Reviews
EDIT: Made plans with a friend to meet here after checking hours on their website to confirm they were open. Was greatly disappointed upon arriving to see a sign on the door in Spanish saying they were standing in solidarity with others in their community and staying closed.
We were disappointed.
They have huge water glasses, which is a bonus for the “heavy drinkers” like me. I ordered two al pastor tacos and one barbacoa. My food arrived quickly and that server (a different one than the person who had taken my order) asked if I’d like salsa. I said sure, then he offered chips! I said sure again. He brought salsa verde and yellow corn tortilla chips. He warned me that the salsa was hot and he wasn’t kidding–but at the same time it was totally addictive. I probably ate 3/4 of the small bowl of salsa, and it was hot enough to clear my sinuses.
The tacos were delicious and authentic, made with two corn tortillas and dressed only with onions and cilantro. The pork al pastor was simply delicious, and even tastier with a bit of the salsa. The lamb barbacoa was surprisingly chewy, verging on tough, but was quite tasty.
The servers took turns checking on me. I was extremely happy with my meal and nearly did a double take when I saw the bill–$10! I felt full and satisfied. I felt like I was underpaying, so I tipped well. I’ll definitely be back!
Slightly questionable location(neighborhood)
Traffic seems to try to run you over. Not the restaurant fault.
The restaurant is hard to tell if it’s open as the neon is up under the awning at the front door. But there are two signs in the doors window letting you know they are infact open but of course you see the neon by this point.
Place was clean both visits ( pre/post 2020)
Last time I ordered tacos….tripe(1) and tongue(2x)… Tripe was very tasty, the latter a bit tough and chewy.
This time I got a Machete!! Not a weapon but a taco…well more like a quesadilla (photos shown). I got it with pork. It was quite tasty and filling for 11$, not bad.
The employees hid in the back while we ate. Which was ok, but no one checked on us after we ordered then received our food. Had to go to the counter to get their attention.
Food is good, location sketchy, service is so-so. A third return?? Possibly, I saw cow feet on something, I got to try it.
