    Great place for casual Mexican dining. The food was very fresh and had good flavor. The prices are very reasonable. Order meals or a la carte. Friendly service.

    I come here at least twice a week! Their tacos are perfect. Personally, I always ask for avocado & extra limes due to the fact they give you one for three tacos. The meat is seasoned to perfection, I’m drooling writing this, I’m heading there now. REAL AUTHENTIC MEXICAN TACOS. They do not come Americanized meaning (Meat, Cilantro, Onions) No cheese, or lettuce! Yes, Avocado is extra but soooo worth it. Everything is made fresh by order. 😁I’ve provided some tasty photos.

    I ordered through bite squad, prices are a bit high for portion sizes. Rice was mealy and so over cooked, tamale masa super dry but the refried beans and steak tacos were ok. The best thing about this meal was the horchata drink at 3.99 a glass it was a decent size and very good.

    The music, murals, and respectful service made for a great atmosphere and experience. The salsa was ok, but the Tacos, Caldo, and rice was very good! We will definitely eat here again!

    First time ordering pick up at this restaurant. Picked up an enchilada plate and was very disappointed when I got home. The cheese enchiladas were drowned under a salad. When you dug the enchiladas out of the mound of lettuce there was barely any cheese to speak of inside. Worst part was the rice that tasted spoiled, horrible taste. The beans were no better. Overall very disappointed. Had to throw the whole meal away. The friendly staff does not make up for the very, very bad meal.

    I got the shrimp corn tacos which were really tiny and just a plain cheese quesadilla which was one flour tortilla folded in half and it was the mini version my order was over $13 not worth the money. The food was in bad I actually liked it but for the price I don't think I would be going back.

    Wow! Authentic dishes. Home made goodness. Delicious tacos and Taco Rey burrito was the best burrito I have had in a long time. Fast friendly service.

    I had the best and most expensive drinks of my life. We talked with the mixologist who crafted them, and it was a really nice chat.

    I love authentic Mexican and was referred to try this local spot out. The two wait staff were young girls and not only did they not check up to see how we were doing, but I asked twice for hot sauce, and finally when I only had 1/2 a taco left and stared at both girls (who completely forgot about my request), did one of them look at me and rush to grab me my hot sauce. The food is okay; not as authentic as I would like but I do like the fact that they make their tortillas fresh. That was a nice surprise to see. Focus on better customer service and would love to see pickled veggies, some side radishes, really good beans, etc.

    Didn’t get my chips and guac. Should’ve checked my order before I left. So I guess that’s on me as well. However I open my container to find a bunch of fine black hairs so I’m assuming one of the workers has a dog. Needless to say Won’t be eating here again. Absolutely disgusted

  • 1/5 Bethany S. 10 months ago on Google
    The food had absolutely no taste. My family of four each got something different (barbacoa tacos, chicken quesadilla, pork burrito, and steak fajitas) and we all had the same complaint. So disappointed.

    Great food and great woman who work here! They are always so nice and quick with our orders. We come here at least once a week! We love their food.

  • 1/5 Lonzo H. 11 months ago on Google
    Had the nachos and I'm sorry to have say this but it was the worst nachos I've ever had the Staff is very nice but the food needs a lot of work the cheese was totally melted all over the nachos could even pick them up and by the time I got home they were extremely soggy and to think I just sent $40.00 for terrible food NEVER AGAIN!!! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

  • 1/5 Martha B. 1 year ago on Google
    The wait time was craaazy, it took them 40 minutes to bring out 3 tacos (that were overfilled with meat), tried to order a tostada de ceviche and girl said it would take 20 minutes (for something already pre-made). Not to mention the waitress got the order wrong and we had to order again… food tastes old and water kept falling from the ceiling into my food. Good to say it will be my last time.

  • 5/5 Zoey H. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is so good I was coming to this restaurant once or twice a week. I haven’t been going as regularly due to finances but it’s usually fast and has good authentic Mexican food. Pricing is average. You cant go wrong!

  • 1/5 Tim E. 2 years ago on Google
    $28 for two tacos? I guess I will never be back here again. They were tasty but on the small side as well

  • 3/5 Shaun N. 2 years ago on Google
    I all start with the chip and salsa, the salsa was watery like, and it didn't pack much of a punch and was very bland. The food was good but kinda bland. Out of the table of 4 it took a while to get out to everyone. Which was understandable with just 1 cook and grill. But you'd think with a decent amount of people that go there. There would be more cooks and grills at least 2. Personally I'd give it a try seem like a very hit and miss place. But for me it was a miss and could of been better. Service was great though!

  • 4/5 gail b. 2 years ago on Google
    I ordered six Tamales, and they were excellent, however the price for a dozen is probably cheaper, and the hot sauce/dipping sauce was on point! I've watched this establishment grow, I am impressed and happy for them. The ladies filling the orders were very much focused on their jobs and the young lady who took my order was very polite, courteous and efficient. A word of constructive criticism though.....spend some extra time on making sure the dine-in/takeout area is tidy (however, I do understand that it was a very busy dining time). Nonetheless, my experience was great, I love the authenticity of this restaurant, and I will most definitely be back.
