The tacos were $4.15 for more tortilla & onion then meat, im talking 8 SMALL cut pieces of tripe in each one, the kids nuggets were actually grilled chicken cut into pieces burnt to a crisp in the fryer, the fries were old & the pozole had 5 bones and 2 pieces of fat in the whole bowl w hominy. My son’s cheeseburger never came out. & I reminded him before he brang my taco salad out which was bearly edible. When I told him about pozole, he replied w “they’re pork ribs”. I don’t care what type of ribs they use. They had no meat on them, and they still tried to serve it to me. Overall the experience was pathetic. I cannot believe someone recommended this place to me.

I got 4 tacos - al pastor, asada, carnitas, and campechano. Insanely good, might be my new go to for tacos.

The food is amazing and so is the service. You should check your website though, it seems to be hacked or something and opens shady links when you click take out

This is a fantastic little hidden gem. There were five of us in our party and we were tended to in quick fashion and had lovely meals.

The chori pollo with the corn tortillas came out quick and was well portioned and tasted great. Also ordered two tacos and they both came with a lot of cilantro and meat which I was very happy about. We ordered takeout and they gave chips and salsa for free. While we waited they played chalino sanchez which I love. Definitely coming back for the monster margaritas

The food was absolutely awful. I didn’t think you could mess up Mexican food this badly. I was proven wrong.
