    Ordered 4 birria tacos and consumme; I thoroughly enjoyed the flavor. The only complaint I have is that the tacos didn't come with much meat. The food was ready extremely quick, we only waited about 10 'mins max!! Everyone was really nice. The location is a local Mexican taqueria; very authentic ambiance. My husband opted for the chicken tacos and said it was lacking flavor. I will be back.

    There is a reason people say that you can find some of the best food in the smallest of places. The tacos were amazing. Traditional and full of flavor. Everyone was extremely friendly. Very quick service and the prices are a steal. I will go back to try more of the menu.

    I am on personal quest to find the best taco in the DFW metropolitan area. I will be rating my opinion based on three criteria's. 1. Is as good Sanora style taco. 2. Does it taste good without salsa. 3. Originality to be fair to TEX-MEX style. I will only order beef, pastar, or carnitas since these are the main tacos most people order. Beef Taco was dry and oily which is a characteristic of a street taco sanora style but dryness of the beef was not 2 Pastar taco was much better with a fatty taste however it was not sliced of the kabobs which is a characteristic of pastor 3 star

    Carnitas and Barbacoa. Pretty good, but a little greasy.

    This place is always packed, so we stopped in for a quick snack. It's part store and part restaurant. If you plan to eat there, you can just sit down and someone will take your order. That part could be a little more clear as there is actually another counter where the guy is making the tacos... I got the carnitas and barbacoa, without the onions and cilantro on top. They were both pretty good, but a little greasy (even for that style.) They have two salsas on the table, neither of which were as spicy as I would like, but I am a white girl so maybe they didn't bring out the good stuff. The tortillas seemed fresh and were nicely toasted. I'll stop back by, but get something different. Maybe flautas. :)

    We pass by this place all the time, so we decided to check it out when we had a craving for tacos. It is always packed, so that's a good sign in my opinion. We came in and were a little confused as where to go, but one woman who works there came to assist us. Prior to that, we had walked over to the meat market area. They look to have a good assortment of meats for purchase there. We didn't get any that day, but may be back to get some. They also have a small grocery area as well. Anyway, the woman told us we could go have a seat and she'd bring us menus. There were many tacos to choose from as well as other Mexican dishes. I selected the chicken and the beef fajita tacos. We both ordered ours without cilantro and onions. The tortillas were fresh and tasty. The fajita meat was cooked perfectly and seasoned very well. I do think it's hit or miss on the grease factor, but my tacos were not greasy. Other meats were though. We also had two bottles of sauces to try with our tacos. I wasn't really a fan of either of them. Need more heat in my sauce. Overall, the tacos were good, not great. I know, I know... Maybe if I liked cilantro that would have helped the flavor. Not sure if I'll check it out again or not since there are lots of taquerias in that area. May check out others before coming back here.
