This place opened in Sept 2019. I never kneW. It was recommend by a frIend so I stopped by…read more I was pleasantly surprised. Very clean , brightly lite, lovely staff, very attentive. Food selection is standard Mexican food with loads of specials. For our first visIt we opted for two tortas. My son had the carne asada torta and he suggested I rate a 4.5. I had the Milanesa de res. All I have to say is we made great choices. The food was fresh, fast and delicious. ThIs is definite new favorite. Ample parking in a small strip mall. Next to a laundromat. I told them to put a flag sign on the curb but they said the villagee did not allow it. It's up to you fellow Yelpers try it out and spread the word. I will add pics next time we ate the food before pics LOL

Personally, my first impression of this place with that night out made me want to come back out! I know some reviews didn't really agree, but I really enjoyed it and will be back. If you haven't tried coming, I'd say give it a shot. It has a chill ambience, and the live music makes it even better.

Their rice was delicious not super dry or soggy. The chilaquiles felt more like I was eating nachos since they tortillas weren't soaking enough in the sauce. They weren't spicy had good flavor. The people taking our order were kind and friendly and the establishment is clean the only issue here is they don't have a bathroom. So if you need to use the restroom you're out of luck.

I usually go down the street but a friend wanted to bring me here. I read some bad reviews and was…read moreworried. But I'm not sure why there seems to be some really unhappy reviews.. especially the ones that mentioned small meat portions. I'm sure they may have been valid but my experience was the opposite. I had a 3 taco combo and I was stuffed. I didnt try the carne asada but usually steak tacos have some fat. Instead I got 2 cesina tacos and an el pastor taco. The el pastor was juicy and flavorful. I didnt get any chunks of pineapple but I only had the 1 taco. The cesina was not fatty and had great taste. We got a side of grilled green onions and I had a strawberry shake which was airy and not dense, but had nice bits of strawberry in it. Topped with what looked and smelled like cinnamon and maybe nutmeg. The salsas are your typical red and green. Not ridiculously spicy and had good flavor. I'm totally coming back. Servers were very nice but one minor thing, we never got the chips we ordered. Parking lot is shared with another business so it got a little crowded at 1pm on a sunday.

I used to love coming here, the tacos were fresh and delicious. No longer true, based on my visit…read moretonight. We ordered a variety of tacos, meat-wise. Steak, carnitas, chorizo, pork belly, and pastor. The tacos were consistently bad. The meats were dry, lacked juiciness, cold, and greasy. It was pretty shocking how bad the meats were. The tortillas were cold and flavorless, and their stiffness made the tacos difficult to swallow. The drinks were overly sugary. The rice and beans that accompanied the tacos were cold and bland. Just everything was awful. And, to top it off, I encountered a crawler of some kind on my way to the cashier to pay my bill. I stomped on the bug, but it just left a bad taste on an already awful dining experience. Stay away, there are far better places to get your taco fix.

We shared some avocado rolls which were kind of like egg rolls filled with avocado. These are filling and very shareable. I had the sopes with steak for my entree and the beef was nicely seasoned. The house made hot sauce was excellent on these and the beans and rice. I had the flan for dessert which was quite good. Service was good, and it was strangely quiet on a Friday night with commercials for allergy eye drops running on a loop on television screens...but other than the slightly eerie vibe, the atmosphere is casual and relaxed.

I've even been to other locations and they all have satisfied me. I will say the last time I came here, my taco salad order was messed up.

I was craving for tripe tacos and i like them crispy. The tripe they gave me was stale and old. My boyfriend complained and they replaced one and i chose steak.

No one is expecting nice and lean no oily tacos but these were greasy, thankfully since the tortilla was thick and handmade it could hold up and wasn't tearing at all. Flavor wise it was great and people at the front are always great. Its a nice little vibe inside and service has always been good. Their grilled chicken is what they are known for and its definietly soooo good (not greasy btw just the asada tacos lol)
