They have expanded their restaurant!! So happy to see their business thriving!
Gina G.

They have expanded their restaurant, come show some love to them! Well deserved accomplishment, especially when there are 100+ other competing Mexican restaurants in the area.

We always come here for tacos and shrimp cocktail. The steak tacos and intestine tacos are some of our favorites! But today we try to order something new, and it's still good as always. This is the only mexican food restaurant that we trust! I highly recommend this place!

Amazing place to eat food is great. Service is great. Definitely a spot to visit if your in the area

Carne Asada and El Pastor tacos.

Authentic, yummy, you need to try this place out! We've eaten here many times and love the food. It's a tiny space but when the majority of the customers are Mexican, then you know you've stumbled into the RIGHT place. The staff is super nice, the menu choices are broad, and the sauces are spicy! My kids share some steak nachos because it's a huge plate, while the hubby opts for street tacos as steak and El Pastor. The sauces that come with this are super spicy. My only wish is that this place was larger. You can find this place in the plaza off Pleasant Hill Rd in front of the Hmart.

Great tacos, 3 for only $7.42! I got the carne asada, chorizo, and Al pastor. The carne asada was too oily but the chorizo and Al postor were great!?

Are you down to try some delicious Mexican food this week? Try one of my favorite Mexican restaurants; I love the staff here, they're also giving away free chips and salsa with your to-go order during this COVID-19 crisis. I love their Carne Asada A La Mexicans which is basically Strip Steak, Peppers, onions, mushrooms and jalapeños served with rice and beans $9.99

My god this place is amazing. This is probably the best taco joint in Duluth. Right next to Scissorhands in front of Hmart, it's a small but cute little place. It's almost always busy too, but the servers are so friendly and you can tell they genuinely care about the restaurant. We've only ever had the tacos here and up until about a month ago, you could still get a taco for less than $2. Most were $1.75-$1.95 which is insane considering how much meat they pack inside. When they went up to $2.25 each, I was honestly happy. They're worth even more than that. Tacos with the pastor (pork) meat are the best in my opinion but my husband will get the steak, tripe, and lengua (tongue) as well. The meat is just cooked perfectly. JUICY and TENDER, packed with flavor. They're simple tacos: double corn tortilla, onion, cilantro, lime but what more do you need? The freshness is unreal. Get the GREEN sauce. They have both green and red salsa. Both spicy but the green is just straight fire, in the best possible way. Calling for a to go order can be tricky around rush hour because they're just so busy and there isn't really a dedicated host/phone answerer but it doesn't matter. Just show up and wait. It's WORTH IT.

A *fire* hole in the wall taco joint. Recently this place has been extremely busy so prepare for crowds as it's a small space. I got the ceviche tostada and a bunch of the various tacos to try. They also have delicious agua frescas! All of the staff is super kind and chatty. Food came out pretty quickly. Free chips and salsa for the table. Interiors are so cute, and make it seem like you're eating outside, surrounded by colorful houses and buildings. Would definitely come here again.

Guacamole

We came around 6pm on a Wednesday and it was a very nice environment, very peaceful, music on but not too loud just softly playing. Our servers were very welcoming and the service was really good since they kept making sure we were doing okay! The supreme fajita nachos were DELICIOUS! Very good portions of food! The taquitos plate was also delicious, the flavor of the chicken taquitos was good, they weren't too crunchy and not soft they were just right! Asked for guacamole on the side and it did not disappoint! Only thing I'd add is more limon. We also had an agua de Jamaica and it was really good! If you don't like sweet water it might not be fit for you though. But the mango water was really good and not too sweet!

Chicken tacos

I have been going here for years! The food is always delicious and I'm always happy! Normally when I go out to eat, something is always messed up....but here? I have never once had a problem! My absolute favorite is the chicken tacos 2 corn tortillas big pieces of chicken so you know exactly what you are eating and the quality! It is a bit small, but quick to seat you and sooooooo worth any wait! Don't forget to-go is an option!

Chilaquilas, yum!!

See all

Food was bland. Service was rushed. Waiters were rude ASF! They remodeled recently, they should have remodeled their attitudes.

Are they open? Keep calling number and it has a fax sound..

They should be open, but like others have mentioned, it's only takeout right now. The line might just be busy if you're hearing that.
