Got a carne asada torta. Asked to not put jalapenos, but somehow was still super spicy. Regardless, it was one of the best tortas I've ever had. The meat was very nicely seasoned and juicy, the torta bread was toasted a little which tasted amazing. Definitely a new favorite for lunch breaks. Can't wait to try the tacos!
Best workers and managers. Sweetest people and great food. Plus always have deliveries on time.
Went to grab a quick bite to eat with my wife this evening. Inside of the restaurant is very colorful and well decorated. They even had a little table of tchotchkes (it didn’t feel out of place at all!) set up. Staff was really nice / friendly / knowledgeable. We ordered their Sunday special (4 tacos, chips / guacamole / rice & beans / 2 margaritas all for $35!) No issue to sub a Bloody Mary for the marg. Bloody Mary mix is made in house and is a must try. Tacos were good, we tried the pork, chicken, and steak. Steak was my favorite but probably a preference thing. All tacos come with side hot sauce bottles, red and verde. All around great experience, will be back for the bloody for sure!
The tacos were delicious and the service was wonderful. I'm from Houston where taco stands and trucks are everywhere so I can definitely tell when the tacos are good and this place is legit. When you go, bring cash because they don't take credit cards.
Walked around the neighborhood looking for a place to eat. Went in on a whim. The tacos are tasty and a bit spicy. The prices are pretty good. Only thing is that it was a warm day and when we went it, the AC wasn't on. So it was much hotter inside than outside. Still a good place for some tacos.
