“This is my favorite taco place in houston. I discovered this place in 2022 and have been a loyal customer since than and I moved out of Texas 2 years ago.Everytime I come back I make sure I stop and get these tacos specifically. If I’m not going here, I don’t want any tacos. I always get al pastor tacos which is delicious everytime. The staff has also been around for a while and they’re always really sweet and they move really fast. This place is so underrated which is good for me because I love this place.They are CASH ONLY so make sure to have cash on hand and they deserve all tips they work really hard.“

“I love the food at this restaurant. I used to come a lot because I love the menudo and their breakfasts, but I moved and couldn't come anymore. Today I was able to stop by and have my usual menudo, and it's amazing how delicious it still is. They have the best menudo here, and although I've noticed the prices have gone up, it's really worth it. I love the atmosphere and the friendly, welcoming service. My server, Patty, was very attentive and kind. I hope to come back soon. Highly recommended.“

“Nice and clean establishment. I don’t have any complaints.
We were greeted by a nice lady and waited by a young man ) Carlos) was very efficient and knowledgeable about the dishes. The young waiter brought us a spicier salsa ( Molcajete) which was not hot to me but maybe to others. I did appreciate the delightful flavor.

I had the Los tacos de Birria ( Goat meat) on handmade tortillas(up charge). The tacos come in an order of three. They are filling and very rich in flavor. I had a blast eating my meal. Also, The Chilaquiles are pretty fire! I recommend everything on the menu.“
