    Great new place to try on a TACO TUESDAY! DISCOUNTED TACOS which are very good! The Shrimp tacos have a very generous portion of shrimp. The guacamole is creamy and packed with flavor. Great food and service!

    We came for lunch not even realizing it was Taco Tuesday! So it was a nice surprise to get a discount. The restaurant is located in a strip plaza on the east side of the street . There's no sign above on the marquis, but you'll see the name spelled out on the windows below. There's ample parking in the free lot. Inside, the menu to me is more Mexican than Cuban. We'd had a lot of meat/steak so although that's what they specialize in (per our server), we chose an order to share of shrimp tacos. We got some complimentary salsa and chips while waiting. The salsa had a slight kick -- more than the usual gringo ones do. There were four tacos to an order with grilled shrimp topped with the traditional (authentic) Mexican style: cilantro and onions only; and the soft tortillas were doubled to make for easier hand holding. We'd also ordered some guacamole which turned out to be wonderful -- flavorful, chunky, and with bits of tomato and onions in it, too. We'd tried it with the chips and then even put some on top of the shrimp. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, then this small restaurant is the place. Enjoy!

    I'm so thrilled we stumbled upon this place!! Absolutely legit Mexican food. Starting off with the chips and salsa- just like our favorite places in New Mexico- crispy fresh and while the salsa isn't hot it's the perfect texture and very flavorful. We got four tacos- a Birria, pastor, carnitas, and a chorizo; all were delicious. My favorite was the chorizo which was surprising for me! It was perfectly balanced with spice and the onion. We also got some red enchiladas which were really good- the red is smoky and again, not wildly spicy but very flavorful. The carnitas were juicy! All in all, we will definitely be coming back for some authentic street style tacos!

    Great find thru Yelp, traveling in new town for a bit and so glad we trusted the reviews, didn't disappoint. Also tried the elote and empanadas, both great and well seasoned. Kind service too, accepts all payments

    Their tacos are amazing! I get them every Saturday. Service was great and super nice. The first time we went there they gave us samples to try. Their horchata is fantastic. Newly renovated with nice decor, and very clean. Love this place and I highly recommend them. The taco deal is pretty good too!

I would hope they take note of what runs out to adjust to demand. The other reason is because some items are pre-made with bacon, which could be part of a dietary restriction, but they had turkey-bacon and turkey sausage which is considerate. The service was amazing though! They were so knowledgeable (they actually caught an ingredient i wouldnt want in one item based on other items i took it off of so they made sure to make me aware so i could take it off! So grateful!). They were also very quick to fulfill my order. I definitely recommend this place for tasty, aesthetically pleasing food.

For dessert, we tried a homemade chocolate chip cookie with candied walnuts, and it was a total surprise homerun. This is the kind of place you come to when you want quality, not speed, and it's absolutely worth it.
