"Stopped in to get a bite to eat, originally I only wanted a taco but then I added guacamole and ended up having a full chips & dip. A simple miscommunication but it resulted in a really delicious lunch. The sauces brought out with chips were tasty, the meat in the taco was divine, ugh it was so good and if I might say made me feel like I was on vacation!! The guacamole was full of flavour and the chips were chipping!! I will be coming back!"

"Had dinner here for the first time tonight. The front entrance is under construction but they are open for business. A few people were already eating tacos and other dishes. The waitress was extremely polite and welcoming. I ordered a menudo, which is tripe soup. Interesting flavor! The chef came out later and asked how I liked it -he mentioned he makes it in Guadalajara style, where he's from, instead of cuidad de Mexico. There was a Latin American movie playing on the big screen. I hope to come back and try other items on the menu."

Will absolutely be returning but this time for dine in. No questions asked you have to try this place. The best"

"Great new spot to the area. Very cozy dining room with a full view of the kitchen. Taco Dorados are very delicious and extra crunchy. Birria tacos tasted great, however they are not fried as crispy as other restaurants will do."

"The sauce was the star of the night. We were served by very nice people. Our server were beyond the service; he was such a kind guy. The foog was delicious. We ate Birria, sopes, and an order of tacos al pastor. The Michelada wasn't that perfect, but good enough."

"Food is bomb! Such sweet owners who care alot and are passionate about food. We accidentally ordered food when they were close to closing, yet they made food for us still. Our favourites were the guacamole and al pastor tacos. We also got the birria tacos, enchiladas and the pozole. The owners are so passionate about food it made my day, give this place a try! They care about making their food healthy as well we had a corn dessert that was gluten free and it was delicious. This place is authentic and deserves all the love! Also try their strawberry drink if they have it, we really loved it it was so yummy!"
