TL;DR: great and affordable food to satisfy your cravings! Taco meat is satisfying! The excellent food safety rating is definitely a plus! Great for dine-in for a quick bite or ToGo. The tacos are $2 each and I'd say about 6-8 are pretty filling for me. They come with 2 different containers of sauces, both were too spicy for my tastebuds but they were flavorful nonetheless. All tacos contain the meat of choice along with, chopped white onion, cilantro and some pickled carrot and radish on the size. I was really impressed with the meat flavors and texture. Each taco really didn't need sauce because the meats were salted and flavored enough -- just a squeeze of lime did the trick for me! The texture of the meats really wowed me -- slightly crispy on the outside and not burnt at all but still tender on the inside. Very satisfying! Also, big fan of the double taco layer to prevent rips and unnecessary loss of taco bowels. No Taco Tuesday specials because every day is special, haha. Parking: small shared lot with the gas station: Atmosphere: located inside the mini mart of the gas station, limited counter height tables and chairs. Service: order and pay at the front, your order will be called. Kid Friendly: no high chairs. Menu: located above the cash register and above the pick up zone. Horchata: was too sweet in my opinion. It also has dairy in it for anyone sensitive -- they used sweetened condensed milk. There was a hint of cinnamon in it but no ground cinnamon in the drink itself -- it was pure white. I'm assuming cinnamon sticks were infused into the rice milk instead.

Glad we found another great Mexican food spot nearby. This is inside of a deli but the food is tasty and the portions are sizable (see the pollo asada pic). Tacos, mulitas were all fantastic. Carne asada might be a little tough. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20

A must try taco spot located in a store. They have tables to dine in or to go. We ordered the asada and pollo taco plate. The tacos were tasty. You have to order at the store cashier then move over to the dining area for pick up. Very good Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
Good Mexican food. Strong flavors. Their lengua plate tasted really good although a little bit salty. Their camarones a la diabla tasted a little buttery. Still all good. Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
Went here for lunch, I was confused a little as it’s located inside the mini mark. Their tacos are very flavorful and delicious, the enchiladas are dried and cheesy. Customer service is super friendly. Meal type Lunch Price per person $30–50

How have I missed this place the past couple of years? I live within walking distance! I am always on the hunt for a good breakfast burrito locally and when traveling. I ordered the chorizo and egg burrito and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was that kind of chorizo that is crisped up perfectly and has the deep red oil. I am looking forward to my next morning visit!

The food is AMAZING. The cooks are great and so kind. However, the lady on front (the owner) is not so kind. She has an arrogant attitude (Respectfully). It sucks that we have to order with her since the cooks are renting with her, but the food was 10/10 Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20
The food was very good and was quick. I had the pescado which was perfect. Although, I was looking for the Mojarra Frita. My kids had the chicken and steak fajita which they enjoyed. My husband's camerone diablo looked delicious and he had no complaints.The staff is very friendly. Overall, we had a good experience and we will come back.

The carnitas burrito and their red and green salsa are really good. I always get it when I come here. The bad part is that the restaurant worker always shakes the tip jar expecting tips whenever he hands you your food, making it really awkward. They are also really reluctant to give you more salsa when you ask for more. Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
