“ Taco Tuesday $1:50 tacos, Carnitas ,chicken or pastor, They taste great, they have Juice that is made with cucumbers and sugary but it's good too, thank you very much guys ”
“ Truthfully I will give it five stars. The food was fantastic. My wife ordered a chimichanga, and I ordered enchiladas. The burrito was huge and smothered with cheese, I think why most customers don't order that holy cow. And the enchiladas came with rice, beans and salad w/ sour creme, and four, instead of two enchiladas. I was resigned at first because I'm used to enchiladas being smothered in red sauce. These ones were not, however when I took my first bite of them omg my taste buds were estatic. So tasteful it was. It is ineffable. Lol. They have a poor man there, however, he greets the customers and opens the door for you. I needed to use the bathroom and he told me it's on the counter. Honestly that is why I give them a five star rating. I would definitely recommend the chimichanga. See attached ”

“ Came here randomly one night and it was so crowded that we knew it was going to be good! We ordered the asada super nachos and a bunch of asada tacos. Delicious! We loved the green salsa ”
“ This is a down and dirty fantastic taco spot. Are used to come here a lot when it was much smaller and there was a little bar that I would sit out and watch them cook and I like that much better but good for them that they’ve expanded. I’m sure all of their stuff is great but I only ever order the tacos because they are so damn good. One of my favorite things two is the Chili and Salsa. I love love the really hot red sauce and the green sauce is good and the sauce that comes with the chips . My chips were terrible today, but I just chalked it up to a whatever moment. It is one of those places though that I’m like reluctant to touch the refrigerator getting my coke out because it was sticky and kind of gross and the door glass was dirty and gross and the handles so I feel like they could do a little bit of cleaning and scrubbing. But like I said down and dirty tacos ”
