Portions are the perfect big size. Theres a chip bar where you can get chips, multiple salsas, picked jalapenos & carrots and pico de gallo. The Quesabirria's always leave me full and taking some home. Service is going up to a counter and they give you a little device that beeps when your food is ready. Plenty of seating although it was a bit hot in there. We brought in my family of 4 and we paid around $50 for all of us! This place is definitely one more people should be talking about.

The prices on the menu weren't updated, so I wasn't sure how much anything costed - it just showed as "88.88" on every item. We ordered a taco combo, birria burrito, and a Mexican coke which came out to ~$27. We ended up waiting close to 40 minutes for ours to come out. Unfortunately, the hype fell short for us. The salsa cups were barely half full, and mostly more spice than flavor. The tortillas on the tacos and burrito weren't toasted - they fell apart while we holding them. The birria burrito came with a consommé that was great, but the burrito itself was wrapped poorly. The meats in each of the items were fine, but not as great as the reviews praised them to be. Perhaps we got them on a bad day? All in all, it's an okay taco truck.

The food came out hot, tasty, and well prepared, and the price felt fair for the quality. The restaurant was spotless, and the staff were on task and friendly, which makes a difference. We tried the wet burrito and a Queso Birria taco. I love a good burrito bañado, and this one was good. It's generously loaded with cheese, which some folks will call awesome. Personally, I prefer a little less cheese and more sauce, and the sauce could have used a little more green zing. Just my taste, though! The taco was hot crispy and tasty. One small gripe: the plastic silverware was too flimsy and made eating a slightly saucy burrito less enjoyable than it should have been. Sturdier forks would go a long way. Overall, a great lunch stop. This strip of Chinden is excellent, too, with Guido's and Boise Thai right next door. I'd happily come back.

I always get an Horchata and Tacos de Res (beef). Everything on them includes cilantro and onion.

Theres shade available but not a problem for me as I do takeout. Prices are always reasonable, I'm fluent in Spanish and have only ever ordered in Spanish, I know for sure the staff does have at-least someone with good English working.

My first time here, I tried the barbacoa, asada, and al pastor. They were... just okay. The barbacoa was incredibly dry, and the other tacos had a very unremarkable flavor on first bite. Salsa was definitely required to give it some kind of oomph. Should have checked because they only gave me one tiny lime wedge for 3 tacos. meh I might give it another try for fish, adobada, and cabeza or lengua. Not everyone makes everything great. I'll let you know what I find out. It covered outside seating is pretty decent, but it is in a parking lot abutted against a busy intersection. So the ambiance can be kind of meh, which is probably why so many people took theirs to go. They have buzzers you keep with you, so you know when your food is ready.

I'm a bit of a beer enthusiast, so I'm biased when it comes to the drink menu, but I really appreciated that they have unique beers on tap you don't find everywhere. It's a refreshing change from the same old Boston Lager and domestic beers that seem to be on tap at every other restaurant. If I had one criticism, it would be to please clean the air vent above the TV at the bar. The dust buildup is pretty thick and looks like it's about to fall onto the bartop. That said, everything else we saw was clean and well kept, so this seemed like an isolated maintenance issue rather than a cleanliness problem. We'll definitely be back!

We came on a Saturday night and it was busy but not overly busy, which was nice. I started the evening with their regular house margarita, which was a bit too sour for my liking so our waitress suggested ordering a flavored margarita to add sweetness. I went out of the box and ordered their hibiscus margarita and WOW I'm coming back for more!! We were disappointed in their house salsa, but we did order a ceviche appetizer which was very fresh tasting. I really appreciated all the very fresh vegetables in the ceviche. My husband ordered the steak fajitas- amazing! I ordered the veggie enchiladas on flour tortillas- amazing! I appreciated how they have a side of carne asada that you can order. It was perfect for our young son who wanted steak. Our son also appreciated the Jarritos flavored sodas. Lastly, we were disappointed in the fried ice cream as it didn't have much flavor and the melted caramel it came with tasted like goat cheese. Prices were reasonable, service was good, and restaurant was nice and clean. Yes, I'll be coming back :)

A decent Selection of lunch menu offerings, I went with Chili Verde, pork in green sauce, eithucorn tortillas. We ordered chips and salsa, interesting because it's not complimentary as in so many Mexican places, is one hotter yellow sauce with pineapple, a typical medium sauce, and a mild, plus beans were ordered. The chips were gold, house made, the yellow sauce was definitely good, would probably be great on fish tacos, but the medium red was what I preferred with chips. Lunch arrived with the obligatory "hot plate" warning meaning it had bern in the oven. As always, I started by trying the rice and beans, v both were good enough I nearly finished them before even trying the Chili Verde. What was interesting here was I wanted to use the larger than average sized corn tortillas to get every bit of the verde sauce off the plate! Something, we were too busy talking to tell, was different. I don't ever remember wanting to sop all the sauce up with the tortillas before! Would I come back, yes, there is enough that looked interesting to return.
