Best tacos in San Antonio. This is like a gourmet taco place. Affordable. Drinks as well. Great customer service. We live here, and we're here all the time. It's one of our go to spots in town.

August 2025

We thought the tacos were a fair value, maybe even underpriced, but $9 for a beer…?

Food was good, service was spot on, and nice vibe on the patio.

Would we go back? Probably.

July 2025

The atmosphere is great, elote was amazing, birria tacos were good but had very little meat and only come with 2. I ordered a strawberry lemonade that i saw they had by the cashier looked like freshly made juice, and when i took a quick sip and it had alcohol in it. I've been sober for 6 months and was pretty upset about it because there was no sign and they didn't ask for my ID either i won't say who because i don't want anyone getting fired but i do think...
