I stopped in 3-2-23 around 4 or 5 pm The BEST Mexican food I’ve ever had! Stopped in on a whim on my 24 hour shift…. And WOW! I’m so glad I did! The salsa is spicy and homemade. My taco shells were homemade and my food came with a lime. The rice didn’t have the typical every Mexican restaurant EVER taste, it was unique. The tacos were just SO GOOD. I always get chorizo and it wasn’t dripping in grease like a lot of places. The pineapple water was so good too! Yum!!!! The girl that took my order was so nice and answered all my questions too!

“We loved the tacos.”
We loved the tacos! The highlights were all of the house made salsas. We had four kinds of fresh salsa. They make their own tortillas. The birria wrapped in house made tortillas with cilantro and onion that I dipped in consome was wonderful. Our server was also very friendly. Some buskers came in and played Mexican music on their guitars. They were really good! It felt like being in Mexico.

“I had goat soup and the homemade tortillas were fantastic.”
I had goat soup and the homemade tortillas were fantastic. My friend had the taco special that he usually gets; they make big tacos and load up the filling in large servings.

“Birria was very good.”
Birria was very good. There were bones in thr broth and i almost choked twice. Got a tiny portion of fries for over 5$. The online menu does not match inside menu prices, which doesn't match menu price, and receipt price where different from all the above. Servers seemed bothered, not attentive.. would have gave 1 star but the home made tortillas were great!

The service was horrible, we ordered online and got to the restaurant and they said our order wasn’t placed good thing we had the proof of purchase, the prices don’t match food quality payed $61.00 for six tacos and two horchatas the tortillas were hard and everything was cold which mind you we don’t live far from the restaurant. If I could rate this restaurant a zero star I would.

Tacos are super small with hardly any meat, this place use to be great but prices went up and portions are small, would not recommend for the price. There's a better spot down the block called don cucos for way bigger portions half the price

The food is not fresh at all I ordered a burrito it was nasty and sloppy never ordering here again and the tacos they don’t even put enough onion and cilantro sometimes they don’t even aim at the taco
