Hands down the best tacos in the area, I feel like nothing else needs to be said. FYI - cash only, and not a lot of ambiance so would get as take out. Grab some tacos and guac then head to the park for a great picnic.

I am so picky when it comes to Mexican food. This place is a gem. The Al Pastor taco is so tender and flavorful, wow ???? The asada was just as good. The tacos are filled with meat on a regular size tortilla, the red sauce is ???? fire. The guacamole was alright, a bit watery but tasteful. Would recommend for a quick bite! Way to go !

If your looking for excellent charbroiled tacos, or burritos this restaurant is your place. This is a little hidden gem. This restaurant offers several different dishes and their chips and salsa is very good as. They are not stingy with the meat on the tacos or burritos. I have yet to be disappointed with my order always satisfied. I recommend a visit to this restaurant.

They used to be good but recently not very good. And, the prices of the tacos and burritos have increased to astronomical levels. 4 for a taco and burritos 14+ and they charge for each added ingredient $20 for a burrito.forget it. The food and steak meat has been changed as well not a good as it used to be. Sometimes they will oversalt the meat or burn the burrito tortilla and the food won't taste good. The tortilla chips they been giving out are from cheap in the bag tortilla chips not freshly cooked like most restaurants. Then the guacamole is price gouged to $6+ You can get a whole container of guacamole from the store for the same price and taste just as good if not better. This place isn't a clean place either to be charging ridiculous prices. I won't be visiting anytime soon. Adios. Might as well go to a steakhouse for $40-50 or find another Mexican restaurant. They charge too much for having average food.

Steak burrito was honestly one of the best I've ever had. Chips and salsa are also solid. I found the chicken in a chicken taco to be tasteless.-early 2019
Update...this place has been my fav for years. Recently the burrito size has shrunk and the chips are a whole different recipe and way worse( like out of a bag almost, but could have been a fluke). The steak still has awesome flavor and salsas supurb, but seems to be going a little down hill. Also 3.65 for a side of rice is crazy. 2022
Also it's 2022...cash only is so annoying

Love the barbacoa and the pollo burritos... and the carne asada torta! The chips are a bit too greasy, but everything else is awesome.

We had a burrito and two soft shell cilantro steak tacos. Delicious.The Pico de Gallo is amazing. The girl who took our order was very friendly. It is cash only here but there is an ATM on site. It is very clean and you can dine in or take out. We would return.

I haven’t eaten EVERY al pastor taco in the city, but I’ve had a lot, and of all the ones I’ve eaten these are the best.
Fresh, simple, delicious. The tortillas are perfection, the service is fast and friendly.
Strongly recommend.
