★★★★☆ 4.0 Food Dude · Mar 2025

We have been there twice. Both times have been amazing. The food is five stars for sure. The smoked nachos are some of my favorite nachos. I love the smokey sauce they put on them. The Bird taco is the buffalo chicken and is my favorite. Although the staff are super friendly and helpful, I Had to give the three star rating for service because they asked for a tip before we even paid and got the food. Not cool to guilt people for a tip while the cashier is staring at you waiting for you to decide to swipe your card. I'll definitely be back for the amazing food.

Oh my taco! Heard mixed reviews so decided to find out which ones were right and I was absolutely happy I came in. The tacos are unique in options, packed with flavors and extremely filling! I'd highly recommend the chicken or pork tacos! Who knew pickled carrots on tacos taste so amazing!

First time experiencing the Smoking Taco. We ordered the Smokehouse Tots, the Smoking Pastor taco, and the Bird taco. The service was amazing! The cashier was so friendly and helped us decide what to order since we have never been here before. Food came out quick, hot, and fresh. The tacos were both loaded heavy with meat and were both very delicious. The Bird could have used a bit more of that yummy sauce but it was very flavorful. The Smoking Pastor was very delicious, I just wish I could have finished it. I got full after eating the first taco. My wife had the Smokehouse Tots and that tasted amazing. My wife loved it and wish she could have finished it as well. The place looked very clean. I seen one table not cleaned off but there were only three people working at the time we went in.

This was a cool find! Delicious tacos with lots of different flavor profiles! We ordered one of every variety! The tacos were all excellent with just a handful of clear winners. The Banh Fire, the Bang Bang, and the Hot Chick were the favs. The churro fries were also legit!

This is my favorite taco place in Ogden. I love the smoked meat they use & the diversity on their menu. The wait always feels longer than it should but the tacos never disappoint. We’ve tried 6 or 7 different ones & the flavors pop in all of them. The churro fries are good too.
