Food is good The only thing that I saw is they take a long time to make your food five stars

Tried the quesabirria and the birria ramen, both goat, via Uber eats. Fantastic flavor for both the quesabirria and the ramen, good mix of lean and fatty meat. Good portions. I appreciated the included salsas, chili oil, and generous portions of cilantro/onion/limes on the side. Can't speak to the atmosphere or service yet as I ordered delivery, but I'll definitely be stopping by soon to try more of the menu.

Great little taco place. Only had one problem there, and they were willing to fix my food without hesitation. Little pricey, but worth it!!

The food was good, but I had to send my first plate back because I asked for ground beef due to not having any bottom teeth , and they made it with carne asada. Other than that it was delicious

the people who work here are amazing, great customer service. even though it was hard to communicate because of primary language they all showed a smile and tried their best to understand. the food was amazing too!

I personally really loved the food here, but more than that is the honest and kind staff who work here. I accidentally left my Nintendo switch on the floor under my table when I came here and they were very kind, in that they found my switch, proceeded to hold it and protected it. I appreciate that so much, because I honestly believed my system was gone. Absolutely wonderful!

I’m from AZ and have grown accustomed to really good, authentic Mexican food. I hadn’t found anything local yet that even came close, so I asked around and was sent here. I never would have found this place on my own. As mentioned in other reviews, it is a bit of a hole-in-the-wall. I ordered a couple of tacos which were DELICIOUS! They were made with homemade tortillas. The server brought out cilantro, onions, and lime, as well. Others in my party were pleased as well. I may order sopes next time, as just looking at them made mouth water. I’ll be back soon.

The atmosphere is like a hole in the wall restaurant. I had the carne asada burrito, it was good and came with hot sauces. I think I paid 10.00 bucks.

I have been curious about this place for a long time I have heard good things but never tried until Saturday 5/29/22 I ordered a carna asada burrito this burrito was huge it was good flavor was ok but it didn't give me that what. I will go back again and try something else another time. I gave it four stars for there cleanliness, large amount of food and homemade tortillas

Great tacos and friendly service. Food is made when you order. It might take a minute to get your order but it is worth the wait. Prices are affordable too.

Pretty standard Mexican food next to a minimart. I ordered 3 sopes. 1 Carne and 2 al pastor. Took about 20 minutes to come out on a not very busy Friday afternoon. It was OK. A bit hard, and the al pastor was just ok. Carne was pretty good. I paid 12 dollars for this. I took 2 home for my kids. The lady working behind the counter was very nice, even boxed up my food with her bare hands..with no gloves.

The tacos de chivo were great!! And I don't like goat meat but these were bomb!! There was no place to sit really. We had to share a table with strangers and I'm not apposed to that...it was just awkward. Other than that the food is pretty good and I'm sure we will be back!

We probably won’t go back, but we did see a lot of people come in and out while we were there, so a lot of people seem to love it. Just not right for us. We didn’t finish our food, and went to get a burger.

Food is great. They need to work on opening their restaurant on time. Showed up at opening time and still waited about half hour and still not opening. Just wasting people's time and losing business.

Never got to order stood at register for 10 minutes left called and asked if they were open they said yes told them I would come back in restaurant did and still nobody rang bell still nobody called again and no answer ??? Crazy

Pros: - Food is okay. Nothing special. - Quick wait time Cons: - Salsas are all watered down - Prices on menu do not reflect actual prices you will pay - Restaurant is very dirty. Old dirty and pain chipped walls, along with exposed sauces sitting on tables with spoons. - TV they had with music videos was very loud and continuously cuts out. When it cuts out, there is loud static like when we had old style box TVs. My bad experience: I came here and was charged $10 per quesadilla even though the menu said $5. When I asked the guy working there if the $10 charge meant rice and beans were being included (since we had asked him about this before) He said yes, rice and beans were included. When I got home, there were no rice and beans. I paid $20 for two plain quesadillas even though the menu said they were $5 each. I'm more upset that the employee lied to my face when I asked him about the rice. I even left a cash tip for them before I got my food in hopes of good service. Guy working there was on shift 10/19/22 at around 6:00pm. He was in the store working alone. Overall - 3.8/10 There are way to many better places to visit than here. Salem and Woodburn is packed with amazing Mexican food. Do not recommend.

This has been a family favorite for years and we had never had a problem until this last visit. This last visit was horrible service with the lady at the front they forgot our order and made us wait 30mins for no food.

We are told that the food is good... but after an hour we have no idea. We were given a table but never informed that you have to order at the register. Service is extremely slow. The server came to a dirty table to take the tray in which the limes, radishes and onions are served but left all the dirty dishes... that extremely fishy to me... will they reuse this?? also there is no restroom. You have to use the restroom next door. What is up with that?? Very very dissatisfied. Do not go there hungry...
