Is really big and they have a huge variety of Mexican street food dished. I had both tacos and sopes and were amazing. Please give it a try!

    The taste is good, the quality is good, it is clean. It is fast, selection is huge. I do not give 5 stars just because they are not your neighbor's tacos or mexican food, that means something in the taste is missing.

    Overpriced taco venue. Tacos are ok, salsas are good. Convenient if you are looking for fast food. Great service. Flour tortillas are not tasty, corn are.

    Authentic mexican food. I had pork tacos and quesidillas. Amazingly well prepares with a touch of onions, cilantro and guacamole. The service was top notch, quick and courteous.

  • 5/5 Rosma M. 5 months ago on Google
    The tacos were amazing. The portions too big but next time I’ll ask for less. Will come back for sure.

  • 4/5 David R. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Carlos 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to eat with reasonable prices. Only downside is they do not accept American Express.

  • 5/5 Francisco c. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jeff C. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Rosaura Q. 2 years ago on Google
    It was pretty good. Loved the atmosphere. It is considered an upscale restaurant but at the same time it has authentic Mexican food.

  • 3/5 P. Rodrigo M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a taco joint. Nothing special about it. Servers are great, very kind and food brought to your table pretty fast. It's in a relatively safe area of the city, has valet service and the prices are fair.

  • 5/5 Steven C. 2 years ago on Google
    Like our hosts explained, "Nothing is spicy because they want the gringos to feel comfortable when they come. The chili salsas are all on the table." With 4 salsas on the table, you're sure to find the right temperature. Good news for someone like me! Great service too! And the food...delicious! Great atmosphere too! Really felt like a special place. And, Gringos, our hosts reminded us of one important difference in Mexico. You have to ask for the bill when you're ready to leave. If a server in Mexico hands you the bill without you requesting it, they're basically kicking you out!

  • 5/5 Galo G. 3 years ago on Google
    It’s a nice and classic place from the south part of the city. Tasty and good size tacos, tortillas are very good. Service was good as well.

  • 5/5 Gerardo Martín G. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best Mexican food in the area

  • 5/5 Alejandro G. 2 years ago on Google
    I would say top 5 tacos in Mexico City. tortillas are fresh and you get lighting fast service, clean restaurant even for the most picky.

  • 5/5 Lo G. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a must when I visit Mexico. I came on a Saturday night. It’s was a lil bit busy but not crazy. We were sat right away and took out order. They order was ready promptly and you can see how they prepared it. We ordered horchata and tamarindo drinks and they were really flavored. The pastor tacos were the bomb. I will definitely coming back as every year.

  • 3/5 Carlos N. 4 years ago on Google
    Good tacos, very famous place, but their prices have gone to the roof. Be prepared to spend on tacos just as much as you would spend on a good level dinning experience.
