The food was not it for me. I get the fusion of flavors and what have you but the tortilla for the taco was hard, not crunchy hard, but chewy, meat was flavorless. Salsa lack authenticity. Not a traditional Mexican spot. Tacos need a good salsa, soft tortillas unless specifies otherwise. I was not a fan, but hey that just my taste! On the other service was very friendly. Stop by and see for yourself.

Hello everyone, My name is Madeley Aka Maddie. Here is what I ordered: Rice platter with carnitas with everything Mixed Tacos - 2 al pastor and 2 carnitas (4) Carnitas tacos with everything (4) 2 shrimp and cheese empanadas 2 beef and cheese empanadas Beef Flautas with everything (4) This is our 1st time here. This is a family owned business and everyone treated me very well. I waited for my food as they make it fresh on spot. When we got home we went mayham on everything lol 😂. Needless to say I forgot to take a picture of all the goodness, hunger took over. We loved the savory taste, crunchy tacos, packed filled Empanadas of shrimp and beef with cheese, delicious flautas and a rice carnitas bowl. I loved the fact that all plates came with a side of green sauce which’s was very tast

★★★★★ 5.0 Hanna Becerra · Feb 2024

We recently had the pleasure of dining here today. This restaurant brings out the food of its people with great prices. The tacos are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the flavors are truly authentic. We tried the fried pork, beef birria and chicken birria tacos and churros they were excellent. The tortillas are made fresh daily. The staff were friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a wonderful meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves authentic Mexican food.
