This is one of our go to spots. Just keep in mind the parking lot is pretty small and it is CASH ONLY. I love that they offer burrito bowls for low carb options and that they have calls de rez. They usually pretty fast considering the place is always super busy! There is usually plenty of seating but can get packed.

This is the BEST taco. Big as a baby burritos ! Omg there was a pineapple tamale "special "that blew me away ! Carnitas is my favorite but pastor is also extremely correct. Wife says the Ceviche is nice . The price is nice . The strip mall location looks "a bit rough with tight parking" once inside ... The lady's who run the counter are fully Bilingual don't be intimidated from getting a proper Mexican Meal

Great food. Great restaurant!! For good Mexican food please visit this spot. CASH ONLY. Self-serving restaurant with lots of seating! The cashier was nice & made sure to put extra chips in the bag for us! Now for the food: Tacos de papa 10/10: great tasting & wasn't too lumpy or dry, the condiments were great on top & the salsa on the side is the best Wet burrito 10/10: HUGE burrito they even have an option for a 6foot burrito!! Totally worth the money & great for leftovers! I'm telling you, if there's an office party & you cater from this place, everyone would love you! Great authentic tasting Mexican food

Such great "street tacos" & So much more!Our favorite taco joint in the area (there are many others,not as good)They have great burritos and chimichangas ---pastor or Asada are our favorite meat choices ! The house salsa on the pastor is so smoky & unique.I really like the ceviche tostadas ! Always fresh and nicely chilled ! You get a heaping pile on a delicious thick corn tostada with chips ! Also their BIRRIA is Rico & available every day . Love their pina & horchata too !
