The portions are generous, and the sauce bar is a great touch that lets you customize your plate just the way you like it. So far, I've tried the brisket tostadas and steak tacos--both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. I've heard rave reviews about the al pastor and birria as well (though I don't eat pork), and I wouldn't be surprised if they're just as amazing. The taqueria is cozy, with seating for around 8 tables, and their drinks are all made in-house. I really enjoyed the Jamaica and tamarindo, and they also offer horchata and passion fruit. It's such a great addition to our town--authentic, flavorful, and welcoming. Highly recommend!

I've also noticed that there is no breakfast inside this mall anymore;, not since the Greek place shut down many years ago. The McDonald's down the road stops their breakfast at 10:30 and I think this place would make a a lot of people happy if they sold egg sandwiches for people looking for breakfast whether they work inside the mall, or one of the daily mall walkers, or just somebody looking for a breakfast sandwich in the later part of the morning because they're not ready to have lunch yet. Please take this into consideration!

The food that I got was decent at best, I ordered Barbacoa and Al Pastor Chalupas which were pretty pricey at 15 bucks for two.

I'm writing this review as I am eating the chips and salsa you sent us back to our hotel with! (Thank you!!) I highly recommend ordering some of the salsa verde, our group of 3 all agreed it was some of the absolute most delicious salsa we've ever tasted. The tacos I ate were really good, I like the one with the pineapple, and the chimichurri steak was delicious as well. Went back for a breakfast burrito which was very filling and delicious. Try the pina colada on the rocks! So good! We literally went back twice during our 3 day stay. 10/10 would recommend.
