Wow what a find authentic homemade chicken mole with a complex sauce with many layers of flavor, often including a blend of chiles, spices, nuts, seeds, and chocolate. They also have good carnitas are made from pork, slow-cooked until it’s tender and juicy, then fried or roasted for crispy edges. The beans and rice are some of the best in the area. I was very very impressed.

Pretty good food. Just no menu and was kind of confusing to order food. The staff was very helpful and nice! Cash only though.

The customer service was bomb first of all. The owner Carlos made my food and took my order. He was so kind. He spoke to everyone in the restaurant you can tell he cares. My fries (loaded carne asada fries)were not on the menu but he had no problem making them. He told me he can make anything. I can’t wait to come back and try something new. Also the agua fresca 1/2 pineapple 1/2 Jamaica it was so good y’all.

Nice traditional Mexican restaurant. Great Street tacos and I have to recommend the tostada ceviche! Only downside is they don’t have liquor yet but still a great stop.

It’s a small little hole in the wall where you can tell this is what they do. With a plethora of taco choices to pick from as well as a few other items on the menu. You can clearly tell this is a taco joint the other stuff I’m sure is good but not the focus. With tacos ranging from the generics of steak or chicken up to tongue and cheek. We opted for what I knew my kids would eat. Which was asada(steak) pollo(chicken) and chorizo(pork). They come with a handful of toppings 2 sauces one red and one green the red having a nice smokey flavor while the green tasted as of it had a base of jalapeno but not to much heat, Raw onion, cilantro, lime, and cucumber. The meat was flavorful not over cooked and very juicy while all put into a nice corn tortilla. This is one of the most authentic places I’ve been to since I’ve moved to the STL if I can order in Spanish thats a plus in my book. Will be going back.

Extremely delicious and authentic tacos. I can highly recommend the asada, chorizo, pastor, and pollo. The freshness of the limes they used caught me off-guard in the best of of ways. Service was friendly and genuine. Fairly priced, too.

I’m a chilango too (that’s how people from Mexico City are called) so I was looking forward to try this place. The tacos did not disappoint at all. Great flavors and fairly priced. The suadero was DELICIOUS, crispy and fatty, greasy, just like it’s supposed to taste. Extremely similar to the tacos I miss from back home. Carlos was very friendly, showed me pictures on his phone of the other dishes he makes. I’ll have to do a few more trips to try everything. I had a cucumber agua fresca and it was also great.
