Fresh tortillas and the food is delicious. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, it makes me feel like I'm with my family. It's become my spot for the Friday morning taco run.

I LOVE this place so much. I love their tortillas. When I went I saw that they pressed and cooked the tortillas for my tacos right there on the spot. So good 🤤. Employees are very friendly and respectful as well.

Food is great. Home made tortillas are being made as you place your order. The location is a small building that everyone crams into to place their order.

The oder was quick my husband had to go to work but this morning he decided to go out to eat. So time was what we were worried about wow they were awesome the tacos were very delicious 😋.

This is my favorite place to get tacos. I rate based on how well the Bean and Cheese taste. If you can’t make a good bean and cheese are you even a Mexican restaurant. This is the spot to be at. Rosy the cashier is the sweetest lady ever. The Green salsa is the best I dip my taco that sauce. Must try you won’t be disappointed.

These tacos were GOOD. Salsa was really good as well, although I wish I got more than 2 for my four tacos. We had ham and egg with cheese and papa rancheras with egg and avocado. Delicious. The tortillas were soft, and the tacos were stuffed. They prepared the tacos quickly and I was out the door in less than 10 minutes. My only critique, no sweet tea. I will definitely be back.

Great taco joint. Simple, fresh, and delicious! While there is only limited seating outside, this place is designed for carry out. Dont let the limited seating keep you from enjoying great homemade tortillas, fresh food.

We love this place. It's clean!, serves "homemade" food, and always consistently tastes good. Everyone is always nice, and the orders are made fast even when they are busy. Great that we can eat outside, our daughter likes to chase the birds. No complaints! ( Knock on wood!). Please don't change!

The food is actually good, tasty. The diner area is outside and even it has rooftop that can't be always good, it depends of the weather. But food, definitely worth it!

The food is delicious but the taco servings are smaller than the average tacos. The service is great as well. Location and atmosphere can use improvement. Will definitely return when on that side of town.

This place has great tacos. They have homemade tortillas and the food is fresh and hot to order. There is no indoor seating, but they do have large picnic tables outside. The food is very tasty, so delicious and the prices are very affordable. I will recommend this place to anyone that eats... Lol You can order by phone and pick them up. That's probably the fastest way to get your food as this place is that good that they are ALWAYS full of people. Go get your breakfast, lunch tacos there.

Beans were not refried well or seasoned. Smashed aguados . I order bean and beacon tacos.

Price on the menu are totally different than cashier price. I told the cashier why the price increase than the price on menu and she just mumbles which I don't understand and they even charge another fee as convenience fee with a sale tax. For example: bean and cheese taco are $2 each and sausage and egg are $3. That's expensive! I could get it cheaper elsewhere and what more is that taco are alot smaller than paid for.. I'm won't ever go back there again. Totally ripped off!

We had morning tacos today February 20th, the order included 1 potato w/eggs and 5 different other tacos but do not order this because you will be disappointed like we were. Come on I know prices go up but why should we get less for what we order.
