I was up late night trying to get something to eat because I am pregnant & wanted something to eat. I called in & pickup my food. When I ate it, it tasted burnt. I had forced myself to eat it because I’m pregnant & hungry. I’m not sure if they cook or owner’s clean the grill but I am sick to my stomach I been throwing up nonstop & I was denied a refund & a remake. I will be back up there to speak with the police & owner.

Asada is delicious here. We had a burrito and a taco dinner... Salsa verde was woow, so good. Chips were good as well. Horchata was ok I've had way better but who cares what counts is the food 🔥🔥🔥💯 gracias. 9.7⭐

The carne asada burrito is so good 🤤 and they're giant! However, the horchata drink was extremely sweet to me. Too much sugar 😔

New kid on the block. Stopped in for a late snack. Had the steak torta and Al pastor taco. The meat has a very smoky flavor because they cook over real wood. While I enjoyed the AL pastor, it was very different because of the woody smoke flavor, instead of the usual sweet taste. The steak was cooked well and tasted very good. I definitely recommend this place, and it's perfect for late night eats. Hello, I recently came into the new location on 79th street, which is a much smaller location then the original. The place looks nice, but could use a touch up, especially the dining tables which are very loose and uncomfortable to sit in as wooden benches. I ordered the 3-taco dinner, with rice, which has really gotten expensive $$$$. I had the steak, chicken, and Al pastor. The tacos were good, but did notice the pastor was dry, it seems the meat is getting pre-cooked to early and becoming dried out throughout the day. The homemade salsa was still good, but service was slow, and I found the music to loud. This location is open 24hrs., and has street parking.

Not really that impressed. I ordered nachos and paid an extra $5 for double meat (steak and shrimp). My order had a decent amount of shrimp but only 3 little pieces of steak in it. I also ordered a small order of Spanish rice and I received the rice in a container that should only be used for salsa.

Horrible experience. They served me burnt steak tacos at 1 am . Steak was hard and overcooked . It tasted like literal charcoal. Promised me a refund then said oh no bring the tacos back right now and I’ll remake them mins you I work in a few hours. Horrible customer service they were arguing with customers upon arrival and even stole a Uber Eats order that didn’t belong to them which ultimately got them cheese out yet again tonight . While on the phone they hung up on me and when I called back he said I didn’t have up on you nothing ma’am . I wouldn’t recommend . The steak was so burnt tasting I had to add sour cream from home. The shell was hard and stale. Mind you my order was almost $30 for 6 tacos only . Worst experience!
