"Broooo this would be one of the best spots in the tri-county area if I could get a decent repasado. All it's missing is tequila. The corn tortillas had the texture of fresh masa so if they don't make them at the restaurant I need to know what they are buying. Barbacoa tacos on corn tortillas with onion and cilantro is my jam. The quesadillas were good and the burrito alone will knock out them hunger pangs. I would give this place 6 out of 5 if they had margaritas. Edit: 11.28.25 the red sauce hits like my dad when he caught me smoking weed"

"The food is always top quality fresh and tasty, and so are the agua frescas, but the wait time can be pretty long. Customer service is not really a big thing here, and the atmosphere is outdoors with a covered area and some wooden tables."

"They have the best Al Pastor tacos around, this place is fantastic, they sell a good variety of Mexican food including whole chickens. I definitely recommend this place, the staff is super friendly, helpful and very patient with new customers. I definitely recommend the tacos, the agua frescas (Melon or Pineapple) and even the burritos. They are not skimpy at all with her meats, especially when it comes to the tacos and quesadillas. Lastly their salsas are super tasty, my preference is the salsa Verde."
