“This place is really really good! Hole in the wall and easy to miss in the plaza but glad I stopped in. The staff is super nice and attentive. The food hit close to home and is very well portioned and authentic. Tortillas are home made and taste of it all was super good. Aguas frescas were nice and refreshing and the service was pretty quick. Definitely worth a shot and worth supporting a local small business.“

“I ordered online for pick up. I didn't realize it was a food truck until I arrived. Still was very easy to find! Carne Asada Pizza was AMAZING! It came covered with onions( both grilled and raw), avocado, and cilantro with several limes and both green and red sauce on the side. Definitely coming back! So glad I found them through a post on Tik Tok 😅❤️“

“Awesome service!! It was 1030 pm … we got the grande burrito which is actually enough to feed three people and we got guacamole which was excellent and I got the chicken tortilla soup. Fabulous.!!! of course it’s a bit too dark in the restaurant for my liking, but we just use our flashlights and everything was great.!!! Randon was the most excellent waiter !!! he made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed and he checked on us multiple times I can’t say enough great things about our experience here -It was our 1st time here-we are from out of town!!! thank-you !!! By the way the patio is under construction but looks like it’s gonna be very nice!!“

Way better than any other fast food taco joint. Get the Chilli burger(taco burger) and make sure to get extra sauce. Also great nachos if you like upgraded ball park nachos.“
