    They ran out of carnitas. They only had enough for 2 tacos and the actual meat itself was cold and needed more flavor. The chilaquiles were ok. Service was good tho, waitress was friendly

    Great and delicious food. This is authentic Mexican food. We ordered carnitas, tortillas, cactus, menudo soup and hibiscus water. The girls were attentive, courteous and nice. It was crowded but it’s worth the wait. And the best: IT WASNT EXPENSIVE AT ALL.

    We get carnitas from here almost every weekend and have for several years now. It is the best I have found! The green salsa is good!

    Really good experience, a small menu with big flavors. Their menu is simple and to the point. The asada was the best I have tasted very flavorful. We ordered asada tacos and chorizo gorditas and both were really good. Staff was polite, one spoke limited English, but she got a gentleman who could better help us. Service was great and any questions we had were answered kindly. We didn't realize this place was here we were about to eat nextdoor and parked in front of their building realizing it was also an eatery. Pretty happy it happened that way!

    The food was outstanding. Honestly best tortillas in town and the meats are cooked to perfection. I’m originally from New York and this food was the best I had! Totally recommend their gorditas, tacos and menudo. Can’t wait to go back and try more dishes

    Service was seamless - we needed a 35 person office catered “grab and go” style and they rose to the challenge! We received pans of tacos, quesadillas, taquitos and tamales - all ready to be bagged up and handed to employees. The toppings were delicious and plentiful - def recommend and can’t wait to visit in person once COVID is over!
