour instead of corn tortillas - The cook like he wanted to apologize but the cashier had a look like I don't have to sell it to you at all. The taco was delicious but the service is poor
--- never again.

Hands down the best tacos in downtown Houston! Their tacos are so fresh. Their vegan taco is amazing too, no meat needed! The flavor is phenomenal.

Was hyped up to eat at this place and it was just a disappointment. The Tepache Chicken was dry and the tortilla tasted like it spent the whole day on the counter. The Puerco en salsa verde was good but the tortilla was just bad. A true disappointment.
