Hear from our valued guests
We heard about the spectacular taco salad, my wife had steak I had chicken and I also had a chicken taco. not sure what it is but that special sauce is Is fantastic and has great flavor. Cool little place not super fancy but very comfortable and the owner is always Is available for conversation.
Eating delicious food while catching up with friends is one of the best feelings in life. Found this place and decided to give it a try. I was very intrigued by the bone marrow tacos as it sounded exotic. The gentleman at the counter explained in detail how the bone marrow is prepared and took all the hesitations out. It was a great choice! Didn't taste weird at all and it was so delicious, it felt like the steak melted in my mouth! If you are curious and willing to try new foods, you won't be disappointed! The 2 taco order portion is huge and we had enough for a second meal! Will definitely return again!
Awesome place. Happy I randomly stumbled across them. Chill vibes and the food hit. I got the steak taco fries and oh man they where so good. The steak was not over cooked had good flavor. Fries where unbelievably crispy and stayed that way through the meal. The salsa and sauces where good. Definitely check them out 10/10
This place is a solid go-to. I’ve only placed pick up orders. Already ready and hot when I get there. I’m greeted with friendly smiles. We tried the bone marrow tacos, steak tacos, side grilled veggies, chicken fries, and a chicken taco salad. Every dish explodes with flavor. This was our first time trying bone marrow. It was interesting. Everyone loved them. The grilled veggies were done perfectly. Alllllways a pleasure picking up food here. I love the short conversations.
This place is AMAZING. We got the bone marrow plats and bone marrow and steak tacos and they were phenomenal. I’m pretty sure bone marrow releases endorphins because I was on a 30 minute food high afterwards. It’s so good. We found our new spot. You cannot go wrong here and Noah is a stellar individual. Support small business and have the food of your life.
This place is a good little spot, not something you would expect to be so popular. Its in a quiet part of town so not much noise around. The restaurant is not too big, could probably seat 20-25 maybe. The service is great, always on top of everything, making sure you have everything. The food is unique. Not your traditional mexican style tacos. They have a different flavor profile, one thats more creamy and zesty, and juicy. Meat is cooked and seasoned to perfection. The beans are good quality. The elote is the best ive had. The corn is super juicy and flavorful. Overall a great experience, 10/10 would reccomend. Not too crazy expensive. You get what you pay for.
Have only been there once. So good I will be returning. My chicken taco salad was the best I've ever had. Everything was delicious. My date had beef tacos with rice and beans. He loved his lunch as well. Woohoo, new fave. 5 stars
The food here is surprisingly excellent. The flavors are great. I really appreciated the fresh yellow squash, cooked to perfection along with great tasting rice the meat I expect to be good but My chicken plate exceeded expectations I love the spices they were just right and the Crema Topping everything off it was like eating a gourmet meal for fast food prices. the young man who waited on me was lovely. He explained everything was very Friendly and made sure that the pick up order was given to the gentleman right away so he didn’t have to wait around while his food got cold. I was impressed with that. It is smaller and rustic, but wow, it’s really good food I will definitely be back with friends and family or for take out
Quick service, comfortable and the tacos were perfect. I have been dealing with digestive issues recently and this place didnt upset my stomach! I love that it was clean tasting frwsh ingredients, and not all greecey. Highly reccomend!
My best friend and I decided to have lunch and this was our first time coming here and this is our experience. The owner was very nice, respectfully, and engaged with us during our time here. The restaurant was clean and peaceful. The owner was social and made sure we felt at home. The hospitality was on point and the food was amazing. I had the bone marrow plate and it was so fulfilling and so good. I also got the birria taco and carnitas taco and I was so stuffed. The food is well seasoned and overall the experience was great. Definitely will come again to support.
