The meat in these tacos was outstanding, with not one speck of gristle.. Homemade and better than my homemade. Perfect little diced onions that were sautéed or cooked with the meat so every bite was delicious. Cilantro & onion in the consummé was ideal. Order at the counter but food is served to your table, usually with a little bowl of chips and salsa.

My fiancé and I were looking for a new place to try. We had driven past a different restaurant and…read moredidn't see good reviews. We ended up finding this place and I'm so glad we did! The restaurant is in the parking lot next to a tire shop so we missed it the first time however, not too hard to find. Lots of ample parking in the evening. Loved that their hours sign had they were closed Mondays to "recharge"! Made me want to go in even more. Upon entering, we were received with such a friendly and warm greeting by Anna. She helped take our order and had us sit. It is an order at the window inside, then take a seat (pay at the end). My fiancé got a shrimp burrito, I ordered the shrimp in garlic butter sauce. OMGGGG! Mouth watering. The presentation on my dinner plate was beautiful. Oh, and their tortillas are home made! I ordered an extra side. Really great food and service - can't wait to go back.

I understand wanting to get things cleaned up, but turning off essential cooking equipment that early while you're still open is ridiculous. You definitely lost my business tonight. I won't be coming back. That's just bad customer service.

Came here because of the good reviews. The ambience is…read morenice...a very small restaurant with Mexican decor. Cute. I didn't like that the booths are in poor condition. The seats have some really huge gashes and the filling is sticking out. My hubby ordered a chili verde wet burrito. I'm always nervous when we order chile verde or chile rojo because it can be a hit or miss. this burrito did not disappoint. A really big size burrito. Meat meat was super tender. Yummy flavor! On the weekends the offer homemade tortillas. The chips and salsa that came out first was a great start. The chips came out warm and the salsa had a nice kick to it. We will definitely be back to try other items on the menu. Service was a little dry but friendly.

The lady behind the counter greeted me soon after she saw me. It was my first time here so I had some questions about the menu. I ended up getting the shrimp burrito and two tacos plate with rice and beans. Shrimp burrito had 10 shrimps and great flavors... it was indeed very tasty... wowza! My kind of burrito LOL. As for the tacos, they were okay... beef and chicken were a tad dry. Beans were very moist and yummy. Rice on the other hand was a tad tough... not fluffy enough. They have a salsa bar... their salsas are very authentic in taste and flavor! Btw, they have a 3 feet burrito. Look up! Staff was very nice and friendly. Ambiance was quite clean and comfortable. I highly recommend this taco place for the connoisseurs who love Mexican food. See you here!

The salsas were not bland and they were not so watery they taste just like grandmas salsa on point. The white rice was very good and didn't taste like water. The chicken was very good/fresh.

Visited this great restaurant again! Had the shrimp cocktail (mexican style). It was so delicious…read moreas the sauce was a perfect blend of tomato juice and spices (not hot). You can squeeze lemon or lime in the cocktail or add hot sauce. Three fresh oysters were included. I love those but they could have been colder. Served with a beautifully ripe avocado on top and professionally cut cucumber, onion and cilantro, Yum!! The shrimp were good size and good texture (not mushy). My friend ordered cheese enchiladas. She orders them without sauce but the cook did a great job preparing them and she said they were perfect. The enchiladas came with beans and rice and we ordered salads that were extra. It was all tasty with fresh lettuce and good salad dressing (we had italian and ranch). Service was so so. We were there midday and it seems many restaurants are this way at this time of day. Not sure if it's because they send servers home and there are not as many to wait on customers or they have side duties that take them away from serving, but it's typical and frustrating. I will say the first bus boy was not good seemed very unhappy and never smiled but then a second bus boy showed up and he was smiling, helpful, friendly and saved the day!!
