Food was pretty decent, the carnitas are very good. The tripa taco was a little undercooked. The place needed a little more cleaning. Customer service was good other than that everything was good.

Holy freaking awesome tortillas! And their tacos are fantastic. When I go to a taqueria for the first time I order chicken and steak tacos, because if you can't handle the basics, I'm not going for the rest. Boy did they nail it! The chicken was tender, juicy and full of flavor! The steak was tender and had a fantastic char/sear on it. For sure going back for tortillas and a heck of a lot more tacos!

3-30-25 Yes, yes, yes! We love this place! They have lots of Mexican options from chicharron to the staple taqueria mainstays. This was hopping for lunch on the date above. We all got al pastor tacos. Cut up seasoned pork with pineapple throughout, topped with onions and cilantro. Oh, but the star for us is their corn tortillas. Thick and fried nicely. We also loved how their tacos are double wrapped with said tortillas. Tacos are super filling! You are given lime slices and green and red salsa. Red is hot. Both are excellent. There are several, perhaps the most exhaustive I have seen anywhere, agua fresca flavors to choose from. Their horchata is a perfect balance of cinnamon and sweet and an excellent version. Good stuff. We got a pound of chicharron to go. Like fried pig skin? You will love this version! Fried but not overly salted. Our service was fantastic and employees knew English well. Nice people. To note the authenticity, we were the only folks in there looking like we do. We tend to look for places like this, and we nailed it! We will return.
