    Birria tacos with other tacos and sides
    Victor E.

    This is my go to spot for tacos and other great Mexican food. The Birria tacos are delicious along with their trompo tacos and the chicharron with guacamole is a must as well. The staff is always really friendly.

    Le doy 2 estrellas porque los tamales me decepcionaron, la verdad fui muy emocionada a comprar mi docena de tamales pero les doy un 6 los tamales están duros la masa aparte están secos,muy grasoso tal vez el guiso pero no me gustaron compré de puerco y pollo siento que la masa no la preparan solo la compran de la tortillería y así los hacen esa impresión me dio, porque la masa estaba demasiado seca, no volvería a comprar de nuevo a menos que cambien su masa y le añadan más sabor, pensé que al llamarse Nuevo León Iván a estar deliciosos pero nada que ver El lugar está muy bonito muy limpio y agradable pero La persona que nos atendió ese día no era nada amistoso muy serio y no me pareció amable le doy un 5

    4 carne asada on flour tortillas.

    My go-to HAS to be the carne asada on flour tortillas. The amount of food you get along with the quality of everything is more than your moneys worth. The sauce bar is really nice and clean. The service is extremely kind and welcoming along with funny workers. Overall 10/10 tacos with very nice ambiance.

    Was finally able to check this place out there spicy pork was so delicious it had so much flavor. There chicken with verde was decent just didn't have the heat I desired. Oh man there Tamal borracho did not disappoint it's a huge tamal with Serranos so it's super spicy and a mix of tamale meats it's so filling!! There concept is simple but hot and fresh tamales by half or full dozen or buy frozen tamales which are cheaper and just as good! Definitely will be returning to try more out on there menu. Y'all check 'em out next time your needing your tamale fix!

We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

A red salsa which was mild and has some nice acidity from the tomato. Then there was a creamy green salsa that had a nice spice. Then finally my personal favorite a great black bean dip. These paired well with the free chips. My partner ordered the queso birria, great flavor and a great consume. Then I had the poblano enchiladas which was the best dish of night! The poblano sauce was creamy cheesy and delicious. There was a nice spiced shredded chicken super tasty. Overall a fantastic restaurant with great service too !

Every order is served on a little tray with chopped onion and cilantro on the side along with a little cup of charro beans. I've had the trompo (al pastor), barbacoa, and carne asada, and they were all incredible and VERY generous on the meat. Elote was decent and (as a fun fact) they have a self serve sauce and cheeto/takis dust area that you can top it off with. The restaurant is directly connected to a dessert shop with an expansive dessert menu and freezers full of $1.50 paletas (I suggest the rice flavor - kind of like a horchata on a stick).

I had written down the order details of what everyone wanted so as to not make a mistake. When ordering, the service person kept repeating back something different from what I was saying. There was a line forming and I couldn't make him take the order faster. When ordering large amounts of food I price out the approx total plus sales tax of that city. The person at the register said that I owed $15 more than the figure I had approximated. When I asked for them to clear the order and put it in again, they became quite nasty about having to do it again. After another employee came and cleared out the order, and it was reentered into the register it had dropped down to being $4 over my estimate. I went ahead and paid just to get my food and go. They said that they were out of receipt paper for the register so I didn't get one. The place was packed so I stood off to the side and waited. And waited. The tables were constantly filled with trash left on them and scattered across the floor. A person would come out from back and remove the trash from the tables, but then wipe them with a dirty looking towel. The floor was never addressed. After 35 minutes I inquired about my order. They said that since it was a big order it was taking time to fill. I went back to waiting. Several Hispanic families that ordered after I had placed my order had gotten their food and were either finishing up or had already left. Must of their food was the same as what I had ordered. After two more inquiries about my order, it was finally delivered after waiting for over an hour. Although I am not totally fluent in Spanish, I know enough when people are talking about me and not in a favorable way. Got home after everyone else had arrived and began sorting out the individual orders. Out of 6 orders, 5 were either wrong or were missing an item. I don't know which was worse, the food being cold, the items swimming in grease (which had congealed), or the burnt and/or gristle rich tortillas and meats. I thought that this place would be great after several people who go there regularly had recommended it, but this was a waste of money and a disaster of food quality. Never again.

At no point did my server tell me that there would be an additional $2 charge for the substitution. Had he told me, I simply would have kept the rice and beans that came with the meal. When the bill arrived, I noticed the extra $2 charge and questioned it. Instead of simply acknowledging that the additional charge had not been communicated to me when I ordered, the server sent the manager over. The manager ultimately refunded the $2, but his attitude was unnecessarily rude. He told me that the menu explains there is a $2 upcharge. Regardless of what may be printed on the menu, when a customer specifically requests a substitution that carries an additional charge, I believe the server should clearly mention it when taking the order. This wasn't really about $2. It was about communication and customer service. A simple, "Just so you know, there's a $2 upcharge for the vegetables," would have prevented the entire issue. Instead, I left feeling like my concern was treated as an inconvenience rather than a reasonable customer-service issue. I will not be returning because of how I was treated.
