Food is amazing! By far surpasses any taqueria we've had. Just stopped in for the super taco plate and fresh salsa still excellent and the birria is amazing! Update: still love the food... horchata is watered down too much, not enough flavor. Flies need to be controlled still and bathrooms always need attention. -1 star

I love getting food from here. Everything taste good here. However there's one thing I really don't like. When you order carnitas. They only give you 1 cup with salsa. Why not 2 at least I mean don't be so cheap over that. If you want another you gotta pay for it. It shouldn't be like that i mean 2 can last you for the carnitas you bought. If you buy 2 plates of carnitas. There should be 4 cups of salsa. Because I realized that 1 cup of salsa for the plate isn't enough for the whole plate. It only gets you 6 to 7 tacos of carnitas and it wasted leaving you with some left over.
