Great steak tacos and burritos! This place never disappoints. Today I had the elotes preparados (corn in a cup) in addition to a steak taco. The corn was in a16 oz cup with the all the usual toppings and they made sure there was enough!

There is not a lot in the way of restaurants on this end of town but we go out of our way to come here. The place is small but the food is so good! When it's open for sit down they have molcajete, an unbelievable cauldron of stewed veggies and meats fit to share with a group of 4 people. The food is authentic, and the staff appreciates it when you speak Spanish, even if it is simple. I like it a lot. Best to carry out, in my opinion.

Service was great... came here while waiting for my car to be fixed next door. Let the cashier know I will be sitting here for a while after eating she asked me if I like tamales and brought me and my bf one on the house. They were awesome!!! I ordered a chorizo burrito dinner. Everything was so good tons of flavor! Salsa verde was also very good! This spot will be my new go to!!!! Definitely recommend trying it out!!

This little location has gone through a few restaurants, but this one might be different. The prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. The al pastor is marinated just right, not that red color and bland tasting like some restaurants and supermarkets. The chorizo is also good. They have an avocado salsa that is really tasty. Give this place a shot you won't be disappointed.

This place has the best tacos and quesadillas around the area. They also have the guac taco salsa which is a must for any taqueria, everything I've tried here has been delicious.
