“I love the food here. It's fresh & delicious. Their al pastor is chefs kiss 🤌 the steak tacos are up there too. The green salsa is fire in every sense 🔥 👌 The staff is nice & the atmosphere is chill. The decorations and tables have been a great addition to this restaurant.”

“While not the most exceptional in Chicago, the tacos are definitely above average.”

“Our film crew stopped in after a heavy production day. We’re glad we did, the food was delicious and the service was great too!”

“Seems like a great community spot! They were unfortunately out of chicken and chilies so I didn’t get to try those so u just had a steak taco and it was good. The flour tortilla was soft and tasty and the meat had good flavor and was well cooked. I got an extra of sour cream too and it helped elevate the flavor. They have tons of bottled drinks like Jumex, Gatorade, and Coke. They have horchata too. Plenty of space for dining and was easy to find free parking nearby.”
